Pictures from the Last Chance For Change concert
Mr. Carter spoof
Affion Crockett is the man. I don't have hate for Wayne, but when I can't deny I was half way excited when I thought a beef was gonna pop off between him and Jay. I'm pretty sure that the only man who could even come close to beating Hov in a beef already did.

More Winter Wear
The Weakerthans-Civil Twilight
Self proclaimed prairie rock band from Winnipeg Canada. The video consists of a single, unbroken camera shot of the band on a Winnipeg Transit city bus.
Labels:
bus,
canada,
civil twilight,
weakerthans,

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
I just saw this band in Chicago. I've been seen hundreds of bands that focus specifically on appearing to be tough or heavy, and look like little kids compared to this tiny Australian man. Classic.
Winter is coming
If hip hop dies, we die together
The first and probably most relevant thing that I can identify with on any sort of cultural level is hip hop. To me, hip hop is a culture and can be extrapolated on to any aspect of culture that would lend someone to individuality. Hip hop refuses to be marginalized, it combines precision with versatility and still demands respect and modesty from anyone who takes it seriously.
I fell in love with hip hop a few years ago during what could have been one of the hardest points in my life. I was working and in school full time, which is torturous for someone as prone to procrastination and demanding of free time as I am. Anyways one day I had to work a 23 hour shift dishwashing because both other dishwashers decided to bail and my managers had sold there souls years and years ago. I was anticipating a five hour shift so I had only brought one CD with me and we were allowed to listen to music. I ended up listening to Stillmatic by Nas 18 times that day as a means to grasp what little sanity was still clinging on to by that point. This song off that album has since been my favorite song of all time. Hip hop saved my life.
hey young world, wanna hear a story?
Ok so i'm jocking a bunch of my friends and hopping on the blogwagon. I'm a pretty ambitiously social person and avid networker so i figured why not attempt to look sort of kind of but actually not even close to sophisticated by making vague personal statements and a conglomeration of cultural iconoclast I appreciate... on the INTERNET!
So here it is, a blog written and maintained by a perpetually hungover cosmetology student who lives in a small city in the midwest. Brace yourself world, you may never be the same.
