Hey there! Just to let subscribers/everyone know, I’ve moved to The-Shizz.com. I wanted to get off WordPress and self-host so I could design and code my own layout (I like doing that kind of stuff.) After two months, I’m finally pretty much done! I had a little too much fun with plugins and features… you … Read more

If you have a Twitter, Facebook, watch TV or just live on this planet, you’ve heard of Justin Bieber (who I will affectionately refer to as Biebz.)
Tween girls (and secretly, their mothers) want to kiss him, tween boys are jealous of his angelic voice and silky side-swept hair, and pretty much every mainstream artist wants to collaborate with him. But why? What does Biebz have that others don’t?

Stop. Really. It screws everyone over. I don’t want to turn this site into a giant rant, but since this pertains to the music industry, I’ll bite. Here’s a little anecdotal story for you. As you may know from a previous post, I’ve been extremely excited for the Sasquatch Music Festival. The lineup was released … Read more

Last night, I met my personal hero/primary drumming influence… aka Janet Weiss of Quasi and Sleater-Kinney! Quasi played at the Depot, a small cafeteria-like room which is obviously not meant for quality acoustics. However, the sheer power of the threesome overcame the sub-par setting. Most surprising was the size of the audience (or lack thereof). … Read more

Note: this is going to be a… not comical post. Sometimes I’m not funny. (Not often but occasionally) The news industry of late is a little disheartening for me to think about. It’s no secret that news companies are failing big time. I could be wrong, but I don’t think any publication is seeing a … Read more

I am currently on amoxicillin, sudafed, and ibuprofen yet I still feel as if a really annoying person is poking my eardrums with a knife. To explain my current state, I’ll provide a (very) long poem. I went to sleep last night, feeling fit and fine… knowing I didn’t have to wake up for quite … Read more
