I'm heading out to Chicago, IL on Friday road trip style! So I need your input as to what rock songs, albums, bands and artists I should listen to so the time can pass a bit easier. Who am I playing as I make my way to the Windy City?
As a kid, the family usually made at least one trek annually to visit relatives in Western Pennsylvania. To mitigate the need to navigate traffic, we would often set off on these trips in the wee hours of the night, getting the first couple hours in before the sunrise. It was thrilling to be up in the middle of the night, at an hour whose existence was wholly unknown to me at the time. As my younger brother and our mother would be asleep in the backseat, I was accorded shotgun, road atlas [...]
Brian DeFrees drove some 12,225 miles while circumnavigating America in August and October of this year. He compiled a video of his entire trip, which began and ended in Syracuse, NY. "During my trip I summarized each day in photos using the iPhone apps "Picframe" and "Instagram". When I was traveling in my car I was shooting photos from my Canon 60D every 5 seconds with an intervalometer. When I was parked for the night or exploring an area on foot I was constantly timelapsing," he writes . In total, he crossed at least 32 [...]
So, the clocks have been turned back, an act that still is an odd thing to me as I grew up in one of the few swaths of the US that didn't acknowledge such antics. (Paloma is like a ninja somehow resetting all of the numerous timepieces in the treehouse so swiftly, so deftly that I never see her do it, but the feat is accomplished by the time I awake) As the citizens of my hometown were ignoring the changing of the times in autumn, 1984, my friends and I had all reached our sixteenth [...]
Earlier this month we reported that the Grateful Dead were bringing the Road Trips series of archival releases to a close with Vol. 4 No. 5 featuring all of the band's June 9, 1976 performance in Boston. The announcement about the end of Road Trips hinted at a future archival series and this weekend we got the details of what the Dead and Rhino Records have in store for us. In the first all-digital version of the Grateful Dead Almanac , it has been revealed that early [...]
On November 1, the Grateful Dead and Rhino Records will put out the 17th installment of the Road Trips archival series. Road Trips Vol. 4 No. 5 will feature all of the Dead's June 9, 1976 performance at the Boston Music Hall as well as a handful of tracks from a few nights later on the 12th at the same venue. The biggest surprise in the announcement of this release is that it will be the last Road Trips installment. Today's announcement doesn't give [...]
This weekend I'm hitting the road to Asbury Park for the All Tomorrow's Parties Music Festival curated by Portishead . And while I won't be able to travel with a photographer (ATP is a "boutique festival" and press is limited and I'm not Pitchfork or Rolling Stone or NPR or whomever is important enough these days; I've already blown my yearly budget on a website that doesn't make money and can't afford to pay a photographer's way to another festival, etc, etc) I will be filing reports all weekend long. Booze pending, I plan on [...]
Remember that skinny kid that was in all those teen movies like a decade ago? Yeah, THAT guy. Well, his name is DJ Qualls and he got arrested in Canada over the weekend! This past Friday night while out on the town in downtown Vancouver , Qualls tried to break up a drunken brawl and help the Vancouver PD with information about on the attackers, only to find himself in slapped into a pair or HANDCUFFS! Yeah. That's right, that skinny [...]
1. Some enterprising guy recorded his cross-country trip from Seattle to Maine: "My route went down I-90, for almost the entire length of the highway, with only a few small detours. I wrote a small script in python to make my Droid X take a picture every 90 seconds." I know the route well having driven from Portland to Boston several times. [via buzzfeed ] 2. The Big Think writes about the new great American road trip , or rather how it differs today compared with a decade [...]

When I was approached by Dudley from All Sorted Records to cover the showcase at Leeds Fringe Festival, I should of known it was never going to be a quiet night! Due to circumstances that unfolded during the week, I was left requiring transportation. My request for a private jet was politely refused, however Axel kindly stepped into the breach and offered me a ride in his car. So there I was, up and ready to hit the road at 10am on a Sunday when a rather worse-for-wear looking Axel arrived sporting trademark shades that also happened to cover up [...]
