A class action lawsuit has been brought to correct the following grievance:

To be entitled to a payment under the settlement, you must file a completed Claim Form on or before September 24, 2012 on this website. You are limited to one iTunes Store credit.

Today's Occupy Pittsburgh Rally →

The rally kicked off with a skit with an actor wearing a top hat emblazoned with “1%.” The man held a rope and at the other end stood a dozen or so other people holding balloons labeled “manufacturing,” “healthcare” and “investments,” among other things.
The man with the hat bellowed “I need money,” and another actor, wearing a sinister looking mask, scurried over to mass of people, one-by-one cutting the balloon strings with scissors.
The skit ended with a game of tug-of-war, in which others joined in fighting the man in the hat.

Onion A.V. Club Interviews Ryan Adams
- AVC: Do you think you’ll be putting out as many records this decade as you did in the last decade?
- Ryan Adams: [Long pause.] Yeah, probably. I don’t see why not. I mean, if I’m inspired to. If the songs are there; if the songs come. But I’m not gonna not do it because somebody on fucking blowhard.net thinks it’s a bad idea.
