Cupid’s Metal Arrow
Are you like me? Does February 14th make you want to don a toga, paste on some wings, and go out and shoot people straight in their assholes with an arrow? No? It must be my own neurosis. Don’t mind me. I just despise the concept of Valentine’s Day. With every fiber of my being, […]
Leftover Crack is Getting Stale
“You know there ain’t no thing as Leftover Crack”! This is a phrase that echoed loudly throughout the punk rock community back in 2001. Yet this battle cry became dormant over 12 years ago leaving every street punk and gay rude boy to wonder what the hell happened to this iconic anthem. Well to […]

The Wailers Warm Up the Sunshine State
With lows in the mid forties last week, this was as close to winter as Florida can get. It was no wonder then that people flocked to the House of Blues in Disney for a ray of sunshine and a dose of positive vibes. The Marquee read “The Wailers,” and it brought fans from far […]
A Night at the Plaza with Matisyahu
“We play what the f––– we want to play,” Said a visibly annoyed Matisyahu – and thunderous applause broke the awkward silence.
