Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway Pull a "Steve Harvey"
Anyone watching the Oscars last night had to feel deeply sorry for actors Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway. In what is sure to become one of the biggest Oscar fiascos in history, the wrong Best Picture winner was announced at the 89th Academy Awards ceremony on February 26. The legendary Beatty and Dunaway somehow acquired the "Actress in a Leading Role" envelope which Best Actress Emma Stone (La La Land) says she'd been hanging onto throughout their presentation.

Broken Record Part 1
As you know, album sales for the mainstream music industry peaked in 1995-1999. The decline since has been epic. This has been largely blamed on piracy and a transition to digital media, but is this decline more about a lack of consumer confidence? The music industry has set the bar in heavy-handed marketing, corporate oligarchies, and cheaping out every time they get the chance. Record companies are a caricature of overreaching big business. The public's perception of this industry was always poor; it could be considered sleazy at best. Now it’s completely isolated, soulless and outrightly despised across the board. Millennials are consumed by music and media yet at the same time not buying it. What’s different? One of the biggest barriers may be the lack of real choices.

You Could've Worn A Tie, Chris...
It’s been roughly 15 years since I decided that I was too good for the Brit Awards; but I’m firmly in the trenches of music retail now, so practicality and morbid curiosity sucked me back into the kaleidoscopic world of the British Phonographic Industry.

Don't Forget the Flamin' Groovies
The Flamin Groovies released their third album, Teenage Head, back in 1971 to much critical praise. However, because the group was known only tentatively in the Midwest and San Fransisco (where they originated about 1968), the record won little popularity and no airplay.
