Citypaper, September 3

"Do the voice!"

It's Live Arts/Fringe time, and in this week's issue I took a look at all of the shows in this year's fest that deal with social networking. I'm checking out quite a few shows in the next two weeks, and will try to blog them here.

Also this week, an interview with none other than Bobcat Goldthwait.

Metro, August

Just three stories this month: an interview with author Richie Unterberger about his exhaustively researched Day-By-Day account of the Velvet Underground; a piece on drummer/DJ duo Fraction Theory's debut at the Philly Folk Fest; and a peek inside the Art Museum's detailed exhibit tracing the history of Marcel Duchamp's final masterpiece, Etant donnes.

Aug. 6: The month kicked off with my cover story on drummer Justin Faulkner, already gigging with Branford Marsalis at the age of 18. The kid promises to be a monster, and is a good way towards getting there already. Also in this issue, a music pick on guitarists Ryan Meagher and Matt Davis, an arts pick on Winterthur's Faces of a New Nation exhibit, and a review of the Asperger's romance Adam.

Aug. 13: A review of the alien-apartheid actioner District 9.

Aug. 20: A review of Sophie Barthes' Being Paul Giamatti comedy Cold Souls, an arts pick for Woodmere Art Museum's Total Abstraction show, a music pick for Father Figures at Gojjo, and a Soundadvice blurb for Cuban-born drummer Francisco Mela.

Aug. 27: Nada.
