Ever wanted to eat like a rockstar? No?! Well Denny's doesn't care. Denny's restaurants, in conjunction with Dr. Pepper, have added menu items created by bands for their Denny's Allnighter program . The items include: " Taking Back Bacon Burger Fries " by Taking Back Sunday Starting with a plate of classic fries, they loaded on layers of cheese, hamburger, tomato, pickles, bacon and onion until they were all satisfied then topped it all off with ketchup and mustard. " Plain White Shake " by [...]
Denny's, the most rock and/or roll of all dining establishments, will become even more rock and/or roll this evening. read more
Somehow, day 2 of this year's Virgin Mobile Festival was even better than the first. While I was still on a high (all natural!) from the Foo Fighter's set the previous night, each of the sets I was honored to see on Sunday blew me away, especially that of the closing act performed by the [...]
Day two continued with the great weather, and even came with a few surprises and disappointments. After finally getting some helpful parking, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club was first up after the strange and offensive opening set by Book the Band winners, Hollywood Undead . No one knew how to take these frauds as they stopped performing at times, only to reveal that a backing track was doing all the work. It was a cruel joke that cheated people out of possible performances by Phantom Planet, We Are Scientists, and even [...]
![Heart-Shaped Pancakes And White Chocolate Everywhere: Idolator Samples Denny's Musician-Inspired Offerings [ON THE SCENE]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1179337_lg.jpg)
We've reported earlier on Denny's attempt to reach out to the kids by inviting bands to design menu items, throwing Warped Tour afterparties, and playing alt-rock over the loudspeakers during the late-night hours. But since there's no outpost of the 24-hour chain diner nearby , we couldn't experience the marketing magic for ourselves—until last night, when the Idolator braintrust got invited to an event spotlighting the items on what Denny's is calling its Rock Star Menu. Unfortunately the Metropolitan Pavilion didn't have red plastic booths installed for the festivities (Denny's-branded placemats would have to suffice), it was [...]
Some may know Fred Mascherino as the former singer/guitarist of Taking Back Sunday; others know him for the power-pop splendor of his new project, the Color Fred. However, those really in the know wear his signature under the soles of their feet. Fred's Macbeth signature Studio Project, the Fred Mascherino F.P. Mascho, was designed to suit Fred's daily needs and core values: a completely vegan shoe (i.e., no leather or other animal products used in its construction/testing) with Velcro straps and extra padding in all the places a person needs. Fred recently dispensed a bit of beardly wisdom about [...]
My Daughter is currently preparing for her Photography exam and last weekend we spent some time taking photographs of 'people & places' for her to use. You cannot believe how hard it is to find 'artistic' shots on a wet and dreary Sunday. And the looks you get when you start taking pictures of people in public [...]
So basically today i'm all bummed out cuz the growth/tumor/child in my back (actually hematoma from falling) isn't really going down and I got a shit ton of work. Then the goddess that is Maggy Rogow aka Raggy Mogow posted this video in her blog. I never really watched Freaks n Geeks but this gave me hope. And that's all I need to keep trucking. And wait isn't that hope thing the intro to a Taking Back Sunday Song? I'm gonna search and post that shit. Anyways the video. [...]
I'm sorta pressed fer time...headed out the door... Tonight I'm turning down my free passes to some shindig at the local disco hosted by some company that's attempting to lure me into their nefarious networking & PR mess and gonna go catch some... visit for more mp3's & random revelations
I avoided putting up one in June when everyone else did - Mars Needs Guitars put up my favorites here and here . Here it goes: Taking Back Sunday - You're So Last Summer Matt Costa - Sunshine The Positions - Summer Nights (download or die) The Little Ones - High on a Hill Belle and Sebastian - I'm a Cuckoo (Avalanches remix) [...]
David E. Sugar Just Like Heaven (The Cure cover) I was predisposed to like this cover, (I've always liked the song), thus, I'm bound to fall for a restless electronic rendition with earnest, excited vocals. The sense of frantic motion, the urgency and immediacy. The desperation to run, run, run, and tell her, tell her, tell her, that you love her! The pauses between the vocals feel forced - caused by a pair of out-of-breath lungs, a need to think, or something else entirely; the sense [...]
Cause you know, big heads and soft bodies make for lousy… (photo cred: greendrz ) Being 20-something in American society these days is like entering a war zone. The list of opportunities that are being rewarded in our economy is narrowing, and the dichotomy between rich and poor is perpetually widening. For those of us pursuing careers in vocational-intensive professions, we have to face workdays becoming longer, credentials becoming more rigid, competition becoming more fierce. We are the crash-test babies of an increasingly structuralized state of capitalism. Ultimately, I believe the system is fair [...]
Day 16 in a crazy attempt to post 5 Christmas songs every day till Christmas You guys have been pretty thankful for the Christmas mixes and have been sending me a boat load of mp3s.

Everyone loves a guilty pleasure. We are no strangers of loving guilty pleasures. And now is the time to bring out some more because a) I need to make up for the lack of posts yesterday and b) I have enough space in the hosting to throw up a few tracks: (all files are right-click, save as) Ciara (featuring Ludacris) - Oh I'm not a fan of R&B at all. But this is one of the few songs I like.
Taking Back Sunday has been out in Los Angeles recording their third album, Louder Now, which is their major label debut. Now that I just heard about this I'm looking forward to this new one. I really liked their last album, Where You Want To Be and also their first Tell All Your Friends, which turned me onto them. When I first bought Where You Want To Be I listened to it straight a couple weeks, hopefully this one will be the same. [...]
