This second part to the LIFEEE Behind Bars Rap Battle also took place in a secret location. Personally, I love the mystery, it makes the experience all that much more exciting. Before the two remaining battles in this series took place we had several performances. I was stoked to see Ready Rah live, as I […]
One of the many badges a band as long in the tooth as Maryland’s Clutch carries around is an absolutely evident confidence. That confidence is probably best defined as “stage presence” or charisma – but it’s more than that. It’s “the thing” musicians crushing it night after night are paid to do. That “thing” – […]
It was great to be back at The Egg for the first time in over a year and a half, especially for an enjoyable reason (the last was for a memorial service for Greg Haymes). This time, it was for music, a huge part of Greg’s life. Andrew Heissler, aka Pokey LaFarge was making his […]

RRX: Many people take classical instrument lessons when they grow up, few pursue it, and you have. And not only have you beat the odds, you’re pretty much one of the people boosting the odds for others. How do you think you were able to beat the odds and wind up with a classical career? […]
This is a completely true story. I call it a tale of redemption. It is not meant to teach, preach or reach. It is simply a story of a long-time friend of mine. It began in 1974. I’m a freshman in college in Ohio studying Broadcasting. Among my new friends is a skinny, wise-ass punk […]
Nolan Cleary is the Editor-in-Chief for The Hudsonian at Hudson Valley Community College. He is interning at The Xperience. There’s a decent amount of pressure when it comes to running a newspaper. That pressure is extremely high when that newspaper has existed for 60 years. Part of the responsibility for me as an Editor-in-Chief is […]
