April 30th - 1:42 p.m.

Like a lot of people, I consider brewing coffee and making rap music to be two of human civilization's greatest accomplishments, but those two things rarely come into direct contact. (Rumors about the existence of a so-called Cappadonnaccino remain, as far as I know, simply rumors.) But the caffeine geniuses at Intelligentsia have taken it upon themselves to remedy the situation. Their roasters have come up with custom blends for the Stones Throw label and several of its artists.

There will be "a few bags" of the Stones Throw blend available Thursday night at the label's showcase at the Abbey Pub, which BTW is pretty much guaranteed to be great. Stones Throw is mighty particular about not putting its name on anything half-assed, and so is Intelligentsia. Their collabo coffee should be amazing.

April 8th - 1:12 p.m.

I feel like putting up a YouTube post without any substantial commentary is sorta like cheating, but really, do I need to clutter up the perfect simplicity of Thunder Horse's promo clip for the upcoming Flosstradamus 4/20 party with a bunch of words? I don't think so.

October 21st - 1:28 p.m.
Preceding their Abbey Pub show tonight, Murs and Kidz in the Hall will appear at 4:30 PM at Jugrnaut Clothing, 427 S. Dearborn. The artists will be signing autographs, posing for photos, and hawking CDs--and if you're lucky, you might win a couple of free tickets to the Abbey show, or possibly a few other treats. Giveaways are fun. Get on it.
