Part of it is cuz I live near there, which means I pay closer attention. But also, RVA has had a historically great punk/metal/hardcore scene since the 80s, and I don't really know why that is beyond, like, colleges and cheap rents.

I shouldn't have talked about the man's weight. I don't really like the way I talked about artists' appearances when I was younger. As for the rest, I was right on all of it and I take nothing back.

thank you!

Case in point: https://www.villagevoice.com/2006/11/09/pitbull-better-than-nas/

I wrote my own headlines at the Voice, and I went for maximum outrage every time to build a name for myself. It worked!

I wrote the piece last week, and then I missed the news about the Mar-A-Lago thing. That sucks!

Absolutely floored. A true 10.

I'm probably not gonna post columns on 12/25 or 1/1, but it really depends on how busy my next few work days are.

holy shit

There was a guy wilding out in there who was like 6'7", and I was like "well, shit, my face is no longer safe." Wasn't a headbutt exactly, was more like my head was moving forward and his was moving backward.
