Review: The Best of Vol. 2 The Kids in the...
The Best of Vol. 2 The Kids in the Hall A&E TV Street: 07.31 Kids in the Hall was a popular comedy troupe in the mid-90s that brought Canadian humor to the states, relying heavily on satire, monologues and a liberal dosing of absurd situations. Like Vol. 1, Vol. 2 showcases the best of the

Live The Jesus Lizard MVD Visual Street: 06.05 There are shows that from start to finish are so incredible, they renew your jaded little heart about the impact and importance of live music. This live set feels like one of those moments. From the moment David Yow gets up on stage to the raw, cantankerous,
