I went to Girl Talk last night, and now I'm paying for it. My entire body hurts. Stiff neck, sore arms, pulled calf muscles. That's right, I've been limping around the entire day. People asked me what had happened to me. Too much dancing at Girl Talk. That's what happened. The minutes before they left people go onstage, I thought that there was a possibility that I might die. I'd never been in such a packed crowd, and I've had my fair share of deathly crowds. When I [...]

Recently things have been a little dicey. What with the stock market crisis, the government bailout, and the burden being put on the taxpayers. It's easy to get lost in the panic and fail to see the bigger picture. Luckily People Magazine is here to give is the real scoop. Clay Aiken is gay. ??? Stop the presses! What a bombshell!

(Parts & Labor and Team Robespierre performing at the new Danger Danger in Philly) I'm off and starting the tour down to SXSW with good-people Parts & Labor. They played at the new Danger Danger in Philly with Team Robespierre, Ecstatic Sunshine, and house-band Red Rocket. It was in a dingy basement with a low bare-beam ceiling. So of course it wasn't long into Team Robespierre's set when they broke something. First it was a lightbulb with Tomasz's head, and then unfortunately later it was their laptop/beat machine. Regardless of the problems, they took it lightly and soldiered [...]
