The M.O.
Born in Austin, Matthew left soon thereafter and finally made it back after years of paying his penance wandering the earth. Before coming to Austin360, Matthew co-edited Austinist.com, worked as an advertising copywriter and led tours of the Roman Forum, among other things.
When not busy pounding away on his keyboard, he can be found at book readings, concerts, gelaterias, pizza joints, Barton Springs, movie theaters, the golf course, or home with a book. The M.O. gives readers a little insight into the world of this man without a plan.

Like the mythical Phoenix, cheese-rock band Extreme is rising from the ashes. The band from Boston is reuniting for its first studio album in 13 years and a world tour in 2008, according to Billboard.com.
The band has apparently reached a new audience through inclusion of one of the band’s songs in the video game ‘Guitar Hero.’ Guitarist Nuno Bettencourt says that the band has decided to return to the studio and the stage because there is hardly any real rock ‘n’ roll left in the world and they are prepared to fill that void.
“We realized not only are the people starved for rock and roll … So are we. Let’s eat,” Bettencourt said.
Rock. And. Roll.
