Menomena and PF Flyers: What a Great Pair
By Shanon Kelley
Get it? "What a great pair?" PF Flyers is no stranger to partnering with musicians. Not too long ago, in fact, PAPERMAG gave away a free pair of the Johnny Marr for PF Flyers collaboration. However, they recently partnered with a band to create a video entirely free of branding. In Menomena's newest video, "Evil Bee," the shoe company produced the video for those cute but shy boys from Portland by bringing in Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize winner Stefan Nadelman. The video is quite unique and beautiful. It's all part of PF Flyers' latest endeavor of supporting musicians that share their same passion of design and creativity. Not too shabby.

Stick a Pitchfork in Me: The 2007 Pitchfork Music Festival, Day Three
By PAPERMAG Editors
PAPERMAG correspondent Justin Goncalves packed a toothbrush and a dream and headed Midwest-ward to check out the indie rock wet dream that is the 2007 Pitchfork Music Festival. Here’s his report from the front lines.
Going into the weekend, Sunday seemed the least promising of the three days at the Pitchfork Music Festival. Sure I was excited about Of Montreal (I've seen them four times already!), but I hadn't bought into the Deerhunter hype and De La Soul headlining sounded like a cop-out more than anything. I'm happy to report that I was very wrong.
