Entertainment Weekly recently did a special 1,000th issue. In it, they picked the 100 New classics in Film, Televison and Music. More than one blogger went through the various lists and added their two cents. This is something I wanted to do, so I was inspired by Johnny Bacardi, who in turn was...

And no, I'm not including the one listed in the below post, because that would be rather redundant. 1) I first heard this song at a dance concert last fall and immediately fell in love with it. If you like slow, soulful songs in general, you will, too. I can't really say anything about it except...
I scribbled lots of notes down during my last days at work and thought I might as well cobble them together into a blog entry. Thursday night is my reluctant leaving-do, one day early. I agree to it only if I can tag along to a colleague's birthday drinks because I don't want the fuss of a separate...

6.4.08 There is a song by Belle and Sebastian called, “Oh Get Me Away From Here I’m Dying,” that I rather like. There have been moments in my life over the past few years when the title of the song has resonated with me – moments of feeling stuck in Worcester or feeling trapped by the fear...
Thankfully, we were still able to wake up early for Kuya Deo's Wedding after arriving late at the hotel during the morning from our Friday night rendezvous. Early in the morning, Mom sent me to an errand to bring some things to Ate Belle. I asked Floren to tag along to the Diamond Hotel which is...
On Thursday night last week, Shane and I headed out to Commercial Drive – the “artsy” part of town – for a series of concerts. The Libra Room along the Drive was hosting four artists as part of the larger New Music West event. I was particularly interested in seeing Kensington Prairie, an...
07/16/2008 19:33:38 ♥ written by vu ( ) Read More Ryan previously mentioned mister Pelle Carlberg in context to Belle & Sebastian. I've actually never thought Carlberg sounded that much like B&S, but with this latest single "1983 (Pelle & Sebastian)", I am proven wrong. Sure, the song is about...
You know those days that just leave you feeling like you are on the chopping block? Today was one of them. I didn't know the international language for small talk, I laughed inappropriately at things that weren't funny and just generally felt out of place. Today felt very out of sorts. As I write...
Frightened Rabbit The Midnight Organ Fight (Fat Cat) Thank Heaven for the Scots, eh? If it weren't for the ever charming lads and ladies from Scotland, British indie rock would be in the crapper. Last year it was the solid, serious album from The Twilight Sad and now this year's moniker to them is...

What a way to start our tenth season at the Hollywood Bowl! Last night’s show headlined by Thievery Corporation sold out and the Bowl was packed by the second act with pockets of happy dancing people everywhere. It was a boiling hot weekend in LA and you could tell people were ready to release...
Last fall, I had the most glorifying, joyous, spiritual experience of my life when I saw the Arcade Fire in Kansas City. Now, I've been really lucky to see some amazing bands live and have been blown away and in awe of my luck in getting to see them - Belle & Sebastian, Jens Lekman, The New...

The Fall was even better the second time. David and I went to see it with Susan and Belle this afternoon and it was as good, in my opinion, as it was the first time. I got to look more at the locations and the scenes. I wish I could find screen caps of this film. There are too many places where I...
