I don't do reality television. Watching nimrods behaving like nimrods is not entertainment for me. (I work in corporate America) But I couldn't help but be drawn to a commercial for Celebrity Wife Swap . Amidst the flotsam and jetsam of Dee Snider, Flavor Flav and other past-expiration date notables, there was Gary Busey. I shuddered a bit as I realized that, though I have no idea who might reign as America's idol, star dancer, or top chief, the idea of some C-list celebrity handing over his wife to Gary Busey - in [...]

Though Kevin Costner has provided me with a wealth of knowledge when it comes to surviving apocalyptic scenarios involving water and lack of mail delivery in Waterworld and The Postman , respectively, he's offered no cinematic advice for dealing with the undead. Fortunately, Norman Reedus has become a fine role model to me for how best to navigate a zombie apocalypse through his portrayel of the crossbow-wielding, squirrel-gutting, walker-slaying, Southern redneck anti-hero Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead . (and he's Zen) Norman Reedus is new to me. [...]

Pick the wrong one and you might toil in obscurity forever while the right name might net you attention from the right people. So why not take some inspiration from what's around you? There's plenty to be said for the civic pride of naming your band after your hometown, especially if it evokes something of your music -- [...]

Working in one of the larger record stores I'd ever stepped into for much of the '90s provided the opportunity to encounter a collection of characters that one might ordinarily have to do time to experience. (an outcome that one co-worker narrowly avoided after being busted for manufacturing his own money) Of these compatriots, The Drunken Frenchman was certainly one of the more memorable. A good decade older than most of us, he had eased into the role of gruff, cantankerous elder so effortlessly that there was a yard no doubt lamenting his [...]

I've been MIA for a minute. First, it was my hard drive crashing, but lately I've been grinding 24/7. Anyway, I've taken time out to bless y'all with the spirit of the Wu. RZA is currently spearheading a project entitled Legendary Weapons , featuring nearly all of the Clan and a tremendous amounts of guests (note to fellow rap nerds: we're actually going to hear Ghostface and Action Bronson on a track). "225 Rounds" is a pretty ill joint and it's nice to hear Wu-Elements member Bronze Nazareth thrown into the [...]

Later that usual, as a result of some unforeseen issues at Dear Scotland HQ, Vic presents his weekly round-up of Scottish international gigs with a closer look at Rachel Sermanni.

Anyone who was unfortunate enough to have well-meaning-yet-clueless relatives knows the feeling of disappointment. After weeks of anticipation, staring at the shiny boxes under the Christmas tree and wondering what's inside, you eagerly tear open your presents. What lies inside? GI Joes? Transformers?? A BB gun? A new Nintendo?!? Mind racing and adrenaline pumping, you [...]
