F-U Awards Andrew W.K., Die Mannequin, The Flatliners, The Artist Life Sound Academy in Toronto, Ontario on February 5, 2009 Full Photo Set (20 photos) What does the "F-U" in the F-U Awards stand for? Strangely, that's not something that is clearly defined on their website. Perhaps it stands for "Forensic Unit"? Or maybe it is somehow related to "Franklin University" in Ohio? But the aw...
this post was inspired by spencer owen, i dont know if he brought up andrew WK as a joke or not, but regardless...when i first heard andrew WK i was amused yet not exactly moved to buy the CD... this was when party hard was the single. over the next few years i heard many interviews and became intrigued with this man and his philosophies on life and music. he struck me as a genuine person who h...
awhile back someone posted a mog about strange rumors that float around about random bands and musicians. i dont remember who it was, yes i know im a bad mogger for this, but i heard a great one (by great i mean absurd). someone told me that andrew WK shaved his head and beard, but he wears a wig and fake facial hair in order to look like Andrew WK for live shows and interviews. i dont really b...

--- - |- On this day, seven full years removed from the tragic events of nine eleven, it serves us all to think back and remember where we were. I was an undergrad who woke up late, stumbled into a dining hall, and has to ask a cafeteria lady "what city is that taking place in" whilst I pointed groggily at the television. New York was her answer, and it took me a moment to properly underst...
In honor of the new MOG, I thought I'd write a post about Andrew W.K., since I am in a gushing phase over his body of work. After writing a paragraph or so, I thought that I might as well check to see if I've done this before. Lo and behold, 17 months ago, I wrote almost the exact same post I was just about to embark upon. My final sentence: "Perhaps, Mr. W.K., I've misjudged you all this time...
For a long time, I thought I hated Andrew W.K. Detested, even. He performed for free at my school a couple years ago and I had vehemently made up my mind not to attend. I hated his horrible, annoying "party" message and his stupid-ass persona. Then I saw him live at USC, opening, curiously enough, for They Might Be Giants. This was ths seed of my changing opinion. He tore the place up, and ever...
