Addicted To Vinyl

Here we are at the beginning of another holiday weekend!! Happy new year to you all!!
But let’s talk about the previous holiday weekend, which I’ll sum up in one word:
Productive.
I went to the thrift store to drop off a couple of boxes of CDs, and while I was there, I picked up […]

Who enjoys networking on Twitter?
This guy.
New and interesting people continue to find their way on to my radar via Twitter. Like recent Yale graduate Hannah Friedman, who is writing her first book Everything Sucks: Losing My Mind and Finding Myself in a High School Quest for Cool, a “teenage memoir” that will […]

Blogging buddy and occasional Ohio resident Kevin Mason throws me a nice shoutout that documents on video the recent conversation that several of us had on Facebook that started with a simple comment about Kevin’s status update, which had to do with the whole Coldplay/Joe Satriani thing.

I got my hands on the recently released Duran Duran - Rio DVD, which gets the documentary treatment from Eagle Vision’s excellent Classic Albums video series. You’ve probably seen Classic Albums on VH-1 Classic featuring Meat Loaf’s Bat Out Of Hell, Def Leppard’s Hysteria, Queen’s A Night At The Opera, etc.
I first […]

And then I […]

I could probably start a separate blog dedicated to the frequent blog dispatches from everyone’s favorite crazy blonde this side of Anne Heche, Courtney Love.

I’ll […]

Dear readers,
I hope this finds you well and stuffed full of Thanksgiving memories.
Today, I officially began the beautiful thing that some like to refer to as a “four day weekend.”
Unfortunately, I made the mistake of trying to be semi-productive. For those of you that have been following the limited details of my recent postal […]

I woke up this morning and the weather outside was (a bit) frightful….
Snow on the morning commute is so wrong.
I’m guessing that all of the warm weather ATV readers have no idea what I’m talking about.
Trust me, it sucks.
The city streets were backed up with people who hadn’t seen snow before (sarcasm) adding an extra […]

Any Tonic fans in the house?
I’ve been listening to Tonic’s second album Sugar a lot this week. It’s probably my favorite from the three albums that they’ve done, (so far?) and I feel like they often got the short end of a stick as a band. Take a look at their three albums, […]
