I never wanted to be you weekend lover.

Listen - the new Japandroids album may be overly sentimental and twee to the point of cliche - but that's baked into the experience. While Fate & Alcohol may not reach the peaks of Celebration Rock (what could?), I find it to be a glorious coda to one my favorite bands. It's all heart, sweat and tears. The guitars swell, the drums thunder, and I couldn't help but feel moved. It's a glorious, messy end to a band I'll miss very much.

New music from The Hard Quartet, The Smile, and Eels makes this one of the best weekends of the year for kicking back on the patio and listening to some tasty tunes.

This is maybe the least inspiring, slow yawn of an iPhone event I can remember.

I'm so compelled by the choices Adam Sandler has been making lately in the films he's not only starring in, but also getting greenlit. I wrote about how I was almost giddy when hitting play on the trailer for the new film he is making for Netflix - Spaceman.

Adam Sandler keeps me guessing in the new trailer for Spaceman

There maybe no more confounding actor on the planet than Adam Sandler. You might say Nicholas Cage, but anytime he shows up in a new project I honestly know what the vibe of the film is going to be…

Watched The Holdovers last night and thought it was a wonderful film. Incredible performances by Giamatti, Sessa and Rudolph, captured beautifully by director Alexander Payne. You can catch it on Peacock, which you probably have for the next month because of football.

Snow Day

They say it was the storm of the century. Our little city got buried by over 15 inches of snow yesterday. My wife and I took turns shoveling the walks in the middle of a blizzard. We lost a few tre…
