Everyone Stares: The Police Inside Out (DVD) Directed by: Stewart Copeland Movie Released: 2006 Format: DVD I had high hopes for this one considering the eccentric Copeland pedigree and the fact that he taught me the only dance move a kid ever needed to know in the “Don’t Stand So Close To Me” video. But […]

“Nina Simone Si, Bernie Rhodes No!” “Joe Strummer” has always been my answer to the question “Who would you like to be stuck in an elevator with?” He represents the perfect mix of aggro, intellect, and sensitivity. And it is no doubt that over time his sensitivity has emerged as his strongest trait. He cared […]

A while back I stumbled across some videos from these two jokers Adam Colton and Adam Stokowski, also known as Adam2. When I say jokers I mean that in a good way. These two clowns (again, in a good way) have made some interesting videos that often time border on the severely goofy. Lett’s face […]

Hey, it’s fucking great! Here’s an attempt at a review. Do you want more? We Jam Econo: the story of the Minutemen is a great film. If you like the music you’ll probably enjoy this. Lots of performance footage. I never saw them live and was slow to pick up on their music but I […]

Saikou? What does it mean? I couldn’t tell you. I tripped over the name of their last DVD too. Not important anyway. There are four main parts to this DVD. The first is a Utah and Idaho tour dating back to 2005, the second is the late Fallen Wharehouse. The third is called Nuts and […]

Width: 7.75 – 8.5 Length: 31.375 – 32.5 Wheelbase: 13.75 – 14.75 Sometimes a graphic can be so hideous or messed up that it can draw you to it like gawkers at a grisly highway accident. The graphic on this deck is one of those. On the surface it’s just a cigar band featuring a […]

Width: Yes Length: Yes! Wheelbase: Adjustable Slalom. I don’t know a damn thing about it. It came from the 70’s and it died in the 80’s, but somehow it’s making a comeback of sorts in this decade. (The 00’s?) In any case. Through a convoluted set of circumstances I found myself with a new slalom […]

At one point I was visiting a friend in Chicago. I (thought) I knew his address, and since I was arriving at 3:00 in the morning or so (must have been Greyhound) he said he would leave the door to his apartment unlocked when he went to bed. When I finally made to the building […]

I think the Sounds are confused. I know I am after listening to this record. First off, the cover looks like so much American Apparel softcore porn, which I guess is fine by itself but sort of out of context for the band. The first track makes it apparent that they are going to be […]
