Barry the Beaver
Barry the Beaver is exactly what he looks like: a collectible vinyl vibrator. It was only a matter of time before lowbrow art and the toy collecting scene crossed over into sex toys. And remember, if someone raises their eyebrows, just tell them that it’s art! Jeremy Fish has created the 5.25 inches Barry the Beaver, which starts buzzing with a turn of the tree stump base. It also features a handy bendy tail.

Shag Brooklyn (metaphorically speaking)
Williamsburg, Brooklyn, has plenty of music, art, gentrification, and hipsters, but it was missing one thing: a sex shop! I can’t wait to swing by the opening of Shag on November 20, for live music, art, and, yes, body painting! You just can’t beat sex in the city.

Wow awesome sculpture! Vinyl is NOT a preferred material for dildos and vibrators. For those looking use a sex toy and not just collect one choose silicone or glass artwork. (Latex too if you are not sensitive)

Valerio Carrubba is a hyperrealist painter. His images are anatomically accurate, showing his peaceful patients with their internal organs exposed. Shocking, realistic and, at the same time, extremely surreal, Valerio’s paintings are technically beautiful and provocative.

I’m really excited about the Melbourne band Plug-in City. They remind me of Belle & Sebastian, The Kooks and Cut Copy all in one. What more can us New Yorkers ask for?
Almanac Market in Philadelphia is slightly pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for. Offering fantastic bread, cheeses, produce, and cured meats such as sopressata and pepperoni, it was a great pit stop when my band played in town, and definitely more economical and tasty than hitting a greasy spoon for road snacks.

There’s some nice, doom-tinged psych rock coming out of Holtzclaw, Virginia in the form of Pontiak, a lumbering, feverish, blues-heavy trio that sounds like a hungover morning after a drunken party around a bonfire in the woods.
