Old faces same scene


Sometimes it is very nice to play shows in your old element. Sometimes. Had a blast rocking out and you remember why you did it so much. All the smiles and cheering was awesome. The late night shenanigans that turn into drunk on drunk suck but that is part of the danger i guess. Where's my limo driver man?

Stress Reducing Kit for the overworked

Please do not do this exercise on your home computer. We recommend doing this on your work PC or MAC. The harder the surface the better. You can also just draw a circle on nice brick or concrete wall but for something more forgiving plywood or a sheet-rock wall works just as well. The last thing helps in relieving stress besides the obvious self help is to crank some rock-n-roll really, really loud. If that does not work just punch a co-worker in the face. Preferably one nobody likes.

What's that damn sweet smell in NJ?


North Jersey is known for bad smells but there was a mystery smell like maple syrrup wafting in the air every once in while for past 5 years. Sensitive noses that were out and about picked up on it. I sure as hell didn't. I try and keep my windows closed and doors locked whenever I'm up in the JC, Newark or Hoboken area in my car. AC or heat. Whatever the case the mysterious smell has been discovered. Now we a can go on with our lives and all you other people can stay away.

Unless if you are so inclined make to it a miller night out by going to the noise pollution reunion show featuring aviso'hara and the ankles at The Lamp Post Sat Feb 21 in Jersey City, NJ. Do it.
