Weed-smokin' pop-punks Wavves have a new video game out, Weed Demon, and, well, it's about dealing weed. Created with the help of Vice magazine and Mishka, a New York City street-wear company, the game is modeled on the 1984 arcade game Paperboy—only you deliver pot instead of newspapers. Play the game for free at vice. com/read/wavves-weed-demon.
I Am Not a Hipster, an indie film set in San Diego's music and arts scene, will have its San Diego premiere at the Museum of Photographic Arts on Friday, May 11. The film features songs written by Joel P. West of The Tree Ring, and between screenings, he'll team up with Tree Ring drummer Darla Hawn and actor Dominic Bogart—who plays the film's main character—to perform songs by their fictional band, CANINES. The band has recorded a full album and a music video, which you can check out at caninesmusic.com.
