Occasionally there are bands that aside from being good musicians, also give the innate feeling that they are awesome people. I would say that I speculate MKNG FRNDZ to be one of those bands, but I have to confess that I know Daniel pretty well and he’s one of the most spectacularly wonderful people I [...]
This Weekend In Beautiful Bed-Sty Brooklyn: More Dance and Performance Bliss from the folks at AUNTS!!!!
As I have posted before, and will undoubtedly post again, AUNTS are pretty much my favorite performance and dance art based assembly in New York City.

Long preview for Watchmen; a movie that probably won’t be that good
What do you think of when you think of Sin City? Was it good? Was it bad? Was it as good as the comic? I’m not really sure because I never read it or saw the film, but Watchmen (comic also by acclaimed writer Alan Moore), is the next highly produced film to [...]
TAINted Love : In which The Decemberists trade their image for silhouettes and win!
I know what you’re thinking and I don’t want to hear it. At least not right now. I am fully aware of how pompous and routine you think The Decemberists are and though I will easily admit that I don’t listen to them much myself as I used to, and I realize they aren’t as [...]

The unfortunate event is the catalyst [...]

REALLY FUCKING C000L!! COOL THING: BEST NEW GAY FICTION
The release of the new fiction anthology COOL THING: BEST NEW GAY FICTION is exciting on so many levels, a very early edition of a novel I am working on makes a debut public appearance in the book and I like all the work that other authors opted to display, so I’m allowing myself to [...]
Let The Right One In-Adolecence, Outsiders and Vampires, Oh My!(a non review)
I don’t usually walk away from movies disoriented and/or speechless, however after viewing Swedish director Tomas Alfredson‘s new film “Let The Right One In” the other night, I walked for a good six or seven minutes in the wrong direction before I even realized what I was doing.
