Andrew W.K. is set to speak this September at Ohio's Canterlot Gardens, a convention for the cult show My Little Pony. The positive party rocker will host a panel to ponder "What Would Pinkie Pie Do?" in an exploration of Pinkie Pie, a pony who shares many of W.K.'s rambunctious qualities. The "Party Hard" singer will also speak on wider topics, like making partying as important as work.

Canterlot Gardens will take place on September 28th-30th in Strongsville, Ohio. For more information, visit the convention's website.

“The Everchanging Spectrum of a Lie”

The Joy Formidable | 2011

The opener off the Welsh group’s The Big Roar album was an epic one, but the band was worried that track had polarized fans. “The first song is eight minutes long,” Rhydian Dafydd, the Joy Formidable bassist, said. “If you did that in the Seventies people would be, ‘Whatever.’ You do it now, people think, ‘Holy s---!’ Some people think it’s the f---ing greatest track on the entire album, and some people think it’s f---ing boring. It’s that element of needing to challenge people.” The band concluded through the song’s lyrics that love was the “everchanging spectrum of a lie.”
