Anyone who’s ever wanted a Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle or worried about someone shooting their eye out with one can probably blame A Christmas Story. The movie follows the travails of poor sap Ralphie in his quest for the ultimate BB gun experience. The ArcLight Sherman Oaks is holding a 21+ screening tonight at 7:30 pm.

If you're tired of Zac Efron or Vanessa Hudgens (I don't know how but then again I haven't seen the first two), here is one more reason to go see this movie if you already haven't. Thanks to Willis' appearance on the Late Show, we get a chance to see this clip without having to pay for the ticket stub.

Procrastinating gift givers everywhere can stop at their local Best Buy to grab a CD from a plethora of music superstars and avoid the dreaded regifting faux pas. The holidays have always been a time when record labels ramp up their releases to make a pretty penny off of shoppers. Don’t know what to get your kid? Take your pick of shiny round plastic discs with a fancied up singer on the front. Of course they’ll love it!

The and wonder why James Taylor didn't become a famous actor.
The announcement that Tom Petty will play the halftime show at this year’s biggest football game got me thinking about those of the recent past. It seems like only yesterday that men across America froze their Tivo to catch a glimpse of Janet Jackson’s nipple ring during the Super Bowl XXXVIII performance. This notorious halftime show also featured Kid Rock wearing the American flag as a shirt and P. Diddy and Nelly flanked by scantily...
In the 80s, I kind of felt like I was living in the Twilight Zone. Particularly the episode where everyone thinks people with pig faces are beautiful. Back then, people were wearing asymmetrical everything, giant hair, giant shoulderpads, giant polkadots, and dayglo colors to complement the ultrathick, bushy eyebrows. My mother would try to force these horrible clothes on me in the dressing room, and it was as if they were burning my skin. Why were punkers the only ones who could see how ridiculous it was? I felt so grateful and validated when people finally started making fun of the 80s mainstream fashion and insipid new wave. Thank God they could finally see what I saw.
He's 80something and his self-titled cd is something that we've listened to almost every day since it was sent to us in April. Since Moz canceled perhaps that frees your schedule to take in another living legend: Charlie Louvin @ The Mint High School Musical on Ice @ Staples Bryan Adams, George Thorogood @ Gibson Black Label Society, Dope @ House of Blues Rolling Blackouts, Thunder in the Valley, Vampire Hands @ Alex's Bar...
I hesitantly went to the Dodger game against the Giants this past Friday. The only reason I went was because it was a fundraiser for my friend’s school. Thankfully the Dodgers won the game 8-3 which is a better result than the last several games I attended. But if you want me to remember anything about the game you’ve got me. Sadly the only memorable thing was seeing that High School Musical actorhomo being...
How good is Oreskaband, the all-girl teenage Japanese ska band? They're so good that after two weeks of non-stop rocking blogging and partying at SXSW in Austin (highlighted by our first exposure to Oreskaband at their show at the Elysium), and after a stressful flight home, instead of taking a break from rock shows we landed in LA, unpacked, and hit the Knitting Factory to see our favorite new discovery play again at Japan...
Living in Los Angeles, LAist likes to think that we’re hip and ahead of the game. We know struggling artists and people who play their fingers to the bone to get a gig here and there, let alone face time with a record executive or A&R guy. We see good music at small venues around town and giggle when the “red states” slowly catch on to indie bands that have been on our radar for months.
