Matthew Lillard of SLC Punk fame recently shepherded the outsider film Fat Kid Rules The World into existence and it’s a truly must-see flick for anyone with a hint of punk rock outcast in them.
Sarah talked to Lillard about the film and how Pearl Jam members contributed to it for Spinner.

Bob Marley
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
The biggest deal is the fact that it’s the anniversary of Bob Marley‘s death this weekend. That’s a bummer. But there’s also stories about a spider named after Neil Young and something about Pearl Jam.

Foxy Shazam
When Sarah spoke to Foxy Shazam recently the band was quite concerned about the state of rock stardom in the modern world.
In fact, they were so concerned about it they even suggested that the “rock star” as a type might be dead.
To that we say “Fie!” As long as dudes have moustaches like that, the rock star isn’t dead.
