It’s always a toss-up to say what the best part of an evening out is. Pregame and preparation are always fun, but last call is also a crucial part of a night out, especially when you’re going to school in the Midwest and the town closes down around 2 AM.
You can really get a sense of the type of establishment you’ve been frequenting by learning what it closes with each night. In New York, sometimes a sick sense of accomplishment coincides with every last call you actually make it to. 4 AM is much easier said than done when you’ve been trained to turn in after 2. Sometimes, though, regardless of the time, you’re going to get the same gratification.
What’s sad is that no one actually NEEDS that final drink at last call, but everyone panics all the same, as though they haven’t been drinking all night anyway. Read More »

Old fogies and teenage victims of classic rock epiphanies have reason to celebrate, as Led Zeppelin’s catalog will be on iTunes November 13 in the form of one, downloadable catalog. Priced at $99, Led Zep’s package includes every album the band released, 165 songs in total.
Led Zeppelin is, by all accounts, an essential band. You already know that and therefore have owned their entire discography - or at least their Greatest Hits album - since childhood. So why buy what you already own? Haven’t even the most casual listeners of rock memorized every lyric, every riff?
If you don’t own any album by Led Zeppelin by all means go purchase Led Zeppelin I and IV immediately, then round out your collection with II and III. Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti are somewhat patchy by comparison but still worth picking up.
There’s far too much music to be heard for fans of classic rock - especially fans of Led Zeppelin. While music tastes are completely objective, I’ve offered up my four recommendations if you’re a fan of heavy rock with a blues influence…all available for download on iTunes. Read More »

The blog-universe has been giving the seal of approval to Britney’s leaked songs since early this week – have I been listening to the wrong ones?
These tracks are complete tripe. There is no way somebody with working eardrums can possibly give a “thumbs-up� to Brit’s latest batch of bimbo-pop.
Even hipsters looking for their next bastion of irony will be thoroughly disappointed.
The three songs – “Gimme More,� “Cold as Fire,� “Baby Boy� – each have flat, lifeless production left over from the last millennium. This major mistake could’ve been easily remedied with the right collaborators (hint, hint).
Check out Britney Spears’ new tracks after the jump.
