Los Lobos, ‘the wolves,’ bring their 50th anniversary tour to the Broadberry. I first became aware of Los Lobos in the early 1980s. It was during a time in Los Angeles in which high schoolers like me were venturing out of the comforts of the San Fernando Valley—yes, that “Valley,” in which the words “dude” and “gnarly” floated throughout our language—to head over the hill into Hollywood to see punk and rock bands whose homemade flyers somehow found their way to our suburban school. But the chatter around the band wasn't along the lines of ‘Who are these Latino guys from East L.A’ and ‘What are they doing playing with X, the Circle Jerks or The Blasters?’ It was more...

Soaring over the Pacific, then the hills of Southern California before descending over a backyard pool, a drone flies through musician Travis Barker’s legs and into a mansion in Calabasas. It’s the opening of Season 1 of The Kardashians, the Hulu version of the famous family’s flagship reality TV show. With slick editing, an airborne camera weaves in and out of Kourtney’s, Khloé’s, Kendall’s, Kris’s, Kylie’s, and Kim’s homes and offices, showing the stars going about their days and preparing to gather at Kim’s house for a barbecue. It’s a thrilling moment, not only because of the camerawork’s aerial gymnastics but because it promises that the...
