On Halloween, MCR announced a reunion show, which will be held on Dec. 20 in Los Angeles’ Shrine Expo Hall. Their tickets went on sale Nov. 1 but sold out in three minutes.

This year the theme of the Fashion N Motion annual fashion show was the ‘Seven Deadly Sins.’

I have been a fan of all sorts of music in my life, and I have been lucky enough to have worked in multiple positions now where I am able to listen to music being performed live in front of an audience.

It seems that every place that sells coffee: Einstein's Bro’s Bagels, Dunkin' Donuts, even 7-Eleven, has attempted a pumpkin flavored coffee. No one does it better than the OG, Starbucks.

According to Jon Wolfe, George Strait and Garth Brooks were people he looked up to as a child.

As the first mainstage production piece of the year, “The Wolves,” directed by Rick Jones, made its debut Oct. 1-Oct. 5 in the Turner Auditorium at SFA. I attended the Oct. 4 show, and I would definitely say it is a show of a different kind.

When I first read what Disenchantment was about, I was expecting to hate it. Created by Matt Groening, who can also be credited with, “The Simpsons” and “Futurama,” the series follows Bean, a princess who “dares to be different” (while also being drunk like, always.) Other characters in the series are her friends: Elfo, a naïve elf and Luci, her personal demon who is supposed to be corrupting her. The first part of season one consisted of 10 episodes and premiered Aug. 17, 2018, with the second part premiering on Sep.20, 2019, and consisting of 10 episodes. 

Zach Galifianakis is back at it again with another take of his hit parody celebrity interview show, “Between Two Ferns,” only this time he’s taking it directly to your living room. Partnering with Netflix, “Between Two Ferns: The Movie,” has been a much-anticipated film from fans and viewers of the popular web series. With its release on September 20, the reviews all over the internet have begun to pour in. After viewing it myself, I found that the movie falls flat to the web series that has preceded it. 

After three years of waiting, Sept. 27 finally arrived. Whiskey Myers released their fourth album, which was untitled. Anticipation for this release began in June of this year when they released the single, “Die Rockin.’” This song was featured on the album. Whiskey Myers is known for their southern rock sound, and they continue to follow through.

Recognized by many and followed by many more, the Twitter handle “@SFAQuestions” is very popular among students around campus. But, at the end of last May, the previous owner Yajaira Romero handed the account over to an undisclosed student. It was suspected to be a male but never confirmed.

If anyone had said to me at the beginning of 2019, “Hey, name the three female pop stars you think are most likely to release a song together this year,” I probably wouldn’t have said Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus and Lana Del Rey. Nonetheless, when I heard the three singers were releasing a song called “Don’t Call Me Angel” for the upcoming 2019 remake of Charlie’s Angels, I was extremely excited because I am a huge fan of Grande. Cyrus’s music is usually fun. While I’m not super familiar with Del Rey’s music, I’ve heard good things and was intrigued to see what she would bring to the song.

After the debut of the trailer for the new DC character study of the villain Joker, starring Joaquin Phoenix as the villainous clown, excitement and criticism came out of the woodwork. The concern of fans is being expressed due to DC’s track record on movies that have historically paled in comparison to other superhero franchises.

I went in to “It: Chapter 2” with high hopes and low expectations. After experiencing the first part in theatres two years ago, I had my doubts that the sequel would be able to come close. “It” (2017) was not only the first horror movie I saw in theatres but it also was the first movie I ever paid to see more than once in theatres. The bar was set immeasurably high before the previews even started.

Marvel Studios, in partnership with Sony, did it again this summer by releasing another successful blockbuster, "Spider-Man: Far From Home." The film’s initial release date was set for July 5 but was released early on July 2. Starring Tom Holland as the titular hero, Far From Home is the 23^rdinstallment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and is the sequel to "Avengers: Endgame." To date, the MCU has released three films this year, including "Captain Marvel" in March and "Avengers: Endgame" in April. This is also the final film in the MCU’s “phase three” slate of films which kicked off with "Captain America: Civil War" in 2016. 

Going into this album, I had no expectations. I wasn’t really a fan of Lana Del Rey, nor did I really get the hype around her, especially on her song Summertime Sadness. Although I don’t really know Rey’s music, I do realize that she doesn’t just create music; she creates an essence. She sometimes creates aesthetically pleasing art. Although I think some of her music is pretty and nice, I genuinely think her music is for those with an acquired taste.

Like everyone else in the world that is a fan of the band Tool, I was eagerly waiting for Aug. 30 to arrive. This would be the release of their highly anticipated album, “Fear Inoculum.” After an astounding 13 year absence, Tool was finally about to come out with a new record. I was more than excited to listen to it. I got my first taste of the album when Tool released the title track, “Fear Inoculum” a couple weeks before the album. Overall, I enjoyed the track. The song reminded me of the older Tool songs, which I really enjoyed. I was a bit disappointed that they decided to drag the song out to 10 minutes, but I didn't think much of it at the time.  

This is the real Swift.

It’s something new that has a spin on a very old-school idea which makes it really cool and fun place to go and grab a bite to eat.

I was lucky enough to see “Avengers: Endgame” on the night of its official release with my friend who, like me, has been anticipating this movie since we left the theater after “Infinity War.” But with rumors, speculation and spoilers floating around for months before the premiere, we were scared.

With summer approaching in nearly two weeks, many college students are deciding to stay in Nac to take summer classes or because they have an apartment. Although some might believe otherwise, there are many fun things to do in Nac for the summer. These may not take up the entire summer, but they do kill a day or two on the weekend.

The Maine is an American rock band from Arizona that formed in 2007. They currently have seven albums, and their latest release titled “You Are Ok” was released on March 29. The band announced the album back in January and has released three singles before the album release.

Every day we wear little things that remind us of the people we love or who we are. I noticed the editors of The Pine Log wear the same accessories daily and always wondered what they mean to them.

“Special” is an eight- episode Netflix original that follows Ryan Hayes, a gay man with mild cerebral palsy played by Ryan O’Connell. The show is based off of O’Connell’s memoir “I’m Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves,” which closely reflects his life. With each episode only being about 15 minutes long, it’s a fun and easy watch.

We are only getting closer and closer to “Avengers: Endgame” day by day, and with that, new theories are being thrown out as much as fans are getting excited about the new film. Before I go ahead and add my speculation as to what is going to happen in the new film, I should start by going over what happened in “Avengers: Infinity War.”

The second season of “On My Block” came out Friday after leaving off on a big cliffhanger in the last episode of season one.

I started my spring break by doing nothing but working while others were vacationing, so I needed something to do. Netflix gave the answer full-screen and center with a new original series.

A little bit of creativity and wire has turned into a successful side business for one SFA student who decided to design and create gold- plated earrings.
