'Don't call unless a Jumbo crashes'
On the afternoon of 21 December 1988, Heavy was preparing to be reunited with an old flame who was in the process of leaving her husband.
Not long after meeting her off a train, he took a call from his deputy.
Heavy said: “He told me I had to come in to work as a Jumbo jet had crashed.
“I thought it was a wind up and put the phone down. He was back on the phone in a second....
i totally would have bought the iphone simply for the i heart radio and mpr programs. everything else is icing on the cake.

There’s a movement afoot to rebrand our fair cities with a nickname so derivative and base that I can’t bring myself to type it more then once. It’s TWINCY. There, I did it.
It saddens me that my friend and collaborator Chuck Terhark is the one who brought this abomination into existence, and also that my friend Taylor Carik was so quick to support it. But if this...

GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba - Blaring from a speaker behind a metal grate in his tiny cell in Iraq, the blistering rock from Nine Inch Nails hit Prisoner No. 200343 like a sonic bludgeon.
“Stains like the blood on your teeth,” Trent Reznor snarled over distorted guitars. “Bite. Chew.”
The auditory assault went on for days, then weeks, then months...

It’s difficult for me to imagine anything more profoundly insulting, demeaning and enraging than discovering music you’ve put your heart and soul into creating has been used for purposes of torture. If there are any legal options that can be realistically taken they will be aggressively pursued, with any potential monetary gains donated to human rights charities. Thank GOD this country...
