Have you ever walked under a ladder cradling a black cat with an open umbrella in your other hand and a dirty rabbit’s foot in your back pocket? Have you ever stepped on a crack on the sidewalk while whistling at night? Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale fluorescent lights of [...]
A Helping Hand For The Good Guy
As most of you have probably already heard, our town’s own DJ extraordinaire and nightlife mainstay Jonathan Toubin was the victim of an absolute freak accident, having been seriously injured when an out of control taxi cab plowed through the wall of the hotel he was staying in in Portland OR where he was on [...]
HOBOPUNK SEXCORE
What’s up, Witches! We’ve powered through and survived yet another week in Hooverville. You deserve a cookie…or at the very least a rock and roll night out. What do you say, a little levity with your ennui? Friday October 7th In case you missed them when they played last month (or if you didn’t catch [...]
The Decadent Fruits of your Labour
And just like that…Summer’s done. (Oh, where did you go?) I hope you all got to go to the beach and feel sand between your toes and sea mist in your hair, to have a shitty part time job that you told to shove off, to make out with the person you really wanted to, [...]
When Rome Gives You Fires, Make Smores
Hey Ya’ll? Anything interesting going on? Lucky that we are young and debauched, for it’d be so easy to get brought down by the shit of the day, if you’re the world weary sort who wears awareness like a neck weight…And just in case you’re about to assume the coccon position, I say to you: [...]
A Day at the Races
I don’t bet on the horsies (and neither should your broke ass), but right here in this little old blog post I’ve got SURE BETS on where to go to get some ACTION this weekend, starting tonight…
Have You Ever Danced With a Satyr in the Pale Neon Light?
AWOOOOOOOGA! It’s officially the first all the way through nice weekend in this god forsaken city! So you know what that means: STRIP NAKED AND RUN WILD IN THE STREETS INCITING TERROR! With flowers in your hair, of course…
Spring Forward Into the Abyss.
As a reminder, you must not forget (lest you screw up your life FOREVER) to set your clocks FORWARD one hour this Saturday night…that means if you’re hanging out late and you’re wondering why they called “last call” at 2:30, don’t make trouble for your poor bartender and get thee to the afterparty. Or Bed. ULTIMATELY what this means is winter is pretty much officially DONE (no whammy no whammy no whammy) as the days get longer, the temperatures warmer, the skirts shorter and all kinds of crazy starts gleaming in your eye! Glory Be! Now you can all stop bitching – you’ve lost an hour of sleep and you’ve gained a season. Not that many of you are THAT big on sleep to begin with…
Fall Back!
Hope you’ve got your bearings about you, what after the month of insanity that gave us CMJ (Country Music Jammers?), a cosmically insane Halloween weekend (I heard ALL the stories, matey), midterm exams, the squash harvest, cider shingles, crack tastings and and all the other assorted stupid that October means to you and me…
Well, you’d best LIVER UP! This weekend Daylight Savings Time ENDS at 2am on Sunday morning. That means one whole extra hour of drinky poo! A multitude of fun awaits you out on the streets, and when you get home The Gin Fairy will leave a dollar bill and remorse under your pillow while you sleep!
Surf and Turf – The $5.99 (plus tax) Midweek Roundup
Greetings, sports fans! Well! It’s a quiet week…in fact, it’d damn near cricket chirp quiet when compared to the usual onslaught of events. It’s likely that this is just the calm before the storm of activity that is the month of October…Bela Lugosi awaits, savagely…
