Mick Jagger is an icon. A personal idol. A man that refuses to wear anything but jeans and a t-shirt to the office and often refuses to wear anything at all. There are countless reasons why any boy growing up wanted to be Mick Jagger, and we're not just talking about the purported four THOUSAND women he has slept with ... continue reading
There are a lot of things worth knowing about beer other than what bottles require an opener, how to consume the largest quantity possible and the intricacies of the beer pong rules. You don't need to know about the relationship of hops to barley that's used to create the world's third most popular drink (it's fun ... continue reading
For a no-frills flask that's perfect to toss in your bag when you're out camping or exploring, turn to Stanley. The classic brand has been crafting solid, well-made food and drink gear since 1913. Their latest flask is the first in the Adventure Series which is aimed at being both essential and rugged. With more grip ... continue reading
October 15, 2006 marked the end of an era in the music world. When Patti Smith finished her concert that evening, it was the conclusion of over three decades of live performances at CBGB. But you can't really kill the mentality that CBGB was built on (even though it was originally named for Country, BlueGrass and Blues) ... continue reading
Zombies (the ones that walk real slow and don’t actually eat people’s faces off) are going to be a part of popular culture forever. We’re going to hazard a guess that you were a fan since before Romero started making movies, but it’s hard not to broach the subject of The Walking Dead when you start talking ... continue reading
Buying food from a random truck on the street should probably rank lower than eating at Taco Bell on the scale of food quality, but there are so many people running meals on wheels that would rake in Michelin stars like Mario that we don’t even care. This cookbook is the best of the best in the world of food trucks ... continue reading
It's getting harder and harder for us to justify purchasing DVDs and Blu-rays. With Netflix and the internet in general, we're headed towards a time when owning movies and music is a thing of the past. Of course, we do stumble across things like this every once in a while, and quickly realize there are times when we ... continue reading
We've all heard the big names in hip hop. In fact, we're pretty certain each and every one of you can recite lyrics (maybe not perfectly) from at least one hip hop song. This list doesn't really have any of those songs. Maybe you've heard some of these artists, and maybe you haven't. Either way, you're going to find ... continue reading
Thanks to Bill Murray, we actually have a favorite minor league baseball team. The actor recently ran and slid all over the tarp during a rain delay at a Charleston RiverDogs baseball game. It not only made us care about watching a Single-A ball game, but it was yet another example of why Bill Murray is the coolest ... continue reading
Cancer sucks, beards don't. We think that would be a good tagline for the latest book from photographer Justin James Muir. A Book of Beards contains 86 shots of the most awesomely gritty portraits of dudes with some length on their whiskers. It's a tribute to those who fought through the phases of itchiness to achieve ... continue reading
Girls in bikinis. Dudes in Bubble Boy getups. Music. More music. Three sweaty days of camping and a distinct lack of personal hygiene. Bonnaroo is about all of these things and, well, more music. The lineup includes at least fifty different artists (that’s where we lost count) ranging from Radiohead to The Beach ... continue reading
Until 1992, there was an archaic law in New York that prevented women, but not men, from being topless in public. Frankly, we find that offensive. In 1992, New York State struck that law down and with it, tops everywhere. Confetti fell from the heavens, champagne bottles exploded and men everywhere rejoiced for the ... continue reading
At this point in time, the only thing on your mind is 5:00. The three day weekend is almost upon us and we can't wait to fire up the grill and crack open one of those new Bourbon County Coffee Stouts or, well, anything else on this list. The only thing that goes with properly cooked meats as well as quality beer and ... continue reading
Bicycles are relatively simple machines. They might only consist of two wheels, two pedals, gears, a seat and a set of handlebars, but when they break down mid ride you might still be left scratching your head about what went wrong. Rather than trying to deal with 3g service (or lack thereof) for Google, or the technical ... continue reading
Bikes will never not be cool. (Unless it's a recumbent bike because those aren't cool.) It doesn't matter if you use yours for transportation or just to exercise, it's cool. Picking between fixies, hybrids and BMX bikes is like trying to figure out which kid you love the most because they're all cool in their own right. ... continue reading
Chef Adam Perry Lang is the barbecue equivalent of Enzo Ferrari. When Lang sits down and takes the time to teach you how to be a better grillmaster you can be damn sure that the techniques will result in plenty of people kissing the cook. From techniques like "scruffing" (roughing up meats and veggies) to "clinching" ... continue reading
