		<title>Any Driven Sunday &#8211; The Chameleon Nature of The Xterra.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the longest time I&#8217;ve been a little confused about how I feel about the Nissan Xterra. Perhaps that&#8217;s because it seems to be a little confused on its own. The first generation of Nissan’s small truck based SUV was introduced in 2000 in the midst of Nissan’s darkest period. Suffering through a full on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Going Vegan in Texas&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tired of the red meat are you? What&#8217;s that, you say? You&#8217;ve never tried meat? Interesting. Perhaps you, like English crooner Morrissey believe that Meat is Murder (Aside from naming one of his albums from his days with the Smiths Meat is Murder, he has famously stormed off of stages mid-set upon simply smelling some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For years now, Centro-matic, a band that began in Denton well over a decade ago, has been known as a prolific group that has risen to a rather lofty status in the world of American Indie-rock.

		<title>The Lights at Night, Are Big &amp; Bright&#8230;In Marfa!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of weeks ago I mentioned how I really want to hit the Disc Golf course soon. It&#8217;s something I haven&#8217;t done before and Texas provides many an opportunity to do so. Well, here&#8217;s something else I want to do, but haven&#8217;t yet. Hit Marfa! The dry, West Texas town not too far from Big [...]]]></description>

		<title>Texas Concert Preview: Dead Rider Arrives!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Look: I know that we can get very wordy here and get all kinds of crazy with trying to label artists and detail exactly what nice, neat little corner of the musical universe a song or album might fit into.

		<title>Any Driven Sunday: GM Applies Itself&#8230;Finally</title>
		<description><![CDATA[  For most of my life I&#8217;ve been familiar with the phrase “His potential is unlimited, if he would only apply himself.” Such was said about me while I was napping in Geography class, staring out the window in Math class and daydreaming in Biology lab. I heard it so much that it became like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[  Ok, I told you that in order to introduce you to all of the bands on this year&#8217;s ACL Fest bill, I would have to cheat a bit here and there. So, here&#8217;s a bit of a cheat as I use this week&#8217;s video post to slip in an extra (and non-Texan) preview/intro&#8230; Elbow, [...]]]></description>

		<title>GET BUZZED WITH MISS TEXAS!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At the risk of sounding like a bit of a pig, it&#8217;s hardly a secret that our fine state is especially fine when it comes to the quality of our Lone Star ladies.
