The Drake Hotels
I’m sorry; I have an affliction that makes it impossible for me not create dumb bullshit like this when I see some kind of opportunity. I haven’t seen a doctor about it, but I think it’s called “existing in 2017.” And sorry I’ve been quiet for a while; I was finishing my PhD. A lot … Continue reading

Tyler’s 2016 in Music
Like the previous few years, 2016 was an amazing year musically. In my personal life, I realized how few shows I went to, but I’ll chalk that up to a combination of Knoxville not bringing too many acts I sprang at the chance to see, not having an easily available car to go to see … Continue reading
