Join us as Mayer spills the beans on his music career, who he would want to collaborate with in the future, and his thoughts on his own style and ‘cool’ factor.

Fresh off Coachella and a European Tour, this drop is just in time to reacquaint the rest of you fresh kids before his …

OUTSIDE LANDS SF – MUST SEE, MUST DO, MUST GO (Video & MP3)

Outside Lands is this weekend in San Francisco and I know what you’re thinking, “where can I park without getting a ticket?” No, that’s not what your thinking? Well good because this very weekend, at San Francisco’s historic Golden Gate Park, is the Outside Lands festival. From legends, to oldies, to the very mod, this is a “must see, must do, must go” list set in no particular order.

FOOD FOOD FOOD FOOD FOOD and WINE

First thing’s first, Outside Lands is not only about the music. Granted, there is music but how many music festivals can you go to while sipping some nice California wines and munch on San Francisco’s gourmet food – it’s not just about the …

Where Am I Now: JTI

It’s been a while since JTI, Joey the (&$#!ing) Intern, has been mentioned in the URB blogs but guess who’s back? Well, back on the URB blog – I’m still on the island of Samoa fighting blood thirsty mosquitoes and wrestling the local pigs for dinner (pigs, not cops). Actually, life here isn’t bad but if there is anything I miss, it’s life back in LA: the music, the art, the parties, and of course, the girls!!!

Anyway, on the Peace Corps website, there is a feature that describes my life from living like a rockstar to a different life in a developing nation. Check it out here: From Lollapalooza to ‘Treasured Islands’
