This Weekend: They're All Going To Laugh at You
If you’re not going to the Long Beach Grand Prix (fun!) or the Grilled Cheese Invitational (yum!) this weekend, maybe a pole dancing demo, mixology class or a comedy show where your iPod is the joke will tickle your fancy. Friday, April 18 SusieCakes Celebrates National Animal Crackers Day Remember animal crackers? I used to…
No Radiohead Tickets for Me
Gripe #1: I hate scalpers and their newfangled ticket-hogging technology! Gripe #2: I know Radiohead loves the intimate setting of the Bowl but come on, guys! You have A LOT of fans! Try a bigger venue, or how about THREE nights? Or four nights! THAT would be awesome. Gripe #3: Effin scalpers! Gripe #4: Web…
This Weekend: Here's to the Good Life
Lots of fun stuff this weekend! The Brewery Art Walk, free cocktails and know-how by a Doheny barman, and grooving on the steps of City Hall. Oh, and yet another huge-ass sale. I guess I know where my bonus check is going. Friday, April 4 Bar Keeper’s 2nd Anniversary Party The Silver Lake vintage bar…
Press Releases That Caroline on Crack Forgot
So I’ve been fortunate that publicists have actually put me on their “media” list so that I get a heads-up about upcoming events/products/venues they’re promoting. For the ones that sound rilly cool to me, I’ll excitedly write a post about ’em. Surrrre! But for the rest, they usually sit in my email box….until now. I…
This Weekend: All I Want To Do Is Dance
Such a weird weekend: Bollywood dance lessons, the end-of-an-institution party, and a zombies meet-and-greet. Friday, March 28 Last Chance for LF’s Only Sale of the Season On a normal day, I’d steer clear of this store. Too expensive for me. But when it has a sale going on, I’m so there. Only a few more…
This Weekend: Bring Da Noise and Da Pillow

Friday, March 21 Switches with Castaneda at Original Penguin Store Three hours of free vodka drinks, discounted retro sportswear and the undiscovered band of the month, Los Feliz’s own Castaneda. Sounds like THE thing…
Hollywood Bowl's 2008 Summer Season Is in Effect
Yay! The Bowl is back. Well, almost. The Hollywood Bowl 2008 Summer Season was just announced so you can check the site for who’s going to be performing at the KCRW World Festival concerts (cuz I know those are MY faves) and either subscribe to the series, Mr. & Ms. Moneybags!, or purchase tickets a…
This Weekend: Pinch Me, I'm Not Irish
The idea of wedging myself into a pub with 200 drunken revelers doesn’t appeal to me but at all. On Monday, I’ll probably just toast a tumbler of Jameson to you from the safety of my living room. And this weekend of events is pretty Irish pub-free. Friday, March 14 Pasadena ARTRide Get some culture…
