So now that Vanaprasta have gotten that pesky business of an album release and an album release show out of the way for their full length debut, Healthy Geometry (proof that both actually occurred courtesy of 98.7 FM), tonight they set up house for a month of free music Mondays at the Satellite in Silverlake. Plan your attendance accordingly as they’ve seen fit to […]

While I write this, I’m eating string cheese (bet you thought I was going to say olives). Why string cheese? Because it’s tasty, as well as nutritious, and we women need our calcium.
