Word has been trickling out this week about Nashville’s “official” hoops squad, The Pioneer’s. While our newest franchise isn’t sanctioned by the NBA, NBDL, CBA, USBL, WNBA, or even the defunct ABA, it is our only “official” basketball team because we don’t have another squad of hoopsters in town.

Hey! Remember 90s alternative radio? Remember sweet alt-rocker Duncan Sheik? If so, you probably remember this: [youtube_sc=http://youtu.be/A-oh-tP6RvA] What I remember most about Duncan Sheik is his presence in a time in which there were truly great movie soundtracks that stood alone from (and often eclipsed) their films.

It’s Black Friday which means that we are exhausted after waiting in line elbowing old ladies outside of Wal Mart last night to get a sweet deal on some electronics. We still can’t believe we were all able to pool our money to get that USB Thumb Drive for only $5. It was totally…

Japandroids (or JPNDRDS as I used to always see it stylized- whatever happened to that?) are a bit of an accident. The Canadian garage/noise rock duo had effectively called it quits before their debut album, Post-Nothing, had even seen a proper release.
