Dave Grohl becomes “The Storyteller” with the release of his new book

Imagine that you are Dave Grohl.  Think of all the experiences that you’ve had in your lifetime.  The ones that everyone knows about (Nirvana, Foo Fighters).  The ones people may NOT know about (being a BBQ pitmaster, his time in the band Scream).

How do you tell these stories?  With a book, naturally.

What started as short stories on his first ever Instagram page prompted Dave to go deeper.  The end result is The Storyteller: Tales of Life & Musiccoming out on October 5th.  Here’s what it is all about in Dave’s words:

How Soon is Now? Riot Fest returns to form after a year away

No one had any idea that when they flocked for the exits after Bikini Kill’s 2019 Riot Fest set, that the festivities would be on pause until 2021. Fear not, Riot Fest returned to form with their first night of 2021 action.

There’s nothing quite as refreshing as returning to Douglas Park for Chicago’s marquee festival. The carnival rides, food vendors as far as the eye can see, and drunken haggards wildly missing their target at the dunk tank. Mind you, it was 4:00pm when I arrived.

Joyce Manor, the Torrence, California imports, were the first band I saw. They ripped through their nearly-flawless 2011 self-titled record, performing all 11 songs in just over 20 minutes. The band answers the question of “what if 1994 Weezer had a baby with 1994 Green Day?” Their hooks are infectious, their riffs are contagious, and their harmonies are flawless. They concluded their set with a rousing rendition of My Chemical Romance’s “Helena”, giving us a brief taste of what we’ll see next year when MCR finally takes their rightful place atop the headlining stage.

Nothing more accurately defines Riot Fest and why it’s so special than the stark contrast of Patti Smith and Alkaline Trio, both of whom followed Joyce Manor. Patti Smith thanked the sun for all that it does, while Alkaline Trio sank their teeth into an array of gothic anthems from their illustrious twenty-year career. It is up to the patrons over the next three days to top the wheelchair-stricken crowd surfer that rolled over the heads of the AK3 faithful.

Morrissey closed out the night, because for better or worse, there is no way to follow Morrissey. The eccentric frontman broke into the iconic Smiths tune “How Soon is Now?” to kickoff an unrelenting, energetic 70-minute set full of hits, covers, and deep cuts for everyone to enjoy. The grays in his hair do not define the 62-year-old. There is no denying that he still has some fight in him after his raucous closer, “Jack the Ripper”, which covered the park in a thickening smoke.

When it cleared, he was gone into the night.

-Case the Producer 

We look forward to partying with everyone at Riot Fest all weekend long! Keep in touch with us on social media on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram!

A man got back at a woman who tried to steal his car the best way possible

A man got back at a woman after he caught her red-handed trying to steal his Jeep. He recorded their interaction when she was doing it. See the video below.

Then she realized that she left her phone in his car and refused to let her back in to get it, so she left when he offered to call the cops. The owner of the car decided to take over her social media and change her name to “car thief.” Her job changed to ‘works at “stealing.”‘ The man then started posting text conversations with her with her conspirators about ‘How to steal a Honda.’ Her YouTube, TikTok and facebook immediately gained hundreds of followers. Since the man took over, more clues about stolen property, other crimes she’s committed, and information about a man’s murder has come out. Don’t leave your phone at a crime scene.

 

I Ate Here: La Luna

Hey I’m Jon Manley and I LOVE food almost as much as I love music.  I went to La Luna in Pilsen last night and was blown away.  The restaurant is super cool, with tons of outdoor seating as well as a cool hip vibe inside.  But the real start of the show were the birria tacos.  Check out my photos and recommendation below.

Quesabirria tacos.  BEST BIRRIA TACOS EVER.  Seriously, its like an Italian beef in taco form.  The pickled onions gave it a pop, the consomme was packed with beefy flavor, and the gooey cheese inside the taco set this thing off.  I will dream about these tacos.

Tacos!  We got fish, pork, and carne asada tacos and enjoyed them in that order.  I particularly liked the pork one, good heat to the meat.  Hehe.

Horchata!  I may have had to turn in my man card for a few minutes while enjoying this but I don’t care.  To me horchata > Mexican coke and is a staple of my meal whenever its offered.

We also got some chips and guacamole but we ate it before I had a chance to photo it.  They add pomegranate to theirs, which was a really nice surprise considering at first I tried picking them out.

 

Go here if:  You want elevated Mexican food prepared with serious care, but nothing too over the top.  And of course, if you like birria this place is officially a MUST.

Don’t go here if:  You’re looking for cheap tacos on a quick lunch break.

Pro Gamer celebrates a win and then pulls “a Justin”

Was anyone else told to not celebrate too hard? A pro gamer celebrated a win and then immediately dislocated his shoulder. Karma?

He pulled a Justin!!

 

KFC promises to bring vegan chicken to stores “soon”

This is massive. The succulent, fried goodness that is Kentucky Fried Chicken is working on an option that is acceptable for our vegan friends. The company rolled out vegan-friendly chicken in one location in Atlanta two years ago and the chicken sold out completely in under five hours. This could be the next Popeyes Chicken Sandwich craze if the chicken turns out to be tasty. The president of the company has promised to perfect meatless chicken before rolling it out not only across the nation, but internationally.

Perhaps there is no greater peace offering than KFC to the staunch vegan demographic…
