It’s “What’s Hot and What’s Important”, but most of all, it’s what the On the Verge hosts live and breathe. Producers/Hosts Joelle Caputa, Jordana Reim and Jess Sager bring viewers backstage for OTV-exclusive acoustic shows, to the red carpet, the runway and… the farm (watch and see!). The girls are playful and conscientious, some straightedge, some vegan, and all living it up with regular doses of rock n’ roll. <br /><br /><br />Planet Verge and ambush.tv began production for On the Verge in October 2008 and are proud to announce the debut of episodes online at www.planetverge.com. Episodes are filmed on location as well as at the ambush.tv studios in Hoboken, New Jersey.<br /><br /><br />This week’s episodes feature acclaimed art pop-rock band the Matches. The band debuted two unreleased songs exclusively for On the Verge at an acoustic performance backstage at Ace of Clubs in New York City. The Matches headlined an On the Verge-sponsored show at the venue that night, so stay tuned for more live footage and backstage exclusives with the band.<br /><br /><br /><br />On The Verge’s “SCENE OUT LOUD” segments feature interviews and performances (sometimes OTV-exclusives) with must-hear musicians from the USA and abroad. Some you already know and love, others we’ll introduce to your playlist. <br /><br /><br /><br />EXPECT THESE ARTISTS AND MORE FROM “SCENE OUT LOUD” SEGMENTS: <br /><br />* Sohodolls (UK)<br />* Hanson<br />* Funeral For a Friend (UK)<br />* Butch Walker<br />* The Academy Is…<br />* The Matches <br />* Drive By <br />* Those Mockingbirds <br />* Chris Unck <br />* Young Love<br />* Black Gold<br />* Jet Lag Gemini<br />* Solange Knowles <br /><br /><br /><br />On The Verge’s “START SOMETHING” segments draw attention to vital social issues including going vegan, preventing global warming, rescuing shelter animals and saving endangered animals.<br /><br /><br />EXPECT THIS AND MORE FROM START SOMETHING SEGMENTS:<br /><br />* Vegan Drinks Night at Angels & Kings in NYC<br />* Going veg with Daniela Sea of The L Word, Maria Headley author of The Year of Yes, DJ Rob Hitt, Jasmin Singer of Farm Sanctuary, Joshua Katcher of The Discerning Brute, Jason Das of Super Vegan, Brooke McManus of Vegan Babe and many more.<br />* Ending Cruelty At Factory Farms with coverage of Farm Sanctuary’s Winter Wonderland – interviews including Farm Sanctuary founder Gene Baur and event organizer Chloe Jo Berman<br />* Starting your own chocolate company with Gabrielle Brick of The One Chocolate Bar<br />* Super Pet Expo where we get in a cage with wolves and meet Elwood, The World’s Ugliest Dog <br /><br /><br />And of course, we have our girly fun through “SHAKE IT UP” segments, which find us on the runway, in the makeup chair and more. <br /><br /><br />EXPECT THIS AND MORE FROM “SHAKE IT UP” SEGMENTS:<br /><br />* Cosmogirl Star Launch with Natasha Bedingfield & Solange Knowles<br />* Pin-up Girl makeovers with Bombshell Betty<br />* Fashion A Cure (Indie music & fashion show to benefit The American Cancer Society)<br />* Makeup 101 with The Glam Fairy <br /><br /><br />Fans, established and aspiring media professionals and musicians are already tuning into On The Verge on a regular basis:<br /><br /><br />"ON THE VERGE is very cute! I love the philanthropic twist, seems like you’ve got something very exciting started!"<br />– Rosalynn Basford Beauty/Fashion Publicist, Arlene Howard Public Relations (Make Love Not Trash)<br /><br /><br />"I love On The Verge - it's an exciting show and l liked getting to see another side to the bands and artists. The girls of Planet Verge are never afraid to ask the questions that we all want to hear - like in the Black Gold episode! The show ROCKS! I can't wait for more"<br />– Asi Meskin, President of Comfortably Numb Records, a Division of East West <br /><br /><br />“Flat out the coolest and easiest way to see your favorite artists interviewed from their environment. Plus you get to learn what all the cool kids are up to!”<br />– Justin Rubinstein, VP A&R, The Record Company <br /><br /><br />"Joelle Caputa and Planet Verge were pivotal in spreading the word about my previous band Fixer, as well as many other bands who have grown from being virtually unknown to being known around the world! I am extremely excited to see that with On The Verge TV, Planet Verge continues to get down and dirty to bring you inside the world of not only the bands you already know, but more importantly the ones that you don't!"<br />– Jason Brown Production (MySpace.com/Jbrownproduction) <br /><br /><br />"The site’s looking really awesome, and the show is great! I liked the interview with Daniela Sea. I really love that you’re putting so much [animal rights] stuff on your site! "<br />– Candace Kassman, Peta Asia Pacific <br /><br /><br />“You’re telegenic!”<br />– Ken Krongard, President, Major Label Scout.com <br /><br /><br />"On The Verge is a powerhouse program! Not only do they interview interesting artists across genres, but they also make it spicy. More than just learning about the music (which you do within the interviews) you also get to know the artists on a more personal and refreshing level as the Planet Verge girls create an enticing environment for the artists to loosen up with their own understanding of music and the music industry."<br />– Marissa Kraines, Red Bull Records <br /><br /><br />“On the Verge has been so supportive of the charitable events I have planned, freely assisting and taking part in so many ways. They not only bring you the hottest interviews and information, but they've also found a way to personally bring you into the fun! Entertaining, informative and charitable, these ladies are music to my ears.”<br />– Carly Hood, The American Cancer Society<br /><br /><br />“ I love your mission statement. I think that so many people our age put so much attention on what doesn't matter and having a website and show like yours which actually educates people our age is amazing.” <br />– On the Verge fan & Hodgkins lymphoma survivor <br /><br /><br />ABOUT PLANET VERGE:<br /><br /><br />MUSIC IS OUR BUSINESS...

Next DJ AM -- DJ MILESNewport Beach, CA<br /><br />We all are familiar with the one and only DJ AM, but who will be the next big time DJ to hit the scene? With varieties of music tracks being spun at clubs, parties, and on the radio these days, wouldn’t one want to know who the performer behind this music is? DJ Miles is not just your ordinary DJ. This disk jockey lives a double life as a student by day, and DJ by night. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5NWu3P8lmgptwwT8X5XXJDgl7hbS6qcFAo-eAMze47NonRJNJnZ4BnylZw7mdBe8urhc6y3ENcby6xr2trF2_EosaI0zrXtEGgHKU9I5eCGAWsgZHn9CrZkesq3w1FaPbJ3fOoQ/s1600-h/n52595578681_1488840_3030.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 282px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5NWu3P8lmgptwwT8X5XXJDgl7hbS6qcFAo-eAMze47NonRJNJnZ4BnylZw7mdBe8urhc6y3ENcby6xr2trF2_EosaI0zrXtEGgHKU9I5eCGAWsgZHn9CrZkesq3w1FaPbJ3fOoQ/s320/n52595578681_1488840_3030.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331260213301255954" /></a><br /><br />Growing up in a musically influenced home, his dad first introduced him to the music business as his father played in the band, The Sound Company. Miles is proud to have grown up with music starting at a young age as he comments “It’s in my blood.” DJ Miles started by assisting his father at bar mitzvahs and weddings, which has now led to spinning at the hottest events in Los Angeles and Orange County. He is now able to score supreme jobs such as performing on a regular basis at local Southern California clubs such as Hollywood’s Les Deux, as well as playing with notable artists like E-40, DJ Felli Fel, Kaba Modern from MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew, and several others. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9ZLwiy1WwuA-g7BJi_kxxmN58so8oBi8u1JeeI3hy6kdpnQY8yB1KUxUZDsp4CO7NDGvRAkUfaVkjnzdWd8Wg3_faMn6se0s-wxnkda_inw6yCaHyfOkVwypyPANhRo2sU5H4Vg/s1600-h/n52595578681_1489132_9149.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9ZLwiy1WwuA-g7BJi_kxxmN58so8oBi8u1JeeI3hy6kdpnQY8yB1KUxUZDsp4CO7NDGvRAkUfaVkjnzdWd8Wg3_faMn6se0s-wxnkda_inw6yCaHyfOkVwypyPANhRo2sU5H4Vg/s320/n52595578681_1489132_9149.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331260213438938914" /></a><br /><br />This nineteen year old DJ’s career has just kicked into gear, yet many opportunities are set for him in the future. DJ Miles has realized that starting from the bottom with bar mitzvahs every weekend has truly helped him out as it has given him a solid foundation with knowing when to play the right song at the right time. As DJ Miles puts it, “DJs play incredible songs, they have good ears for good music, but it is about playing those songs at the right time. You can get people to a certain point and play whatever you want, but you gotta take passion in the song.” It is apparent that Miles has a definite advantage over other DJs. Besides being able to play the right song at the right time unlike other DJs, Miles has strongly shown that passion is the number one factor. He is keen about the emotion he puts into his music as he says, “I get a feeling in my heart where I could just play anything I want and people will just love it. I can feel so much emotion in my music, it’s incredible. The thing about some guys is that there is not any emotion involved in it. For me, there’s so much emotion involved in it and it makes a difference and people can see that.” His energy clearly glowed in the interview as he couldn’t stop talking about his love for his job. There are tons of performers who share their music with the world, but there are only a few who have a radiant spirit that no one can stop, and DJ Miles has surely proven to be one of the few. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggBoHYaiJNu2j1SjechqTxktkQOV8_YeLfaAS3nUnB1qQTEDFqKx5jBBFBaGmNjZ0ANlwYoHWGxAC6zdfVud0Gqrf4hg7_2NVywJtAvyF6GHBsLCYsfBTmIADFeJcDtmiEjLZGmg/s1600-h/n650528967_2106280_1621.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggBoHYaiJNu2j1SjechqTxktkQOV8_YeLfaAS3nUnB1qQTEDFqKx5jBBFBaGmNjZ0ANlwYoHWGxAC6zdfVud0Gqrf4hg7_2NVywJtAvyF6GHBsLCYsfBTmIADFeJcDtmiEjLZGmg/s320/n650528967_2106280_1621.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331261603147650626" /></a><br /><br />Speaking with Miles, his passion for music was unquestionable as he profoundly expressed his zeal by saying, “I know I said passion a thousand times but music is a passion, not a job. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. This is what I love to do, I love it, I can’t even explain it.” <br /><br />As for future plans with Miles, only time will tell.

Mainstream music fans will--pardon the pun-- eat them up. The band's debut album is good, but I have to say the live set puts the recording to shame. I actually prefer the demo of "Dirty Little Girl" (the favorite of mine and I'm sure a million others) to the version that made the final cut. And of course, the live version was the highlight of the night.<br /><br />There didn't seem to be any Eighteen Visions fans in the crowd. I would have been able to tell. They would have been the cool people. Everyone in attendance at this show was a bit weird. The kind of people who wear the t-shirt of the band they're there to see at the show. And apparently also the kind who go out in public wearing nothing but bras, pleather underwear and boots up to their crotches. But I blame that on the fact that this was Snocore and Static-X was headlining.<br /><br />The point I was trying to make, however, is that the original hardcore Eighteen Visions fans are most likely NOT going to be at these shows. Those who jumped on the bandwagon for their final album, which was much more melodic and mainstream friendly, may have carried over. But unfortunately, as usual, the major label 18V was on never did them justice and rarely seemed to make them a priority. So those fans never had a chance to get a head start on the Burn Halo train.<br /><br />It was great to see that Hart hasn't lost his edge. He's a captivating frontman and I look forward to seeing another show. <br /><br />One thing I have to say, however, is that the other guys in the band scream "LA rock." There is totally a different breed of rock musician out there on the west coast. I wish the other band members didn't try so hard to look like they just came back from hanging out with Avenged Sevenfold. That's when I shed a few tears in remembrance of Eighteen Visions. They eluded their own brand of cool. <br /><br />Expect to hear lots more about Burn Halo this year. They've got the total easy to market package and unlike some of their peers- talent.<br /><br />I spoke with James while this new musical venture of his was still forming.<br /><a href="http://planetverge.blogspot.com/2008/01/james-hart-unleashed.html"><span style="font-weight:bold;">CLICK HERE TO READ IT</span></a><br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">*By Joelle, who wishes she had Sirius right now so she can be listening as our PV Girl, Jordana, chat with Cosmo Radio. </span><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUuowCRinR6L1CAlG4QJbwQ5YaHj793vsCyyV6wmxF8GCBVuhStkQoH_yfMvtcncxFDDxGBriVaHRac6ums1U2rsiZIkSFl9Nkr9Amf5idqxJ-VMZ5S4m8SQVTf0UP992A6mVs1w/s1600-h/bh7.gif"><img style="display:block;

These slums happen to be in India, making <em>Slumdog</em> arguably the most successful movie - in American markets - with India starring front and center. The implausible love story and game show tension are not really the main attractions. (Really, did anyone not see the Three Musketeers question coming?)<br /><br />What made the movie unique was the frank depiction of Indian poverty and the stark contrast between the country’s wealthy and poor. For Americans watching from the safety of a multiplex, the plight of the impoverished in India is astounding and probably helped propel the movie to Oscar and box-office glory. <br /><br />The film has been criticized by some for glossing up the slums a bit too much. (As one Indian friend put it “go to those slums. You’re not going to find Freida Pinto.”) And, yes, there have been more realistic films made illustrating these this poverty. But the fact of the matter is that this is the first Indian-centric film to achieve significant critical and audience success in America, and it shows a small, if less than realistic, shot of the hardships endured by too many every day. <br /><br />20% of all children who die before age 5 do so in India. And in the five minutes you’ve spent reading this, an Indian woman has died, as one dies every 5 minutes. There is a severe need for improved healthcare and last week, the New York Young Professionals Chapter of the American India Foundation (AIF) hosted their second annual benefit dinner to raise money in an attempt to make an impact on this appalling situation. Raising money for the Apna Clinic, a public health initiative, the Young Professionals will help fund a center to serve 50,000 – 60,000 migrant workers and their families in Mustafabad. The clinic will provide basic screenings and education as well as reproductive and women’s care. <br /><br />Saturday night is not generally when most people want to hang out and discuss issues of poverty, but the 200+ people who showed up to Vermillion on Manhattan’s east side were happy to use their weekend to try and help. And the many volunteers who spent weeks planning the event were thrilled that such an enthusiastic crowd gathered for this cause. An undeniable success, the event raised over $14,000 for the Apna Clinic. Not quite 20 million rupees, but an impressive effort nonetheless! <em>[Ed note: suddenly thinking we should get one of these volunteers on a game show...]</em><br /><br />Whether people are drawn to Indian causes because of a popular film, family connections, or other interests, there is a real and growing need for change in the country. If a mildly cheesy Bollywood type film helps raise awareness among people who can help, then it can be as glossy as it wants to be. <br /><br /><em>By Jesy, who falls firmly into the "Other" category</em>Planet Verge magazinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463330546088852noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36707318.post-29853565764270036492009-04-11T15:54:00.000-07:002009-04-11T16:01:01.726-07:00Getting ready for our photoshoot!<span style="font-weight:bold;">Sneak a peak as the On The Verge hosts- Joelle, Jordana & Jessica- raid Posche Boutique in Wayne, NJ to pick out clothes for their upcoming photoshoot!<br /></span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij8iKEJh_RhjBST8lcyZDlS5z8v9JZry-hwgThXr2SpOLtwFDQjZBNP1WXaoCVAn5abVSzpSeyZ21Dxksu9S8pMnAp_DZrYjx0tDni2WIEzeZYhGoYJ-0WWQGZIuAfzSSUwO6bjA/s1600-h/posche12.gif"><img style="display:block;

Elizabeth's 100% vegan shoes are so stylish we had a hard time choosing! Joelle fell in love with the heels and swears they are the ONLY heels she can walk in! Not only are they comfortable, but they form to your feet so you don't feel like you're going to fall over. <br /><br />Anyway, keep an eye on our feet to see which ones we picked and head over to www.olsenhaus.com to get a pair of your own! <span style="font-weight:bold;">Celebs including Emily Deschanel, Finola Hughes, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Princess Superstar are fans</span>.

Online</a> reports that <em>Medium</em> casted Rumer Willis as a prostitute in an upcoming episode.<br /><br />This is an extremely poor casting decision on a few different fronts. One, Rumer can't act. Two, no one actually likes her, so this won't garner any viewers.

Blink arguably hit the height of their popularity with 1999’s <em>Enema of the State</em>, which was pretty much the soundtrack for my senior year of high school. Thanks, Blink. While Limp Bizkit inexplicably put out albums well into the 2000s, the band peaked in 1999 with <em>Significant Other</em>. Jane’s Addition suffered a tumultuous relationship throughout the 90s and as a result, sprinkled the decade with their alt-rock tunes. <br /><br />The new wave of 90s influence led the COO of Nederlander Concerts to tell <em>Rolling Stone </em>“[i]t’s a great time to be in a Nineties band” (Issue 1075, pg 24). <em>RS </em>cites the successful tours of other 90s acts Stone Temple Pilots and My Bloody Valentine in 2008 as evidence that the market for the 10 to 15 year-old music is growing and the audience is primed for all of these tours in the coming months. The magazine also uses a market researcher to argue that the original fanbase “Generation X’ers now have a lot of discretionary income… and now they’re starting to focus on themselves.”<br /><br />Happy as I am that my high-school years are coming back into vogue, I have my doubts about how well these tours will be received. First, the expectation that Generation X is going to carry these tours shows a misunderstanding of where the original fans came from. In 1999, Generation X (traditionally defined as the kids born from 1965 to 1979) ranged in age from 20 to 34 years old. I’m going to go on a limb and say that there weren’t a lot of mid-30 year olds moshing to Fred Durst and his “Nookie.” The next generation up on the other hand, Gen Y, was turning 11 and 19 and still had access to their parents’ generosity during a huge economic boom in the US. The lines of minivans waiting outside these concerts where parents waited to pick up their high schoolers were epic. <br /><br />Irritating as I find this generation fallacy, the argument that previous bands’ successes and “discretionary income” will propel these bands to tour stardom is most questionable. As you may have noticed, 2009 is not 2008. The ability of STP to earn impressive ticket sales in 2008 may or may not be indicative of their peers’ potential to do the same one year and one massive recession later. STP tickets went on sale when the recession was a whisper among economists and cable news. Spending was stable and unemployment growing, but slowly and predictably.<br /><br />Compare this to today’s economy that has shed over 600,000 jobs each month for the last three months, with no end in sight. Unemployment has hit 8.1% and the core audience (25-34 year olds) is even worse with unemployment at 8.7%. This time last year the figures were 4.8% and 4.9%, respectively. “Discretionary income” isn’t really a consideration for the unemployed. Even for those who still have an income have become less eager to spend it. Adjusted for inflation, February’s consumer spending was up down 0.2% from January. <br /><br />For those who don’t enjoy economic data as much as I do, put it this way: sh*t’s gone bad. The fear in the consumer is palpable in numbers and just walking past any given storefront. The “Going Out of Business Sale” and “75% Discount” signs are ubiquitous in Manhattan and around the country. “Retail Space for Lease” signs are also multiplying by the day as business clear out of their pricey Midtown locations. This is not a good time to try and sell anything, including $60 tickets to a band fans saw a decade ago. <br /><br />This recession is compared to the Great Depression and the big hit taken in the early 80’s (Jan ’80 – July ’80 and July ’81 – Nov ’82). For those of us who rocked “What’s My Age Again” on the way to cheerleading practice, this will (hopefully) be the defining recession of our lives. We’ve never seen anything like this and many remain cautious with their money in the face of an unfamiliar and dismal economy. Optimistic predictions put the end of this recession in fall of 2009, long after these tours have packed it in. No one can tell what spending will do in the meantime. <br /><br />I am skeptical that this will be the concert coup of the summer, but I also wonder if this isn’t exactly what the weary consumer needs: an escape from the never-ending bad news cycle and a retreat to simpler, happier, younger times when your main focus was having a fun and maybe getting home by curfew. If ever there was a need for good music and good times, this would be it. Even if the concerts are prohibitively expensive, radio play of these and other Nineties acts is up. And the airwaves are still free. Happy reminiscing! <br /><br /><em>by Jesy, who is inappropriately excited to geek out with economics while talking about music. </em>Planet Verge magazinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463330546088852noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36707318.post-89665186330394413922009-03-26T09:36:00.000-07:002009-03-26T09:37:03.944-07:00ON THE VERGE IS HERE!!<object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/44Z5I_VwGmI&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/44Z5I_VwGmI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object>Planet Verge magazinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463330546088852noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36707318.post-81355890030360804632009-03-24T18:23:00.000-07:002009-03-25T11:52:06.206-07:00A Bust on PA's Entertainment Boom so Soon?Yes, it’s true that our country is going through it's fair share of economic troubles and yes, it is our government's job to help make things right. However, some Pennsylvania lawmakers are stirring up controversy by wanting to remove the state's tax incentive program for filmmakers.<br /><br />There is a $75 million tax incentive that allows movie and television productions that spend around 60 percent of their budgets in the state to receive up to 25 percent back in tax credit. Although it could seem like a slightly indulgent way for the film industry to make a little something back for manufacturing their movies and TV shows here, lawmakers should step back and take a closer look at the bigger picture.<br /><br />With over 30 states holding similar incentives for the film industry, Pennsylvania has been standing comfortably within the top 5 states in attracting Hollywood business in an aggressively competitive field. With a steady stream of motion pictures pouring into the state, numerous businesses both locally owned and corporate have seen a constant increase in revenue, and will continue to do so as long as the product remains here. Some colleges have even begun offering new programs to train students for work in the film industry. With an abundant amount of crew and stagehands for the industry being hired straight from Pennsylvania, a dozen production sites and companies having been launched providing many job opportunities, as well as over $50 million in local spending, and some 25,000 hotel room nights in just one year in Southwestern Pennsylvania alone. These numbers are just the tip of the proverbial iceburg too, making it seem like the state's lawmakers are overlooking more than one positive outcome they’d be taking away from the area and the people involved in the industry.<br /><br />Not only that, but cast and crew members usually live in the area where they are filming for the duration of the time, so they not only need basic necessities like groceries and clothing, but night outings, rental vehicles and haircuts are usually on their list as well. So, without the tax incentives all of this business would go somewhere else. <br /><br />With a number of people who work in or around the industry writing to local newspapers complaining, and union members asking friends on the net to support the film industry and send their concerns about the revoke straight to the responsible lawmakers offices, it would seem that the majority rule is giving the idea two big fat thumbs down!<br /><br /><br />*<em>by Candace who wishes she could remember where she put her bowl of jello!</em>Planet Verge magazinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463330546088852noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36707318.post-64651745821477592532009-03-21T18:33:00.000-07:002009-03-21T18:46:47.950-07:00On the Verge: Chris UnckWe filmed On the Verge w/ Chris Unck yesterday and it was a hoot! You may know Chris as a guitarist for Butch Walker's band. However, he also has his own musical project and I can't seem to stop playing the songs. "Ruby..." is a favorite and you can hear it now at <a href="http://www.myspace.com/chrisunck">www.myspace.com/chrisunck</a>.
<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">I won't tell you any more about him. You'll have to watch our episode of On the Verge once it debuts!</span>
<br />
<br />Here's some photos of Butch & company at the Stone Pony last night. Nicole Atkins made a special appearance during the encore, which was a nice surprise. Also really cool, on the last song, opening act (& a fav of. Jessica's) The Films, came out on stage for one big jam. More tours should do this.

Though always a commanding front man, lead singer Mikel Jollett has shed the lovable geek he used to morph into between songs at previous NYC gigs. Gone is the adorable Garth-like “thank you very much” at every applause. The result is a more consistent stage presence, but this writer was a little sad to see that humble dimension of Jollett fall victim to the screaming fans. <br /><br />Musically, the band was ever dependable, drawing mostly from their self-titled album out in 2008. Perhaps greater commercial success means audiences already know the songs and want to sing along. Or maybe relentless touring limits the time ATE can dedicate to new material. Whatever the reason, all but a couple of songs are already available on iTunes, which is unlike my previous ATE shows that featured several unknown tunes. While the lack of new songs was somewhat disappointing, the set was solid and energetic, with appearances by the Calder Quartet in a makeshift string section and an overwhelming number of tambourines. <br /><br />After nearly an hour on stage, the band took their leave to recoup for the always predictable encore. This girl has already voiced her irritation at the requisite two song follow up, but drummer Daren Taylor did his best to bring back the tradition of earning your encore, leading the crowd, clapping the rest of the band onstage. Apparently the effort was more than sufficient, because about 20 people poured out to play some more. And throw tambourines. <br /><br />Pulling out some rare new material, Jollett kept the audience on pause before the band, quartet, and various others exploded into “Innocence” and a small dance party. Physically, the band simply could not have given more to these last two songs, and seemed to love every sweaty minute of it. Some of the audience got to know violinist Anna Bulbrook a little better during her short-lived stage dive, while the rest of us learned why you don’t see much crowd surfing at ATE shows. Taking off the rockstar cool veil, the members of ATE looked like kids on Christmas morning, closing the night with “Missy.”<br /><br />By the time it was through, the band’s enthusiasm had fully infected the audience, with this girl practically skipping out of the Bowery. No doubt The Airborne Toxic Event will be playing sold out shows in NYC for the foreseeable future and with good reason. <br /><br /><em>By: Jesy, who is more than a little upset that she did not catch one of the neon tambourines being hurled at the audience. </em><br /><br />Jollett, hard working front man.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqLH2C4fxHcRXYMJEPUTykocOsbCaKl_l2tQG31pQPuyOLmUAqf-GSgqF0i2w7m9lkZEXl_JZvkd247sDdb2y2l9NcIoX9fYQnD6ehY37LEnwRAq0oDkR7N9XtucTh2aTNeVTPjA/s1600-h/1+Jollett+Sweaty.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqLH2C4fxHcRXYMJEPUTykocOsbCaKl_l2tQG31pQPuyOLmUAqf-GSgqF0i2w7m9lkZEXl_JZvkd247sDdb2y2l9NcIoX9fYQnD6ehY37LEnwRAq0oDkR7N9XtucTh2aTNeVTPjA/s400/1+Jollett+Sweaty.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313600366503631922" /></a><br /><br />Steven Chen as contemplative guitarist... in red.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrEWJIkYjbSz2NODJ9q1s0RaTgV1DCkRe9RZeVAzQNFQVrc6OjtIAjEYwZ0lKeKqFQbY6QzWCBrGyaCT0C7lAscpnRUq9_Y3Dp6nKVJ_r2kdqlqJJbffNXZeJHbRdzApAzd_Lg5g/s1600-h/2+Chan-Red.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrEWJIkYjbSz2NODJ9q1s0RaTgV1DCkRe9RZeVAzQNFQVrc6OjtIAjEYwZ0lKeKqFQbY6QzWCBrGyaCT0C7lAscpnRUq9_Y3Dp6nKVJ_r2kdqlqJJbffNXZeJHbRdzApAzd_Lg5g/s400/2+Chan-Red.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313600762496052834" /></a><br /><br />Bassist Noah Harmon nails the prep school drop out look.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj62uS9kjv__KCPu3DqghaZSqpmWXwLKpzyMNp8puzsbWgMM9cvobEK-eBDLZASItBU-vYHA-TWc30ctRJ4pKwZAclPxMgKD6En42wmKt2euZu_bzfN5d3K87GndkWCFb4JsvTH2g/s1600-h/3+Bass+Awesome.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj62uS9kjv__KCPu3DqghaZSqpmWXwLKpzyMNp8puzsbWgMM9cvobEK-eBDLZASItBU-vYHA-TWc30ctRJ4pKwZAclPxMgKD6En42wmKt2euZu_bzfN5d3K87GndkWCFb4JsvTH2g/s400/3+Bass+Awesome.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313601556235046754" /></a><br /><br />Bulbrook caps the night with some brief but popular audience interaction.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqeet2WgMaAx3RoZwVkVW_rIVydMgUjRPUJsbrzlC_zbZJoai7ggpbhjHR4GJjtInQgy5m6RUdVNwwutsR70QOJKL6HAcI1QdWppwTjDDc5IUkYyhP1KKZnPR56a40NHqQC1VyRg/s1600-h/2+Everyone+Loves+a+Stage+Dive.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 279px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqeet2WgMaAx3RoZwVkVW_rIVydMgUjRPUJsbrzlC_zbZJoai7ggpbhjHR4GJjtInQgy5m6RUdVNwwutsR70QOJKL6HAcI1QdWppwTjDDc5IUkYyhP1KKZnPR56a40NHqQC1VyRg/s400/2+Everyone+Loves+a+Stage+Dive.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313601923715247538" /></a>Planet Verge magazinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463330546088852noreply@blogger.com40tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36707318.post-49714939027552912302009-03-15T09:22:00.000-07:002009-03-15T09:52:47.981-07:00Butch Walker to Rescue Indie Rock from American Apparel<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB-1tVSD69JcMVZj0K3bIrFlJCLpJv9uwAL_ItiBGjkxqzY-MRoo9BZej-7sX9My6_Uamu3YV01I-5BMQlgHAitfKvKwt28U_83H8JXbykL9Gi0VkgGjRrhfeaEOVL3YgHQ51-6g/s1600-h/bw1+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB-1tVSD69JcMVZj0K3bIrFlJCLpJv9uwAL_ItiBGjkxqzY-MRoo9BZej-7sX9My6_Uamu3YV01I-5BMQlgHAitfKvKwt28U_83H8JXbykL9Gi0VkgGjRrhfeaEOVL3YgHQ51-6g/s400/bw1+copy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313454698546171122" /></a><br /><br />Just as indie rockstar wanna-be's rip off Butch Walker's songwriting style (and fail miserably), they too often steal his style. <br /><br />Let's not forget it was Walker, in his Marvlous 3 days, who first wore the skinny tie. Of course, at this point, the wanna-be rockstar local band boys were still a little slow. It took a few years for them to dig this trend into the ground.<br /><br />Then it was the bandanna. I remember the first time I saw Butch perform solo, he had one of the red rags flowing from his pocket. About a year later, the emo kids once again have killed the bandanna (RIP.)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5_LXTAb8hbPzdgDRt4Lm-zBZ0Ku1BVeVxOh-_4dMyZA3JLKI_s09FpxyjtavxU63MZ20lHsoUgUbXNM8Ivhyphenhyphen4GPi3TvnHAqK3TnBfCPH0ySyRd4QEvu4JbZSBH1o90y0GC7j5Bg/s1600-h/bw2+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5_LXTAb8hbPzdgDRt4Lm-zBZ0Ku1BVeVxOh-_4dMyZA3JLKI_s09FpxyjtavxU63MZ20lHsoUgUbXNM8Ivhyphenhyphen4GPi3TvnHAqK3TnBfCPH0ySyRd4QEvu4JbZSBH1o90y0GC7j5Bg/s400/bw2+copy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313455076808645586" /></a><br /><br />Last night, at Webster Hall, Butch Walker And His Gang of Merry Musical Melodymakers took a stand against all the girl-pants-wearing boys, whether you realized it or not.

Even if the weather was of the summer kind, this duo certainly heated up the scene even more with their new and improved lyric, “I’m in OC, bitch.” Born and raised in Hollywood, this twosome makes a family act look more than happening, as they hit the music scene with their mix of hip hop beats and electro spins. LMFAO starts a party that seems to never stop as their crowd rocks to their beats like Flava Flav rocking to the tic tocs of his clock, but new and improved. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil77mDtsrW4QvMpaTSJs0xlz5XZOPLtckR_uUKcgsxUUaJ7Jn3ZtHrvlyNo1UPpaeBmaMR5lFv70v4Hufbur5iBUbH3QJ8AlmmTSPCXJtkeEFDwCiFt5eNg1wFoy_IKrVfrtwZmw/s1600-h/lmfao.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 227px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil77mDtsrW4QvMpaTSJs0xlz5XZOPLtckR_uUKcgsxUUaJ7Jn3ZtHrvlyNo1UPpaeBmaMR5lFv70v4Hufbur5iBUbH3QJ8AlmmTSPCXJtkeEFDwCiFt5eNg1wFoy_IKrVfrtwZmw/s400/lmfao.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309153075202394802" /></a><br />Although LMFAO seems to have come out of nowhere, this uncle-nephew pair has come a long way starting from the raw city of LA. With the influence of comedian, Eddie Murphy, on the performance aspect, Sky Blu and Red Foo have definitely learned a thing or two from performing individuals, as they know how to start a party. Performing everywhere from Hollywood’s New Years Eve 2009 Bash at the Paramount Studios Lot to MTV’s Spring Break in Cancun later this month, they continue to add a ton of performing experience, as well memorable stories to their list along with their committed fans’ lists, which include staying an hour after the show to take pictures and sign autographs. With their commitment to their music, party style attitudes, and fan base, LMFAO is full of unexpected surprises for their unique and distinct music. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrM5H9Z-6J8SWicnpxuaVHZcfew0DvMge3i2jG5Ze0hm_jpwEgO5Y75Fl5CaK_jkt5NijfeofVKUHSsEeRSLlspUHhZf-sZakvERpVhW4mVHUyBVBtrPOAeWJF8QpKGpYlNE6pSQ/s1600-h/n6014755_41503845_3954.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrM5H9Z-6J8SWicnpxuaVHZcfew0DvMge3i2jG5Ze0hm_jpwEgO5Y75Fl5CaK_jkt5NijfeofVKUHSsEeRSLlspUHhZf-sZakvERpVhW4mVHUyBVBtrPOAeWJF8QpKGpYlNE6pSQ/s400/n6014755_41503845_3954.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309119866868036962" /></a><br />What’s in store for the future of LMFAO? Time will only tell, but it seems like this performing act is good to go as their popularity is at an all time high as they have been ubiquitously present. Collaborations, an album, and a countless number of shows (which include their trip to the Winter Music Conference in Miami) are just a few things on their to-do list as LMFAO keeps the party going strong with support from Will.I.Am’s record label, Interscope Records. As this duo is keeping busy, make sure to keep up with LMFAO’s tour dates at www.myspace.com/lmfao to see if they hit up your town one day soon! And finally, in the words of LMFAO, “Keep partying!” <br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">**By Jackie, who wants to get a cruiser bike ASAP with this legit Newport Beach weather!</span>Planet Verge magazinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09076463330546088852noreply@blogger.com67tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36707318.post-42847871944398959832009-03-01T16:33:00.001-08:002009-03-01T17:04:30.722-08:00This is a "What's Up" UpdateLadies, gentleman, snails, bears, tigers, ligers, and all other living things... Here is an update from the cubicle of Amanda.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Current Tours You Should Pay Attention to</span>-<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">TASTE OF CHAOS!</span> (Grrrrrr, if I could put "Taste of Chaos in a brutal font, I would). This year TOC took it to the next level. One of the founders of modern day hardcore rock, Thursday, was named headliner with support from new school, death-defying British screamo act Bring Me The Horizon, along with Four Year Strong, Pierce the Veil, and Cancer Bats. All acts on this tour are incredibly strong and bring a certain fullness to the overall presence of the tour. Without a doubt, this is one of the most powerful years for Taste of Chaos and I think that if these bands tickle your musical fancy you should treat yourself to a night out.<br />www.tasteofchaos.com<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The Number 12 Looks Like You</span> is out on tour again with one of my favorite acts, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Our Last Night</span>. The Number 12 is a tremendous stage presence and makes a concert more than just a concert, it's a whole experience. Our Last Night has been nonstop touring for the past year and are currently working on a new album. I See Stars and We Come As Romans are also supporting on this tour. Check it out!<br />www.myspace.com/tntlly<br />www.myspace.com/ourlastnight<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Other News!</span><br /><br />Bamboozle is creeping up on us yet again! This year the line up is out of control...No Doubt! Fall Out Boy! Our Last Night! Innerpartysystem! Metro Station! All Time Low! Third Eye Blind! Jeezzz, don't miss out on this crazy mixed bag of music.<br /><br /><br />There's more to come from the cubicle of Amanda... So STAY TUNED!!<br /><br /><br />Ps- Stay warm New Jersey!
