Halloween is around the corner, the Horde is back! Here is another edition of Albany's very own Zombie Walk. The highlight of the Zombie Film Feast 3 took place at the Armory last Saturday, October 23rd, and gathered a dense crowd of Undead on a slow march to The Linda. The whole weekend featured many returning events, such as the Brain Eating contest, the Thriller Dance Off, the Senior Prom and the screening of Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead ...

The Central Warehouse caught fire, October 22nd, 2010. It upsets me to see this landmark go down in flames. An eyesore for many, this concrete behemoth was the first abandoned building I explored with my own camera, back in March 2009. I brought back eerie pictures and a thirst for more.

Some say electronica, others live progressive breakbeat house, and Wikipedia files them under livetronica, a "jam band movement that blends such musical styles ... Continue Reading

Is Wolff's Oktoberfest stomping on LarkFEST? Matt Baumgartner's German love child turned one last Saturday and boy did he get much much bigger. The 2009 edition was a success but I guesstimated at least 3 times more people showed up this year to engulf a record-breaking amount of beer and sausage. Best of all, everybody seem pretty well behaved, I saw more obnoxious drunks the week before on Lark. Victim of its success, the event experienced a few issues to ... Continue Reading
