If you’re planning on a night out on Broadway this fall, but don’t own enough land and people to afford a ticket to The Book of Mormon, don’t overlook the 30th anniversary revival of Glengarry Glen Ross, which returns for a limited run on November 11 at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre. The infinitely quotable play, … Read more
To say Macklemore is an up and coming artist is almost a discredit to his decade long career, and yet, it’s really the best way to describe him. Just a few weeks ago, the names “Macklemore & Ryan Lewis” would have not been recognized by the average person outside of Seattle, WA. But, due … Read more

It is a grand tradition that, at a Nationals home game in the middle of the fourth inning, Nationals Park hosts a presidential race. Literally. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt have been running competitively since 2006. Good old Teddy Roosevelt has lost the last 534 races, but remarkably, yesterday afternoon, he finally won one. In the past, … Read more

In the spirit of Lady Gaga‘s upcoming tour, I was inspired to write a little bit about the superstar and her unique fanbase. The fans of Lady Gaga and other similar artists (Madonna, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Rihanna – to name a few) are incredibly diverse, so it’s kind of hard to pinpoint just one … Read more
You thought you got rid of them in the early 00’s, but you can’t escape them. In the past year alone, the Jonas Brothers have announced a reunion, 98 Degrees are working on new material, and supergroup NKOTBSB continue to perform. Not only that, but new boybands like The Wanted and One Direction (speaking of, check … Read more
Shane Doan, Phoenix captain and winger decides to stay with the Coyotes for the 4th straight year, despite considerably better offers from other teams.
