Anti-Flag at Mr. Smalls Concert Review
by Dylan Bahney The members of Anti-Flag raised their middle fingers high on the stage of Mr. Smalls Theatre. None of their arms trembles or shook as they flipped off not the audience members, but rather the oppressive government present in modern society. Lead singer Justin Sane shouted the words to the song “F*** … Continue reading

Felicia on Seth Glier’s The Next Right Thing
As an avid music listener and WPPJ music blogger, I pick up a lot of random CDs, and quite a lot of them sound alike. Decent acoustic guitar, and some guy singing/growling barely audible lyrics about the state of the world, his ex-girlfriend, and his beard. Enter this album.

Felicia on Maximum Balloon
This album, at first glance, seems a kind, simple album, ready to be listened to in the quiet of your dorm room on those rainy Pittsburgh evening when your roomate is out.
