Have you ever thought about the evolution of music? How life-changing events and struggles a large group of people endure together can change how they express themselves? Last night, while flipping through my plethora of cable stations, I stumbled across a documentary on VH1 Classic called, "NY77: T...

The Pinkertones are a local Weezer cover band that plays all of the tunes from The Blue Album and Pinkerton. Or according to them, the only albums from the band worth playing. They will be playing at the Ravari Room (2657 North High - located next to Hound Dogs Pizza) on Saturday, March 21, 2009 a...

Times are tough. If you haven't lost your job already, you're probably worrying about it and if you're lucky enough to land a job, chances are you'll want to go out and celebrate. Even something as simple as dinner out one night with a close friend or significant other may seem like a risky stretc...

Spending two years post-grad school in Washington, DC has made me very educated in the ways of Five Guys Burgers & Fries. In fact, the very first meal I had after unloading the moving truck was at one of their Alexandria, VA locations. My new neighbors insisted that it be the first thing I cross o...

After months of anticipation and lots of rumors surrounding this year's Bonnaroo lineup, the wait is finally over. Turns out the rumors are mostly true and Roo goers will get The Boss and two nights of Phish. For me (and probably most others) only one night will be needed, but I could not be happier...

First, let me say everyone needs to get hip to Eat This, Not That. It's astonishing how much saturated fat, calories and sodium is in the food served up by many leading restaurants. For example, it is better to eat a Big Mac than a Whopper. Save yourself 220 calories and 18 grams of fat by making th...

The current buzz around the music community (and my cubicle) for the past month has revolved completely around the band, Animal Collective. While these guys have been together through nine years and nine studio albums, they have finally reached a point where their critically acclaimed music is at th...

Candice, who has her own blog and guests blogs on Beats & Eats from time to time, has a rant against Applebee's and Weight Watchers. I saw this as a great follow up piece to my own rant on chain restaurants and their practice of hiding or disguising the basic nutritional information of their dishes...

In pursuit of the ultimate cliche, I joined a gym to kick off the New Year. Being that I live in the new, trendy, and consumer driven Easton area of Columbus, I certainly had my pick when it came to facilities. There is Lifestyle Family Fitness which is small but does the job, there is the megaple...

Here is the concert lineup for the month of February. Nothing too intense on the radar, but I expect a big crowd to show up for the Yonder Mountain String Band (shown) as usual. I could really get into ZOSO: The Ultimate Led Zeppelin Experience and the Bob Marley Tribute. For all you blues fans o...
