My book IS THIS IT comes out on September 8, just under two weeks from today. I recently unboxed a package of books from the publisher to take an early look. You can PREORDER TODAY to ensure IS THIS IT is in your mailbox ASAP.

My favorite use of a Springsteen song in a movie.

The great Philip Seymour Hoffman died 10 years ago today. Thinking about one of the greatest “one scene only” performances of all time.

Honestly the Garth Hudson entrance here is probably the single greatest moment in any rock concert film. Especially because it’s reserved for Garth Hudson, supremely unassuming genius.

The first trailer for A COMPLETE UNKNOWN (dir. James Mangold)

The best needle drop by anybody, maybe. Single-handedly made me a lifetime Stones fan.

Deerhunter Month continues at Evil Speakers with 2010’s HALCYON DIGEST, possibly their best regarded album and definitely the slickest. Among the topics of conversation is “Desire Lines,” my favorite indie rock song of the 21st century.

This clip of Vanilla Fudge playing “Keep Me Hanging On” in 1968 has been in my regular rotation lately. I’m convinced it’s the original “dudes rock!” moment. The purity of the dudes and their rocking is unmatched.

One of the funniest scenes in a TV show ever.

Excited to announce that August is 90s Neil Month at Evil Speakers! Every Monday I’ll be talking about a 90s Neil Young album, starting with 1990’s RAGGED GLORY, one of my all time faves. Simply no other music I’d rather hear in the dog days of summer.

RIP David Johansen. This is rock n roll.

Radiohead covering Cinnamon Girl

Historical footage of Jesus rising from the grave on Easter morning.

Deerhunter, “Twilight At Carbon Lake” live at All Tomorrow’s Parties, 2013

Jonathan Bernstein’s recent Justin Townes Earle biography is a riveting book about a talented, troubled guy. It sent me down the rabbit hole of his work, which I wrote about this week.

What’s the greatest fictional band of all time?

Sweet Jesus.

Deerhunter Month at Evil Speakers concludes today with a conversation about 2013’s wild and rabid MONOMANIA. Here is their infamous performance of the title track on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

Hey, it’s Deerhunter Month at Evil Speakers! Join me as we talk about a different album every Monday in July by one of the great indie rock bands of the 21st century.

Thinking about “Box Of Rain” in FREAKS AND GEEKS.
