David Fagin is a musician, he's written this great guest post. Enjoy!
An Unknown Rockstar- (A Scary “Horror-Blog” in time for Halloween)
I’ve been playing music “professionally” for just about twenty years now. I put the word “professionally” in quotes because, unlike most jobs –in which the transition from amateur to professional is defined as the point at which you actually begin to make money -as a musician, I believe you’re a professional the moment you decide to quit your job and move in with your girlfriend; because, money or no money, that’s the point you begin to work at it full-time.
If we’re going strictly on the “money” scale, then I guess you could say I turned professional about a month ago. See, over the years, even though I did countless things that made me appear “professional,” such as, appearing on the Howard Stern Show w/ Gene Simmons, playing shows w/ The Strokes, No Doubt, Duran Duran, Stone Temple Pilots, etc., appearing on Carson Daly five times, Dennis Miller three times, having my image digitally re-created for Playboy’s first video game, partnering w/ Napster, testifying on Capitol Hill alongside Alanis Morissette, (breath), speaking at Harvard, touring England, and getting my music featured on shows like Dawson’s Creek, Party of Five, Joan of Arcadia, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, The Real World, and the Today Show, believe it or not, I’ve barely broken even. Scary, right? My mom thinks so, but that’s not the scary part.
A few weeks ago I learned my song, Birds of a Feather, was selected as the theme to the new Jenna Elfman sitcom, Accidentally on Purpose, on CBS. It’s great money and I’m finally a professional! Now here comes the scary part. The theme song is only five seconds long! Horrifying, right? Eat a steady diet of Ramen Noodles for twenty years to get your music out there and when you finally do, it’s practically subliminal (Actually, we ate sushi but Cup o’ Soup sounds better). Am I telling you this because, as a Jew, I feel like whining about the fact that I’m getting paid good money each week for doing nothing? You betcha. But, that’s not the real reason. I’m telling you this because I’m trying to frighten those of you -the ones with the home studios whose friends tell you you’re good but who really think you’re incredibly mediocre –you who are thinking about quitting your job at Starbucks and moving in with your girlfriend and pursuing a career in music, into thinking again.
It’s taken me almost twenty-years of crappy clubs and crappier groupies to get a whopping five seconds to the masses, so, if I can scare just one of you wannabe’s into not taking up a slot in a club that could possibly be filled by a qualified, talented musician, I’d consider this time well spent. My only regret is that this didn’t reach Chad Kroeger in time.
Getting back to me, am I broke? Not anymore. Am I famous? Mmm, guess not. But, hey, at least you know who I am. And, whether you do it by accident or on purpose, don’t forget to watch the show! Boo!

Buzzfeed editor and vocalist/keyboardist for Brooklyn band The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Peggy Wang, waxed poetic with Asylum.com and shared her awesome drinking habits, what the beginnings of Buzzfeed was like and what it’s like going viral. She also offered this awesome tidbit on how Last Call host Carson Daly might be a dick:
“We performed on Late Night With Carson Daly ['Last Call'] awhile back, which was cool. We did not meet him. We didn’t even get an awkward post-performance handshake! We were standing in the hallway about to go on, and our drummer Kurt goes, ‘So do we get to meet Carson or what?’ And Carson walked past and was like, “No you don’t,” and kept walking. That was our one encounter with Carson. He kinda said
