Dave Matthews Band, I’m over you
There are a few things in life I will never understand. Why buttered toast always lands butter side down, the Kardashians, Donald Trump’s hair and why Dave Matthews band is so popular. That last one is truly a head scratcher for me. Despite the fact that all of his songs sound the same, each with […]

HauteThought got a makeover!
Seeing that it’s a brand new year, and I’ve had the same layout since 2009 (call me a creature of habit), I decided that it was time to be a bit more colorful. Please enjoy this random hodgepodge of my dad’s records, 2 shoes and a bracelet of mine. Yes, we still have a copy […]

The signs are everywhere. You know that looming project you attack head on for a few weeks, and suddenly you just…fall off the face of the Earth? Progress stops, and the guilt begins almost immediately. That’s exactly what has happened here. My last song of the day was in August. I’ve been motivated. I’ve had […]

Lollapalooza 2011 Recap
Better late than never, right? This past weekend marked a moment in history. I, a song hoarder/concert lover/music blogger, finally experienced my first Lollapalooza. I know, I’m on the fast track to fame. First, this post. Next, a music publicist position followed by a million dollar book deal. Slight exaggeration. All joking aside, being able […]

Check out the allstar mistake published on the FOX News website. It has since been fixed, but apparently FOX spells Liverpool, M-a-n-c-h-e-s-t-e-r.

“Saw 3D” Review
By: Tyler Deardorff Another Halloween, another SAW movie. It’s a tradition now. Ok, I’m going to be honest and get this out of the way: for some weird reason, I like the SAW movies. Yes, the acting may suck and it may be pretty disgusting but under all of that are pretty good morals. […]

The 5 best shows on TV
By: Tyler Deardorff 5. The Walking Dead (AMC) Ok, I’m cheating on this one since it just premiered but you can’t get more original than having a show about zombies. It looks like they had actual fear and emotion in this show. Can’t wait to watch it. A guy wakes up in a hospital and […]
