So, Basically, I’m A Dick And Offended The Bronx

Posted by Chris Harris on September 9, 2011 in My Bad, News

The other day, when I wrote about Anthrax Day being declared in The Bronx, I made a reference to muggings. It was a joke. I love The Bronx. I used to basically live in a place on Maitland Avenue. I also made reference to the fact that the press release I miraculously received seemed as Read More

The Sword’s Trivett Wingo Quits

Posted by Chris Harris on October 11, 2010 in Departures, My Bad, News

I fucking knew something was up when those tour dates were cancelled and I was in the middle of writing a “The Sword Are Breaking The Fuck Up” post when all of a sudden, a press release arrives: “On the heels of the cancellation of their European tour, Austin, TX’s The Sword are also regretfully Read More

Slayer, Megadeth Touring Together Even More This Fall

So, here’s the thing. I’ve spoken to Dave Mustaine so much lately, I totally ignored a press release I received this morning in my inbox about a bunch of dates Megadeth and Slayer are doing this fall. This is something I’ve known about for a few weeks, and I forgot that it wasn’t news. My Read More
