10-18: Pissing in the Wind?

10-18
This week!

A note from the editor:

Hello, everyone!

The launch of The Parochialist last week is only the beginning of my effort to provide an alternative to the Baltimore City Paper. I know there are people out there who feel the same as me--you pick up a paper every week, and not five minutes go by before you say “What the hell?” and get really angry at something in the editorial content of the City Paper. It has taken me years to get to the point where I just can’t take it anymore, and rather than make unproductive complaints, I am trying to do something about it. Even if that means a pissing-in-the-wind sort of effort that makes no difference to the juggernaut of the Baltimore City Paper, I believe it is important to undertake that effort.
I hope that this will become interactive: if you know of a good site or blog that people should know about that I should list here, let me know! Leave me a comment--I will approve anything that isn’t blatant spam. Band listings, events, anything!
Come! Let’s be less parochial together!
Thanks!

Davey G, founder of the Parochialist.
