from fathom's guide to surviving the apocalypse

well, it has been a fabulous week so far - on tuesday night i managed to make it to the front row for rancid & the transplants, which was actually one of the best nights of my life. i mean, i know that i tend to hyperbolize most sentiments when it comes to music, but seriously - rancid is one of my all-time favourite bands, and seeing them live from about 6 feet away was definitely life-time highlight material.

over the past week-ish, i've found some pretty interesting and inspiring things on the interweb.... check it out!
