It’s always the people from out of town who think it’s weird there are movie screenings in a cemetery. Oh you know, those L.A. hippy folk are always up to their crazy ways, up to no good. On the other hand, if you’ve been here awhile, it’s old news or – even if it actually [...]

Though I bought tickets for this event the day they went on sale, out of curiosity I checked today to see if there were more available. To my shock, they’re not even sold out! I think of any artist in any environment – music heard in this setting is [...]
Equipped with a nose drip and 30 squares of toilet paper in my purse, I had the chance to see Björk’s Voltaic in Hollywood at The Montalban on Vine and, well, Hollywood Blvd. Voltaic is essentially a compilation of the Paris and Reykjavik legs on her Volta tour.

Sometimes, the good stuff just crams itself into the same weekend. Get a load of the upcoming fests. You can eat to your heart’s content and blast your ears out to their discontent … while basking in the sun or enjoying the cool summer breeze. Take your pick or mix and match.
I mean, if you even [...]
“You’re on the VIP list, right?” she asked.
“Uh…yeah.” I had stopped just short of overcompensating. “Yeah!”
We had tried 3 different names and none of them were on the list. So, C and I turned away from what we had previously thought was a “regular RSVP list check-in table” and reconvened about 10 feet [...]
You know you’re a redneck cat person when …
… you smell something so disturbingly familiar that you turn to your boyfriend towards the end of a Mars Volta concert and shout in his ear, “I think I just smelled cat poo!!!”
