::EOU: Prime Time: Empire Records::

In honor of Record Store day being this Saturday, I am highlighting one of my most favorite movies of all time, Empire Records (which was even filmed in Wilmington). We are supporting our local record store, Gravity Records! Empire Records taught me many things; it introduced me to Gwar, taught me that work can be fun, that friends are friends no matter what, and how to appropriately catch a shoplifter. Damn the Man, Save the Empire!

Honor thy local record store!

All over the internet you can find it but courtesy of a friend of mine, I have stumbled across the Lana Del Rey vs Notorious B.I.G. Born Ready to Die.

Stream Album here

I am a HUGE Lana Del Rey fan, and I know a bit about Big Papa, but this album might have sparked up a new level of love for both.

I’m not sure how they met, however, it appears they both love crowns.

You heard right…STYLE BATTLE!

14 girls will compete. 7 pairs of leggings!

**You do not have to be local to enter**

Which means, there will be 7 battles. 2 girls will get the same pair of leggings- style them their way! Show us how you’d rock them. Then the images will be uploaded on Facebook and your friends and our fans will vote on who did it best! (Yes, there are 9 styles, but only 7 will be used)

From the 7 winners we will pick our top 3 favorites, and those 3 will go into another STYLE BATTLE either restyling their pair or going for a new pair!

Those final 3 will compete via Facebook again, and the winner will get a FREE PAIR OF LEGGINGS, an EOU earring and other merchandise to pair with their new JUNKIES!

Do it!

TO ENTER!

Send an email to Michael@EdgeofUrge.com

Include

1- Your name
2- Your Location
3- The Junkies You’d Style
4- A brief statement about yourself

GOOD LUCK!

Recently, an awesome Wilmington musician, Adrian Varnam, and his housemates fell victims to a house fire. No one was injured, which is most important and a miracle, but many of their lives’ precious possessions weren’t as lucky.

When hearing of this tragedy, there was concern for the state of Adrian’s violin and guitar, which amazingly, he had with him at the time of the fire.

Music was saved.

Billy, from one of our favorite restaurants, Manna, has worked together to get a music fest together to raise money for Adrian and his friends.

But Adrian said no.

Instead, the Music Festival will benefit the Cape Fear Red Cross. Adrian, who lost many irreplaceable items, passed on receiving help in order to help others.

Music is going to help save others.

Please come out on Saturday, February 25th, starting a noon, and lasting all afternoon- at the 5 Star Tavern on Second and Princess. If you’re a musician, bring your music, and entertain the crowd. It’s free, but all donations will go the the Cape Fear Red Cross.

Here’s to Adrian, and a giving, caring spirit!

Come together.
