Listen to the new Eight and a Half album on First Spins

April 4th, 2012

Before they were One Direction they were five guys competing solo on X-Factor until Nicole Scherzinger convinced them that they were better off together as a group. Imagine their surprise when the suggestion worked and their individual powers combined made them into one of the fastest rising boy bands as of late. But I’m not [...]

VIDEO UPDATE: Pigeon poop ends Kings Of Leon show

July 27th, 2010

Bands have had to endure many things while performing on stage. Bottles (both glass and plastic, empty and full), cups, women’s bras and/or panties, various food items and even people are often thrown during gigs, but on Friday night, Kings Of Leon had to avoid something entirely different. During a show at the Verizon Wireless [...]

The Stills’ Tim Fletcher writes song about Alex Ovechkin

April 23rd, 2010

Anyone who watches hockey or has even the slightest knowledge of the sport can attest to the electricity that Washington Capitals forward Alexander Ovechkin brings to any ice rink his yellow-laced skates touch. Tim Fletcher, singer/guitarist for The Stills, feels the same way. Even though Ovechkin is pretty much single-handedly killing Fletcher’s home team – [...]

Arts and Crafts

March 17th, 2010

Sure, having a major international event in Canada is an honor, but I regret to admit that what excites me the most is the entertainment. Two weeks of cool Canadian artists performing at FREE venues all across the city! Uh, does it get [...]

News for Wednesday: Comin’ Out Swingin’ Edition

June 24th, 2009

* It sounded like a good idea at the time: The Stills are already working on a follow-up album to their acclaimed Oceans Will Rise… and possibly eating “hallucinogenic trail mix” while doing so. FTW. * Nick Jonas has testified in front of the U.S Senate hearing on funding for Juvenille Diabetes Research. The hilarious [...]
