Everyone loves a good story…
Lisa Waugh For me and the people who crawled through the Billith era and made it to the bitter end of True Blood, last night’s series finale was, well, as flaccid as this whole last season but it was still kind of sad to see the sun go down on Bon Temps. Yep, there was so […]

On Soundcloud, Colleenstracks is delighted with the opening line of “Look at Me”: “Good morning miss sunshine who are you gonna walk on today haha☺.” I’m with Colleen, Paul Maged is a hell of a wordsmith and he’s nailed that bitch to the T. We all know that bitch, right. On Maged’s latest record Diamonds […]

Don’t let anyone tell you that there aren’t any good mentors in the music business these days. Because I know one. James Moore formed Independent Music Promotions because he saw a huge gap in what musicians needed and what was being sold to them. Promoting your band is a lot more than throwing up a […]

We all loved Jordan Catalano. My So-Called Life was well done and fairly accurate because I was Rayanne up until 2003. We all suspected that Jared Leto had the same IQ as Jordan. Sure, he’s been freaking mesmerizing in Requiem for a Dream, Mr. Nobody and of late, Dallas Buyer’s Club. He won that Oscar […]

Lisa Waugh If you haven’t been watching Jerry Seinfeld’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee then you need to start right now. I love cars and I love coffee and I love comedy but the thought of all three with Jerry Seinfeld at the wheel sounded boring as shit. Here’s a successful guy riding around in expensive […]

If you’ve been wondering what your favorite 10thDoctor has been up to, well, this is it. David Tennant, who winds up his native Scottish accent, plays the lead inspector (DI Alex Hardy) in a child murder case in the sleepy seaside village of Broadchurch (shot in Somerset). His troubled, sour-faced cop is a departure from […]

Drunk LA Girl Okay Obama, way to fucking go! As if conspiracy theorists don’t have enough stuff to be paranoid about, now you pull some weird Big Brother crap with looking into people’s online activity?! Thanks to you, I’m now stuck listening to my roommate’s weirdo boyfriend Garreth go into another one of his […]

Almost immediately, you don’t want to read this article because it’s way too fucking long. I don’t have a painting of Kobe Bryant petting a stoned deer or a crab farting while tearfully breaking up with a seagull and the seagull laughing, certifying the crab’s heartbreak. That would be great. But I don’t have either […]

The show that is all about inside and pop culture references is back just in time for a lazy Memorial Day Weekend. And it’s not Family Guy. I was so giddy over seeing the return of Arrested Development on Netflix, I did let go of a little pee. I feel a little bad for our […]

Vanessa Whitney The release date: June 27th, 1986. From the very beginning, it was magic. The white horse galloping in and seemingly leaping off the movie screen and over the audience. Studio theme revealing… TRI STAR PICTURES. Dip down to a dark screen. Ominous bass notes, giving way to synthesizer chords and brass, finally succumbing to guitars and […]

Lisa Waugh Eric Canori, Rob Reinfurt and Missy Giove got busted. Big time busted. Eric Canori had a pretty lucrative pot franchise. He ran it for several years, undetected. When his cross country courier was pulled over in Illinois, the jig was up. Canori was arrested in Saratoga County, New York in 2009, a state […]

Lisa Waugh On Louise Aubrie’s new album, Time Honoured Alibi, every track is an anthem. The record is big and filled with intent. Aubrie’s sound is poppish and punkish in a determined 80s kind of way, keeping all of the good vibes of the era and throwing out the bad glam and fear of nukes […]

Gary is a new friend. He owns the building that my friends live in in San Pedro. Often times, when I go to see them, Gary is at their place. Melanie usually makes a wonderful meal – her specialty is chicken cutlets – and Gary makes this awesome salad that I will call Holy Amazeballs […]

My grandmother used to say, “As soon as you start to think about art, you’ve already blown it.” She believed in the Blink theory before it was even a thing. When I’m creating something, I usually think about her motto for a few seconds and go with my gut, avoiding the “thought” of it. Which […]

Lisa Waugh From bankrolling your cross-country motorcycle adventure to “find yourself” to raising campaign funds (Obama), crowdfunding is second nature these days. People are finding that crowdfunding may seem like an easy-to-use tool but they soon find out that there is an art to raising funds. One of the biggest downsides of crowdfunding is knowing […]

What was intended to be an unplugged version of a debut album morphed into its own monster… thus, The Prize is born. A Primitive Evolution’s second record vibrates with soul, grit, rock and eerie goodness. I’ve had it in my ears for a few weeks now and find that it’s a go to just about every […]

Lisa Waugh Apparently Rex Reed is a little behind the times. The 74-year old certainly didn’t do his storied career any favors when he eschewed his job at reviewing Identity Thief and instead attacked Melissa McCarthy’s size. Or maybe he shored up what many have always thought about Reed… catty queen. McCarthy has been a […]

Drunk LA Girl Can we finally just outlaw all guns so we can get this stupid debate over with?! It’s not that hard. If you love guns and just have to destroy things then maybe wean yourself off that shit by using an arrow, or throw some rocks instead. It’s like cigarettes—I’m stuck with the […]

Lisa Waugh If my clock is right, a lot of us are out there starting the New Year with a health and fitness challenge. One of the big discussions I hear all around is that although it’s great to get back into shape, the cost of food is somewhat daunting. This is where I, Miss […]
