The other night I saw Notorious MSG, “The Original Chinatown Bad Boys” for the first time. I heard of them when they played a show with Peelander-Z in NY that I wasn’t able to attend, but a friend who was there said they were really fun and I should see them if I get a [...]

It’s the last day of SXSW! Obviously I have much to update on but definitely no time for that right now. So I will give you a preview of two videos that I did not take of Monotonix from Tel Aviv, Israel, who I saw Thursday night (or should I say Friday morning) starting at [...]

(I wrote this yesterday, 3/16!) As I’m writing this, I’m on a flight down to Austin, Texas for the annual South By Southwest (SXSW) music festival! I went for the first time last year through my college’s radio station and it was so much fun, and I’m excited to be going again this year! Last [...]
