<title>SxSW 2011: Day One Down</title>
<description><![CDATA[Let's just call them the dirty dozen... the first 12 bands I saw at  this year's South by Southwest, that is. The first day, as always, was a  study in controlled chaos, with badge acquisitions, cell phone service  checks (Hey Verizon, if the incredible iPhone service keeps up, I might  name a child after you) and meet-ups to check in to.
&#160;
And then there's the inevitable <b>Brooklyn Vegan</b> showcase to see. Naturally, I gravitated towards the dark indoor stage where a string of &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/blog/ztsarfin/7018">More</a>]]></description>

<title>CMJ '10: True Till Def</title>
<description><![CDATA[Though showcases for this year's CMJ are still being announced, there's only one event we've got a laser focus on: TRUE TILL DEF, a free concert thrown by Converse, Tee Pee Records and Chronic Youth on October 20 at NYC's Mercury Lounge that celebrates the return of one of biggest hardcore acts of the '90s, Strife.

What makes the reunion of these former straight-edge advocates that much more subversive is who they're playing with: stoner instrumentalists Earthless, Priestess, Doobie &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/blog/ztsarfin/6728">More</a>]]></description>

<title>My 10 Favorite ATP New York Memories</title>
<description><![CDATA[While I begin to wrap my brain around my first ATP New York experience enough to write about it in-depth, here's a quickie about the memories that stand out the most.
&#160;
1. The ubiquity of <b>Jim Jarmusch</b>. He was everywhere: on line checking  in,  at the food court, chilling by the lake with his family.

&#160;
2.  <b>Helen Money</b> playing an electric cello&mdash;replete with effects  pedals&mdash;in  the hall lounge. The perfect thing to pass out to on one of  Kutsher's  many b &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/blog/ztsarfin/6677">More</a>]]></description>

<title>Shut Up And Listen To... Karma To Burn</title>
<description><![CDATA[Back in the day when instrumental-only bands were as rare as Republicans with a sense of humor, Morgantown, WV's <b>Karma to Burn</b> were tearing up stages and blowing through towns like a gang of rock n roll outlaws. And like all good (or bad) volatile creations, the band eventually went out in a blaze of glory, becoming the stuff of legend.

Then earlier this year, the trio made peace and decided to give it another go&mdash;headlining festivals all across Europe (where they're HUGE) &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/blog/ztsarfin/6064">More</a>]]></description>

<title>Municipal Waste Get Massively Aggressive</title>
<description><![CDATA[I've never had any ambition for fame&mdash;power and money, yes&mdash;but I'd happily take those two if it meant never having to be recognized in sweatpants at CVS in the middle of the night. Perhaps this is the reason I've been so hesitant to capitalize my journalistic skills on camera, as opposed to the happy anonymity I enjoy with a simple byline.
&#160;
Still, when a special band like Municipal Waste comes along, you just have to make an exception. So this past summer, I took a ride out &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/blog/ztsarfin/6044">More</a>]]></description>
