Culturally Relevant: Hating America
This Wednesday, my culture talk show on WUOG 90.5fm will be discussing the trend of hating America as an American. Do you hate the USA? Do you love it? Is the trend of being down about our lovely country getting you down? Get in touch with us through our site or by messaging me on Project Athens to share your opinion. If you’re in the Athens area, we would love to have you on the show.

Our first two episodes are up and available as podcasts on the site.

I Can See Your Tracks- Laura Veirs, July Flame
If you went to see The Decemberists perform at the Classic Center in September, then you probably saw Laura Veirs and the Hall of Flames open for them. I had never heard of her before then, but I became an instant fan. Most of what she played that night was from her new album July Flame, which was just released in January.
Folksy and calm, the album is a pleasure to listen to. Check her out on iTunes, or at her site: http://www.lauraveirs.com/. You can also get two free songs from the album there.
Georgia Museum of Art’s Family Day: Pop-up Valentines
Saturday, February 13, 2010, 10am-12pm at the Lyndon House Arts Center
Join the Georgia Museum of Art for a Valentine’s Day celebration. Use the works of art you see in the galleries to inspire your own pop-up Valentines. Heart-shaped treats will be provided. Co-sponsored by the Lyndon House Arts Center.
Family Days at the GMOA are always great events. If you have kids, or little brothers/sisters/cousins/whatever, you should definitely put Family Days on your calendar.
Wes Anderson's "The Amazing Spiderman"
This is a fan-made parody of what a Spiderman movie would be like if directed by Wes Anderson. If you have seen any Wes Anderson movies, then you will definitely get a laugh out of this.

I’m going to see Of Montreal Wednesday night. To say I am excited would be an extreme understatement. Here’s some acoustic Kevin Barnes to tide us all over until they play at the 40 Watt this week.
