[TRUE STORY] I Did Karaoke With Legendary Music Critic Rob Sheffield And Lived To Tell The Tale
Doing karaoke with legendary rock journalist and author Rob Sheffield is really intimidating. Not only because I respect him as a writer and a professional but more so because he’s really good at it.

[CULTIST CRUSH] Jenn And Liz, The Pelly Twins
(we stole all these photos from the Internet please don’t be mad) The first time I met a Pelly twin was at Tommy’s Tavern in NYC, a meat-stinking hole with piss-shit bathrooms and a really cute, plump and gothic bartender.

[BABY STEPS] How To Survive Very Cheaply On Tour
Touring in a band is great. You know why? Mostly because you get to live with pretty much zero responsibility. All you really have to do is make sure that you hydrate yourself and show up to play your set on time. After that, it’s all gravy. Just kidding! Maybe if you are The Black...
