katherinespiers: Sure, you could find a list of ALL the trucks in LA somewhere else…or, you could read my curated list featuring both the best of the bunch, and those that deserve a strident mocking. Better! Another Taco Truck list to throw into the fray …

Bon Iver sunrise concert at Hollywood Forever Cemetery (Taken at 6am, Sunday, September 27th as the fog finally lifts). The sleepover was one of the coolest experiences! I hope they do many more of these shows. (via TwitVid - @vickistep)

Let’s all hang out here tonight. Soulwax and one of Daft Punk’s pals will be spinning, and there just weren’t enough internet nerds last time I went to this party. Deal? Deal.

Horror Short Film Help!

Hey Tumblangeles, Apologies in advance for using this as a classified ad. I’m in pre-production on a horror short film called NIGHT OF THE PUNKS. It’s supposed to be an 80’s throwback punk rock horror flick in the vein of Night of the Demons and Return of the Living Dead. I’m looking for a couple things that I thought people here might be able to help with… ...

I will not read your fucking script →

It rarely takes more than a page to recognize that you’re in the presence of someone who can write, but it only takes a sentence to know you’re dealing with someone who can’t.

boringloser: This article wins the article award because they reported to me a spelling error on my blog that I went back and fixed. And that’s the problem. How can a web series that pulls the wool over The Man’s eyes continue once The Man removes the wool? Did we learn nothing from the story of Icarus? OK, perhaps flying a little too close to the sun isn’t the right comparison here. […] So...

SKID ROW →

“Skid Row” is a 50-square block area in downtown Los Angeles where an average of 90,000 homeless and transient people live on any given night. More than just a place - it’s a way of life, a mind set, the last resort for those who have given up on society and, in many cases, themselves. In the feature documentary SKID ROW, Pras Michel - one third of the successful hip-hop band The Fugees - lives on...
