Kristen Stewart to Play Joan Jett in Runaways Biopic

I guess the dark air of Twilight caught the attention of music video director Floria Sigismondi, as the woman behind Christina Aguilera's "Fighter" video, is set to write and helm a biopic on the first all-girl rock band, The Runaways, and wants vampire victim Kristen Stewart to take on the roll of rock legend Joan Jett. If you're scratching your head, I'm with you. Stewart can certainly pull off the look and is a fair actress by most accounts, but I'm going to find it hard to bridge her swoon

Sunday Brunch at the Carnelian Room

555 California Street, San Francisco, CA | 415.433.7500 | website The Carnelian Room is perched up high near the top of the Bank of America Building, offering kick ass views and a seriously fine Sunday brunch.   We took an express elevator that zipped us up 52 gravity defying floors, causing my ears to pop, then floated gently to a stop.  The doors opened to a dimly lit lobby with dark paneled walls where we were greeted by a receptionist, who summoned the maitre’d.  He seated us next to the

Pareidolia Roundup: December 2008

It's been a while since I've done a pareidolia roundup, so a few of these are a couple months old. Virgin Mary in Salsa Stain "Elvia Alvarez was recently using her blender to make salsa in her kitchen. Some of the salsa splattered onto the wall, creating what Alvarez says is the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Since this happened. Alvaraz says it's a sign that people need to be nicer to each other." Funny. I thought it was a sign she needs to be more careful when making salsa. Jesus in G

Willie Nelson in South Bend (11/28/08) (review)

http://media.www.iusbpreface.com By Shaun Christensen Somewhere around the time I got to the third full floor of cars in the parking garage, I realized that this concert was going to be a little different from most of the shows in this area. Downtown South Bend was bustling with people on November 28 and the energy grew more intense the closer to the Morris Performing Arts Center you got. Outside the Morris people of all colors, ages, and demeanors were meeting, greeting, smoking, drinkin

Repost: Howlin' Wolf - S/T (2nd Album US 1962)

Size: 61.2 MBBitrate: 256mp3Ripped By: ChrisGoesRockArtwork IncludedJapan 24-Bit RemasterIn the history of the blues, there has never been anyone quite like the Howlin' Wolf. Six foot three and close to 300 pounds in his salad days, the Wolf was the primal force of the music spun out to its ultimate conclusion. A Robert Johnson may have possessed more lyrical insight, a Muddy Waters more dignity, and a B.B. King certainly more technical expertise, but no one could match him for the singular abil

Trip details... I can share.... ;o)

First and foremost, the "body count" was WAY tipped in the favour of yours truly! It's about bloody time too! Typically as you approach the topless or clothing optional areas of any Caribbean resort, the odds are stacked hugely in the favour of the Lady of the House. Young 20 somethings running around with 6 packs yet to truly discover that, "round" .... IS a shape. You know the drill everyone! Beach Volleyball is a constant repetition of the scene with Maverick, Iceman, Goose and as Peb's would

My Best Christmas Gifts And Music Wish List

When I make a wish list of best Christmas gifts, the first five selections are easy. However, the last five are not as easy since there are actually a lot more presents than five that I want. An acoustic guitar is at the top of my dream wish list. What would be even better than asking for a couple of music related items would be to be given a pass to go through a Cascio Interstate music store and pick anything I wanted. Although that might be the best gift to get, I would still have a hard tim
