First off I would like to thank my friends Tyler and Angie for the invite to this show. I have not been a big listener of the Dresden Dolls but after sitting in the 2nd row of Boston’s Orpheum Theater the other night, I can now appreciate what they offer. This self-proclaimed “Punk Cabaret” duo […]

Having a week off from work is a great thing. With the x-mas rush behind me and a lot of spare time on my hands, I am able to spend some time digging into the art of collecting vinyl. What I have found was a scene full of disparate information, a lot of dusty crates, […]

Boston.com has a great breakdown of the players the Mitchell Report lists as steroid offenders. Mo Vaugn…got to love it…that fat fuck.
