• We Are the Free?

  They are still out there monitoring you, tracking you, telling you what to do, what to view, and what to think. Our lack of freedom keeps showing up in the news.

• Tales From The Rock 'N' Roll Highway

  You won't find a Dave Marsh-style sociological history of the touring practices of popular music in Marley Brant's new book, "Tales From The Rock 'N' Roll Highway", but it's a light, fun read and also a sobering introduction for any musician considering hitting the road.

• Mayor Red's Islamofascist buddy

  Mayor Red Ken Livingstone thinks it's fine and dandy to invite a gay-hating, anti-Semitic, pro-suicide bomber, wife-beating advocate, in the form of Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, into the U.K., and when the media and public express outrage, Mayor Red blames it on xenophobia.

• Shut up, Trump!

  I guess when you're rich and famous, you must suffer delusions of being able to talk all sorts of rubbish and sound like someone who actually cares more about the nation than your bank accounts.

  If you dig albums that sound good with the windows down and the sun shining, and miss that feeling from when you were a kid where every song on a new album was an awesome new discovery, Sahara Hotnights' “Kiss & Tell” will get you off.

• Return To Sin City: Gram Parsons Tribute

  Grabbing the sultry and sexy siren he shuffles up to the microphone and mumbles in a slightly alcohol induced (this is Keith Richards after all) English cockney something about how he gets to perform with Norah. With a cigarette dangling between his fingers and a beaded headband keeping his hair out of his face he goes on to say "I've got say a couple things about G.P."

Video

• Red Dragon

  Manhunter is superior to Red Dragon in almost every way. The production is less slick (in a good way), the main character (portrayed by William Peterson, best known today from CSI) brooding and effective, the primary villian for more frightening and -- bear with me for the heresy -- Brian Cox's Hannibal Leckter is more chilling.
