AC/DC's Black Ice World Tour stormed into Oakland on Tuesday and had a rerun just last night. Christopher Victorio and his lens were front and center. What did we learn from his photo set? Well, apparently you're never too old for ripped sleeves and a schoolboy outfit. And the fans were almost as interesting to watch as the show itself.Click the image below for a full slideshow. --Janine Kahn

Oh Morrissey, so much to answer for.
The blogosphere was aflutter with outrage, indignation and, of course, profound lamentation as fans reacted to the news that Morrissey had canceled Saturday's show at Oakland's Paramount Theatre due to illness.
"That Miserable 'Liar' isn't getting any more money from me," declared one anonymous comm

Air Sex is a novel and intriguing concept. "It's like air guitar, but sex," the Austin-based creators of a national touring Air Sex competition like to say, and with that explanation come the mental pictures of people idiotically humping, sucking, and rubbing up on air. It's practically inevitable to think, hey, that's kind of genius. I should go to that.Don't.

Better Than: Being warm.The fog that began showing up in wisps over Dave Matthews Band on Saturday night turned into a typical freezing summer in San Francisco day by Sunday morning. The weather may have thwarted plans to show-off yesterday's tan, but it didn't prevent crowds from packing into the park for one more day of Outside Lands. Luckily, even non-San Franciscans k
It takes an iron will and a penchant for risk to submit to the risky calculus of the day-long music festival. In the weeks leading up to the Treasure Island Music Festival, there was no doubt that the lineup would yield something for just about any modern music fan from dreaded dubstep nodders to house bangers to junglists to those with a love of guitars and human voices and all points on the music appreciation spectrum in between. With a Saturday lineup that featured MGMT, Crown City Rockers, M
