Uhhhhh.
​Not many things on my Facebook feed are capable of catching my attention (what's that? You're wearing purple socks today?), but seeing this photo pop up sure did: Two iconic punk legends reunited for this Instagram photo by Social Distortion manager Shane Trulin, taken during the Nov. 11 Washington, D.C. stop of Social D's current tour.

Say hello to Ian MacKaye and Mike Ness--two sides of the '80s punk rock spectrum (memorably) showcased in the 1984 documentary Another State of Mind.

Uh, hello girl of my fucking dreams.
​ Well, fuck you, Coachella. This past weekend, we had Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax all in one place, for one night and one night only. Best yet? No silly hipster hippie-resurgence fashions and way more hotter babes. After the jump: The uh, non-music highlights.

​Dusty Rhodes & the River Band gave what likely is one of their final performances at Saturday's OC Foodie Fest, and they brought the right amount of Skynyrd-inspired rocking to show why they'll be sorely missed. But don't despair too much: Out of the band's demise comes a sweet campaign poster for front man Dustin Apodaca's run for Anaheim city council. It features the Matterhorn.

After the jump: The full poster, and an explanation from Dusty.

​Dustin Beatty, editor-in-chief and creative director of LA-based Anthem Magazine, wears a lot of hats (I saw him rocking a few of them while interning for the magazine some three years ago). Besides throwing everyone's favorite annual Coachella pool party, he's also an amazing photographer with a knack for shooting over-exposed celebrities in a way that makes them feel fresh and new. Yesterday, Beatty debuted his website that showcases some of his best work. More >>

Let the motherfucker burn!
​Some time around 7:30 PM, the roof of the main stage caught on fire--no word yet on why and how, but here's a photo just as it was getting put out. Crisis averted!

EDIT, 9:32 P.M.: We're hearing via Twitter it was both on purpose and a mistake during Coheed and Cambria's set. We'll let you know for sure when we find out!

EDIT, 1:02 A.M.: Looks like it was an accident after all--a lighting instrument caused the roof to catch on fire. Solved!
