Postcards From...Dean Wareham

Grombleberries recently shared this fantastic piece on ex-Luna frontman and ex-ex-Galaxie 500 vocalist/guitarist Dean Wareham. Men's Vogue published an except from his forthcoming new book, Black Postcards: A Rock & Roll Romance, available March 13th via Penguin Press.

Dude paints a pretty honest picture of breaking his first wife's heart and coming to grips to losing the family life he'd grown to love. On the flipside, he fell for Britta Phillips a.k.a his other half in Dean & Britta and major indie rock babe.

Get Sassy!

If you were a teenage girl, coming of age in a modern world during those weird days we call the 1990s, then you were probably consulting the pages of Sassy magazine. For me, Sassy provided me with the real deal while Seventeen, YM, and 'Teen played it a little safe. Don't get me wrong, I loved all those magazines, but Sassy had the extra oomph of cool. From 1988 to 1994, Sassy's message was front and center: being who you are is cool enough! Raise your hand if you still own that beloved Kurt & Courtney issue from April 1992?

Sassy fans, unite! Marisa Meltzer and Kara Jesella know how much Sassy ruled, and have written a book about it. HOORAY! This April, How Sassy Changed My Life: A Love Letter to the Greatest Teen Magazine of All Time will be released via Faber and Faber. For more bad assness, check out their MySpace page!
