	Saintly sounds Portland duo Talkdemonic calls its big sound "folktronic hop" by Thom Brekke Being in a band used to mean you shared a cramped backseat with a hairy, smelly, and/or drug-addicted group of people in the ramshackle van you all call home. Lucky for the introverts and germ-wary among us, this is no longer the case, thanks in large part to technological advances in recording and playback.

	Hello, my name is Lindsay, and I have an addiction to trivia In My Opinion \| Absolutely Fabulous by Lindsay Funston I am obsessed with trivia. This is by no means a novel revelation that I have come to, but one that has become increasingly prevalent in my day-to-day life.

	'Welcome to the Captain' is tired and unoriginal TV Review by Matt Sevits When a sitcom like "Welcome to the Captain" comes along boasting an all-star cast that includes Chris Klein, Jeffrey Tambor and Raquel Welch, one hopes it'll be funny. Unfortunately, not even B-list actors can wrench laughs out of the lackluster "Captain." The show revolves around dull screenwriter Josh (played by Fran Kranz) after he moves into a famous Los Angeles apartment building, El Capitan, which is full of purportedly zany residents.
	The Bayside boys The New York-based group plays a new kind of Long Island sound by Lindsay Funston In the midst of a month-long road trip touring through medium-sized cities throughout the country, the Bayside boys have been performing almost every night since late January. But the four New Yorkers keep trekking, just like the title of their latest album, "The Walking Wounded," suggests.
	Presidential race benefits from online videos Sites like YouTube are being used this year to promote candidates, not to derail their campaigns by Kevin Glenn \| Pulse Reporter Politics as of late have been dominated by online videos. The video of the "Dean Scream" tanked a presidential campaign, and the "macaca" video of George Allen destroyed a man's senate campaign and helped push the Senate into the Democrats' hands. But this year's presidential campaign has been affected by videos in a new way.
