As Americans say goodbye to 2008, Clean Slate Riesling considers those celebrities and national figures who most need — and perhaps, deserve — to begin 2009 with a clean slate.

Tracks are not long and the message that Against All Authority provides is crystal clear. When the band goes into the…

Road Tour must be seen to be believed.  REPO! has inspired a community, and that community shows up in force on the road tour to bond, sing, and show off their fan-made REPO! costumes and props.  I imagine this is what being there on the ground floor of The Rocky Horror Picture Show experience 33 years ago must have been like.”  Stated Terrance Zdunich Actor/Co…
