Sexism & the City: Consciousness Razors - VERNE... →
sexismandthecity: 1. 1. _________ Go to a playground in a park and watch some children. Pick one boy and imagine the rest of his life. Make a list of all the things people will tell him he shouldn’t do because he’s a boy. Then pick a girl and think about how she’ll be spending her time from now on…. Not related to music, really, but I thought it was worth reblogging.

Texan musicians living in Nebraska and vice versa?
Dear followers, For my dayjob (NPR reporter), I’m thinking of doing a story about Texas musicians (of any gender) living in Nebraska and Nebraska musicians (of any gender) living in Texas (specifically Austin and nearby locales) for SXSW coverage. If you know of an individual who fits either category, please message me. Thanks, everyone!

ilivesweat: (Andy’s note: This may well be the first in a series of guest pieces on the topic of sexism and misogyny within punk and hardcore. Whether this is the start of a series or not, I think this piece stands very well on it’s own. Now read on.) (photo by Chris Grivet) I’ll start off by… “… you know what makes me feel unsafe?

mp3me: new video from Rural Alberta Advantage for “Stamp” // an accurate portrayal of being a girl at a concert The RAA is on Saddle Creek Records in Omaha. I saw them at SXSW last year and really enjoyed their performance, but even though they’re one of my friend Natasha’s favorite bands, I haven’t given them much of a listen since. I need to remedy that. And the video is...

I saw the Conduits Sunday night at a Hear Nebraska launch party, and I was blown away. Featuring former members of Neva Dinova and Eagle*Seagull, they make amazing music. I’ve asked them to come on the show, but they’re based in Omaha, so it could be hard to get all the members down to Lincoln on the middle of a Thursday … I’ll keep you guys posted. “(Conduits),...

Several hours of precarious coding later ....

lookuplookup: krsmailorderfreaks: Thao & Mirah - How Dare You “I think Mirah is the antagonist in this song.” - Thao Nguyen I am slowly growing more and more stoked for the Thao and Mirah album. Slowly. (Thao has never really clicked for me, but maybe soon?) I saw them perform here in Lincoln last year, and it was phenomenal: I haven’t listened to Mirah, Thao or Thao &...
