Great Googa Mooga, the music-meets-food festival where the chefs are bigger draws than the bands (last year’s headliners included the Roots and Hall and Oates, while De La Soul, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the Flaming Lips are among those performing this year), has been called “food culture’s Woodstock.”

Martha’s Vineyard would probably be one of the last islands one thinks of when they think of getting “irie” but the upscale Massachusetts enclave (which is currently hosting the Obamas, among other notables) is getting a heavyweight dose of Jamaican flavor. This past Sunday’s Boston Globe has the story of Irie Bites, a food truck that’s been serving up jerk chicken and other yard food specialties on “the Vineyard” for the last two summers. Notably, the truck’s operator is Melody Cunningham, the widow of the late Peter Tosh, who shares the Irie Bites story with the Globe in an interview. Read what she has to say here.

Monday is Jamaica’s big 50th anniversary, and Rice and Peas will be celebrating the momentous occasion in fine style at Westway in NYC. Get all the details from the Spliffington-designed 1962 Jamaican stamp flyer you see here, and meet us and the R&P crew (Max Glazer, Micro Don, DJ Maya, Orijahnal Vibez and LargeUp’s own DJ Gravy) there. Just in case you don’t know how Rice and Peas parties go down (and why you need to be there if you’ll be in NYC), get familiar with this photo series from the 5th anniversary party at Santo’s Party House in June, and LargeUp’s R&P-shot webisodes with Collie Buddz and Leftside.
