Right answer.
Right answer.
While Bill deserves to shut the fuck up.
Keep’em coming, A.V. Club!
Yup. They are one of the great bands right now and they’re flying under the radar.
Hey, Hollywood... If you need someone to compile a soundtrack for hypothetical 90's high school movie, I am available... Just sayin’.
I don’t endorse starting a sex cult, but if you’re gonna do it you might as well aim high.
Really glad to see Garnet have an issue with something again. As the, uh, most balanced Gem, she sometimes is so cool and aloof that one can’t quite relate to her the same way one can relate to Amethyst or Pearl, who both have big human frailties the audience can see their own in. Here Garnet is having both a crisis…
Film’s made during the period in question are not what I’m talking about. They are time capsules. I’m talking about film’s made some years after the era in question; film’s that are recreations and reflections back. Something that captures the coming-of-age in nowheresville vibe of Dazed and Confused, but set to an…
DO IT. I’ve seen them a number of times and I’ve never been let down. A fantastic live act. To maximize the experience, try and get a pit going.
Hell yes! One of my favorite acts out there right now.
Nobody could have seen this coming. No siree.
Dammit, her L.A. date conflicts with another show I’m seeing with friends out of town. Looks like I might need to pay San Diego a visit.
Man, that’s disappointing to hear about Everything Sucks! I was a youth in the 90’s and have a deep love of Alt-rock of the era, and I’ve really felt like that’s a decade that Hollywood has ignored the nostalgia train for (but hey, how about ANOTHER show/movie set in the 80’s!). Anyway I heard about Everything Sucks!,…
You mention Chyna and man, did her issues sneak through onto the Surreal Life as well. I remember how fragile she came across. I just wanted to give her a big hug and tell her that she was okay. Her stint on Celebrity Rehab underlined it, but it was already apparent in an ostensibly happy show about celebs living in a…
Saw Turnstile in concert. They killed it. The crowd was crazy enthusiastic, perhaps even a little too enthusiastic for my tastes. How, you ask? I got kicked in the head by someone doing a flip stage dive (and there were many. The kids were getting some serious air too). Now, Bird MILF is a veteran of punk shows and…
Truly, I am geatful that these brave young men took shots of soju for my freedom.
Along with Hedwig me the Angry INch and VElvet Goldmine, this is one of my glam classics. I often wonder if there was a cute brunette in DePalma’s hometown that rejected him in high school who later saw Phantom and said, “Ah. So that’s what you did with that.”
All good choices, but I am particularly stoked to see Dead Man on there. It’s a stone cold classic no one seems to talk about.
Dazed & Confused- An anthropology lesson embedded in a stoney hangout comedy, this movie nails what growing up where I grew up, when I grew up felt like and does so with a TNT soundtrack.
It’s tough for me to pick a single favorite movie, but there’s a pretty strong battle royale going on between 2001: A Space Odyssey, Velvet Goldmine, Inherent Vice, Hedwig, and Dazed & Confused along with a few others. How can I pick just one?!
