I’m sorry we haven’t posted much this past week but thankfully all our current contributors are putting in massive hours in their respective real world jobs. Hopefully things will slow down a bit shortly and we get moving on the backlog of post ideas.  

Thanks,

Insider Picks

Next week will be all about the movies so lets hit the music this weekend. Friday night the Insider pick is an a tough one but we went with The Austin Torpedos.  Why?  Their interesting mix of  Johnny Cash and Duke Ellington with a little Elvis on top is too good to pass up.  Saturday we’re off to Dodge Street to throw some darts and step up on the gothabilly tip with Rev. Bob & the Darkness.  And for you hip-hop fans our old friend DJ Cee Block has teamed up with DJ E-Ness to do Saturdays over at Spirits (rumor has it that they are dropping some cash into sound and lights for the upstairs) we’ll keep you informed.

    Holy Land Hardball is one of the best movies I have seen in years. Funny, very interesting and heartwarming. There’s something for everyone. Highly recommend it.
