A sad week for LAist as they lose their trusted and amazing editor Tony Pierce to the LA Times, but what a blast his last week was. He shared his 25 Favorite CDs of 2007 and wrote a great review of just a good movie, No Country For Old Men. At UCLA, thousands of students celebrated the end of their quarter by running around campus in their undies (lots of photos in a two-part......

Over the last couple months, this Phillyist has developed a habit of bringing earplugs to concerts, and it's a practice we're going to continue. Not just because they majorly reduce the whole post-concert aural equivalent of cottonmouth and ear-ringing. But actually, earplugs really improve the concert-going experience by cutting down the effect of crowd noise and letting you focus on the music. Plus, in many cases, when music is played at an excessive volume, it......

No matter how much your musical tastes evolve over time, sometimes you can't help but go back to what you liked during your teenage years. When this Phillyist was in junior high, there was one type of music, and only one type of music, emanating from my bedroom stereo: Metal.

In case you haven't noticed by now, this Phillyist likes Fair to Midland. A lot. We dug 'em when we saw them in July, so we jumped at the chance to see them again. We walked into the show expecting much the same as we got the first time around, and for the first time, that's exactly what we got. Darroh Sudderth is still a hell of a vocalist but something of a recluse in......
