That’s right ladies and gentleman, a real f#%king hoverboard has been invented by the folks over at Hendo. The big picture is to integrate this special type of hover technology into other aspects of our lives, but let’s be honest, we just want to cruise around on theses suckers in puffy red vest jackets like […]

Editor’s notes: I’d like to start this feature out by saying how proud we all are of our contributing photographer, Riley Downs.

I’m not sure why I’m writing this, because I shouldn’t have to give you a reason to go see Taking Back Sunday & The Used, with opening act Frank Iero, but there are still some shows that are not sold out, so here we go! Frank Iero and The Cellabration were great. Frank was […]

September 9th at the Myth Nightclub in Maplewood, Riley Downs and myself attended the Rise Against show with supporting acts Radkey, and Touche Amore.

At the ripe age of 18 I got my first job working at the super conglomerate, Wal-mart. What does any sensible 18 year old purchase with their first paycheck? They buy an album, of course.

I can’t believe this is my first time seeing a Linkin Park show, but it was. I grew up on the West Coast at the height of “Linkin Park-mania,” when Hybrid Theory was played almost in it’s entirety on the radio each week and skinny white kids were given another icon in a tank-top and […]
The Carnivores show with AFI, 30 Seconds To Mars & Linkin Park was un-real. I wish I had 3STM photos, but apparently Jared Leto wanted fans to “enjoy the show with no distractions?!” Either way, an incredible power house of music from each band, could not be happier! I hope you all enjoy these photos […]

“You can tell when you’re talking to him, he’s always 3 sentences ahead.” – K.Flay Watsky is one smart guy and beyond that, one HELL of an entertainer! When Watsky hit the stage at Warped Tour, the fans went absolutely fucking crazy. By the 2nd song of his set he was right down there in […]
