You'll find this week's issue wrapped up in our annual Best of Phoenix special. This week, Chris Hassiotis takes us into the world of teacher-turned-rapper MegaRan, who is taking the world of nerd-rap by storm. We've also got short features on blink-182, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra, who are scheduled to help break in new venue Crescent Ballroom, and show previews about Viva Voce, Blondie, The Zombies, ZZ Top, Incubus, and Sophie Gunn.
