Let’s Work on a Cruise Ship, Shall We?

by Lenny Schmidt September 18, 2013

Ah, to work on a cruise ship; travel the world, see exotic places, play shuffleboard. It’s a dream job, right? Well, yes, it pretty much is. However, it’s like any other job.  When you “work” on the ship you begin to see some stuff a little differently. Please note, I am not complaining in any […]

Let’s Go to the Vice Mag 2013 Photo Edition Party, Shall We? [27 PICTURES]

by Tony Shea August 13, 2013

I went to the Vice Magazine party for the 2013 Photo Edition last Friday night. The one in LA, not New York. It was downtown at The Well, which is a shoe and clothing store during the day I guess. All in all it was fun. I talked with lots of interesting people, since Los […]

Let’s Go See Widespread In Vegas, Shall We?

by Shannon Murfree July 30, 2013

That’s Widespread Mutha’ F*ing Panic to be exact! By far my favorite band to see live, I’ve been going to their shows since 1991 when they would play small clubs on the east coast, mainly for the jam band early adopter, post Grateful Dead, college crowd. If you were to divide my musical tongue into sectors, […]

Mirror Mirror

by Dan O'Day McClellan July 15, 2013

“I can see you now in that mirror and if you’re not careful I’ll pop right through it.” Letter from author John Fante, while in Rome working on a screenplay, to his wife, Joyce – 1960 Mirrors are wonderful devices. Do I look okay? Are my nose hairs too long? Is there something in my […]

by Tony Shea May 16, 2013

Director, Baz Lurhman’s new filmed version of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel, The Great Gatsby, is in theaters and it’s been generating some heated reviews which have criticized the film for taking liberties with the original source material and having a style over substance approach. I wondered what ole’ F. Scott Fitz had to say […]

It’s Friday Night. I’m driving in a car with my road dawg, Wanda, to a tiny dive bar way outside of the city to see one the Bay Area’s best 80’s pop cover bands, Tainted Love. We’ve been driving for awhile. Are we the only fools that would drive out here for the experience — […]

Let’s Go on a See Cruise, Shall We?

by Lenny Schmidt May 7, 2013
