No matter the mood, popping in The Color Fred's Bend to Break always leaves me feeling 100% stoked on life. From "Hate to See You Go" to "Don't Pretend", I look like a one-girl karaoke machine when I drive home from work. Naturally, you love The Color Fred too, and how could you not? Not only is his talent undeniable, from his past work in Taking Back Sunday to his current solo work, but we also know Fred Mascherino as an environmentalist as well as a vegan friend to animals!

We were able to catch up with Fred on Warped Tour this summer and talk to him about our newest campaign, Meat's Not Green. Check out what he had to say below!

See what I mean? How could you not be a fan? If you already follow The Color Fred closely, you are probably already very familiar with Modlife. If not, you're missing out! Modlife is a social networking website for both musicians and fans to connect, and was created by none other than Tom DeLonge of Angels and Airwaves and Macbeth fame.

The good people at Modlife and Macbeth want to hook up everyone at peta2. That's right, everyone. For the month of November all peta2 members will have access to The Color Fred's Modlife site. In addition to that, you'll receive a 15% off coupon to Loserkids, which includes vegan Macbeth products. If that wasn't awesome enough, Modlife is also giving away a pair of tickets to every show on Fred's current tour, and the only way to enter is to be a registered user.

Modlife, Macbeth, and The Color Fred—what more could you ask for?
Enjoy!

Mink says, "F*ck Fur"! September 12, 2007

If you haven't heard of the band Mink yet, you will very, very soon—mark my words! This weekend, I had the great pleasure of meeting up with the band, and a great time was had by all! The band played the NorVA opening for the, yes THE, Jane's Addiction hero, Perry Ferrell and his Satellite Party.

Mink, who recently opened for another great, Tom DeLonge and Angels And Airwaves during their Australian tour, are not only set to take the music scene by storm, but they're ready to raise awareness about issues that are important to them. Neil, Stella, Nick, Louis, and Grant said they always take the opportunity to use their name to educate people on the fact that animals should not be slaughtered for their fur. And as the band so eloquently states, "THE ONLY MINK YOU SHOULD OWN, SHOULD BE ON YOUR IPOD!"

I brought along some of our "Mean People Wear Fur" tees for everyone and it was time to par-tae...

I was absolutely giddy to see that Neil even decided to wear his spiffy new tee on stage that night when Mink rocked their hearts' out at the NorVA...




Check out the band's MySpace for tour dates, and to catch a ton of behind the scenes footage from the tour. The band is documenting their travels along the way for your viewing pleasure, and may I ask that you pay extra close attention to the F*** Fur blog and Day #33 video . Yours truly makes a special appearance.

Cheers, m'dears!
