Summer 2009 Must-See Music Tours

outdoor_concert1

Ah, summer. It’s so close I can taste it.

And hear it?

Days on the beach, drinks on patios, and BBQs with friends. And music, lots of music. One of the very best things about summer is going to outdoor concerts.  And there are so many amazing tours this summer, I have a feeling I’m going to be at a concert pretty much every single week. And concerts mean music, beer, and friends. Which is pretty much heaven for me. Here are some of the biggest and best summer tours you should keep your eye (and ear) on. Read More »

It’s Almost My 21st Birthday, Now What?

lauren_conrad.jpgIt seems like just yesterday that I was anxiously twirling around in pink tights and a princess crown through some dirty frat house with my best friend Fiona dancing to “Everybody Dance Now,” eating chocolate mousse cake, and throwing my Steve Maddens at the boy who I didn’t know at the time would soon become my boyfriend, all in the name of my 20th birthday.

And now, a year has nearly passed, and I am about to turn the big 2-1. It is the day I can not only legally buy alcohol, but the day that all college students look forward to as their last passage into adulthood on campus (at least before senior year). It is the day that I can no longer get sent to student conduct council for underage drinking. The day I can walk up to the bar and order a mojito, legally. I no longer will have to worry about being carded when trying to order a drink somewhere. The day that I turn into a real adult – whatever that means – as decided by the world.

But really, how do I spend this occasion?

In my dream world, I would hire Girl Talk to do live mash-ups of Elton John, Britney Spears, and Guns N Roses while I dance alongside my best friends in dresses that aren’t just from H&M and Forever 21 in some sparkly New York City bar where we throw back pink cocktails in between cupcakes. But I don’t live in a dream world. In fact, I live in Roanoke, Virginia – which is as far from my dream world as I can get for my birthday, especially since there isn’t even a Forever21 of H&M for 60+ miles.

Although the reality of my 21st birthday may not sparkle in a New York City kinda way (however, my nails probably will in a cheap-nailpolish-glittery-concoction type of way), I am not going to let that stop me from having one of the best nights of my college experience. The question of how to do it, though – and not just do it, but do it well – plagues me. Read More »

Let’s Kick It Old School: A Playlist to Remind Us of the “Better Days”

039_6047cher-posters.jpgThese days, the radio is a serious disappointment. I long for the days when the number one hit was Mariah Carey singing Vision Of Love (I’m sorry but that sh*t was QUALITY). When I listen to say…something like, “This Is Why I’m Hot”, I find myself feeling so incredibly–unhot. Instead, I feel ashamed for listening to junk. Listening to most of the todays Top 40 tunes is like eating a Big Mac.

So, I’m going to bring you MY version of the good stuff, old school style, spanning several decades. Holla!

1. She’s Got A Way and Piano Man- Billy Joel

Ok, if you really want to go there….just buy a Greatest Hits album, so worth it.

2. Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves- Cher

Yeah, Cher. And no, I’m not a gay man.

3. I Have Nothing- Whitney Houston

Whitney would MURDER any of those American Idol b*tches. Read More »

The Forbes Celebrity 100

Johnny-DeppRemember senior superlatives? Ya know, who was best dressed, most outgoing, best looking, etc? Everyone wanted to be voted one of the top people in their class. (Yea, I got voted the Miss Congeniatlity of my sorority — What? I’m not afraid to give myself a little pat on the back.)

Well, ladies, the list that ALL of the Hollywood elite want to be on just hit the web today: The Forbes Celebrity 100. Unlike most celeb compilations, this one has nothing to do with hottness or ugliness for that matter. You have to be not only rich, but really powerful to be on this guy. Seriously, it’s the ultimate ‘A’ list.

I wasn’t surprised to see Oprah at #1. She is the shit and she makes a buttload of cash. But what I found hilarious and awesome was the fact that all of Hollywoods bad girls (i.e. Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears) didn’t make the cut. Sorry girls, I guess you aren’t as powerful as you thought.
