Here Are Some People Who Got A Record Deal Because Of Vine
Vine, for the most part, is a great thing. How can an app that gifted us with the Nae Nae Panda and the Volleyball Stanky Leg be described as anything else? It's also a silly thing, though, because it made it possible for the folk-singing duo known as "Us" to get a record deal....

In Praise Of The Schlub Frontman: Future Islands And The Hold Steady
There is no greater cultural delight on this earth than the sight, and sound, of David Letterman actually enjoying one of his musical guests.

I Sang Two National Anthems At An NBA Game And Did Not Start A War
Canada ruins everything. At least, it does when it comes to event planning your standard regular-season NBA game.
