Fifteen Favorite Animal Songs by Animal Bands

By Rachael Maddux on 7:00 AM on September 2, 2009

Today at 5 p.m. EST, I'll be popping into Etsy's incredibly cool Virtual Labs for an event called Shop Live. If you can snag one of the 150 spots in the room (registration is required, but so worth it) you can join me as I dish about Paste's picks for the very best animal-inspired goods on Etsy—mostly handmade stuff for ladies, guys and kids, but I'll throw in a few vintage picks, too. I'm so incredibly excited about the Etsy folks asking me to be a part of this, so I made of some of the best animal songs by... read more

By Julia Askenase on 12:10 PM on June 15, 2009

I'd been hyping up this show pretty much all damn Bonnaweekend, but it fully met my expectations.

I was a bit late to jump on the Bandwagon of Horses, having immersed myself in Everything... read more
