Finally a post that is focused on Hello! Project. But first... BILLBOARDS!!! I love that all of the idol groups seem to be omnipresent around Japan. I was walking through a department store yesterday and they had Kimagure Princess playing in the store's audio system. I was LOLing at that. And on the...
And I thought today would be a humdrum day. Boy was I wrong! the day started with my visit to Odaiba that I spoke about in the previous post. And for evening entertainment my AKB friends advised me that AKB48 Team K's Umeda Ayaka makes a weekly appearance at Tokyo Tower as a DJ. So after a short...
Dear iTunes, Your Genius tool in the iTunes store is a very useful one for me, particularly since I recently lost a long list of potential CDs to buy and artists to check out. I enjoy the fact that I can be matched up with artists that I would potentially like. However, I have a few bones to pick...

Latest additions, and even a few subtractions. If this list is for sharing, I wonder if I should note when certain bands are spinoffs from each other. Like Graham Lewis's "He Said" and Bruce Gilbert are members of the band wire. That might be worth noting as a cross reference. Where to draw the...

Pink is my favourite. Favouritefavouritefavourite. If I could sing, I'd want to sound like her. A song on her new album (it's called Funhouse, and you should go buy it, right now) kinda reflects how I'm feeling about life right now. It's about how life and love are scary and weird, and there are...
Youthful Recollections: The Best of Seasons By Russ Pearson Well, it’s that time of year! The season I look forward to more than any other and finally it’s come around again. No, I am not talking about autumn…although that probably is my favorite of the four celestial seasons…I’m talking...

Last week I touched briefly on the fact that I'm stark raving mad. Er, rather, that I've become drawn into the pastel world of Hello!Project - well, okay, just Morning Musume so far, but I make no promises - at a much faster pace than anticipated. Yeah, that sounds more professional. I wrote at the...

It was my last night in London, my last night before going back to America from a very long vacation. The vacation resembled more of an escape from my empty home, mourning family, and drug habits. I’d been around the world, and being back in English-speaking lands was something I was still getting...

Yeah...oddly enough, it's actually been very difficult to write this blog so far. I've fully typed it out and deleted everything that was written (after reviewing it) three times already! This is because I'm doing my best not to make this particular blog into something that defames or downplays the...
I was reading this with interest on the web - Top 20 A&R people in the world.. might be good for all you budding musos, and A&R submitting bands and producers... I found it curious that none of the A&R Team that administer these (A&R) pages are there. Does at mean we can't trust their judgement, or...
