Building The Set For Last Night’s Woodie Awards
Tom Lenz’s set design for this year’s Woodie Awards was more ambitious than we’d ever attempted. And it turned out to be my favorite he’s ever done for us. The build was kinda intense. Once we are done cutting the show (it airs at 10pm December 4th on MTV, MTV2, mtvU and Palladia, we’ll really…

My office is either way too hot or way too cold. Patty’s always threatening to take a wrench to the climate control, once and for all. Until she does, I no longer fear the frigid. Thanks to Zeller, I now sport the Weezer Snuggie… Get yours here.

Matt & Kim Performance Will Kick Ass Next Wednesday
When we saw Matt & Kim open for Friendly Fires, and then they came and shredded our office to bits, we just had to make sure we locked the Brooklyn duo to perform at the Woodies next Wednesday at Roseland Ballroom. If you’ve never seen these two play live, you gotta. We’ve been working with…
