Everyone loves a good story…
Chris Homsley I have a couple of friends who produce a show called the Promo Only Artist Showcase held during the DJ Expo. This is a showcase for up and coming DJs and dance music acts, and sometimes to launch an artist’s comeback. It’s held in Atlantic City at the House of Blues venue in […]

Jenny Denton I bought tickets to this show months ago, which is ballsy for a freelancer especially since the show was on a Tuesday. I got unabashedly excited as the date neared and no worked reared its ugly but necessary head. But then my date moved to Cleveland the weekend before the show to do […]

Jenny Denton Loud music… scratch that, loud bad music. Like Britney Spears, Christina, Beyonce and all of those other girls who refuse to have names that are easy to spell without using Google. Luckily, there was no Nickelback or I wouldn’t be writing this… Twenty girls share the floor with me, most of whom are […]

Jessica Lehmann I’ll just come out and say it: Everything is better in Germany: The cats’ farts smell sweeter; people kiss a lot; and there are fairies in the forest. My partner is German, and we just returned from a two-week trip to visit his family in the small town of Riesa in the state […]
Read More →Jessica Lehmann I love yard sales, thrift stores and free stuff. Accordingly, I thought I would love the LACC Swap Meet… but I didn’t. There are shoes, electronics, clothing, art, household cleaners, more electronics, children’s toys, etc. Just imagine if a 99 Cent Store and a yard sale had a parking-lot sized baby, and you’ve […]
Read More →Lisa Waugh This is a band that makes you want to punch Jenny Craig in the nuts. If these guys can bring their mega sized talent to the stage, then Karl Lagerfeld needs to shut his hole forever about Adele plus she’s having a baby so “Take that waistlines of musical genius!” Do I sound […]
