I can’t believe I have yet to catch this band…. Granted, Exusamwa have only had three public shows, but still… they’ve got members of Fat Day, Life Partners, and the owner of Weirdo Records! And they’re as secretive as none other, nothing but a few online pics to do jus[...]

Last Year In…
Music-and-film based satire blog The Umpteenth Times posted a great piece involving stimulus plans and Fugazi. What a gag: “Fugazi to Receive Stimulus Check from Government By Frank Gurbleck WASHINGTON D.C.—Earlier this week, the Washington D.C.-based band, Fugazi, received notice th[...]

Tune Travis Tune: An America Is Just A Word Update
I’ve got some exciting updates in the progress of America Is Just A Word. While I’m content with what I’ve already written for the book, I must admit that, from conversations with other individuals and some time mulling it over, it does need a little something… more. In and [...]

Don't Shudder
Great news today from reunion land, where Shudder To Think will join a growing list of acts banding together to make a little tour. It’s not much, but I’ll certainly take it. It also doesn’t hurt that Boston is one of the few locations in America that the band is scheduled to hit; [...]
A Word on Words
