So Lollapaloolza is quickly approaching and even though its still 2 months away this highly anticipated concert fest sells quick and hotels go quicker. Starting August 1-3 in Grant Park Chicago this musical, cultural community experience is a one of a kind sensory blowing must see adventure. Grant...
I've finally left Illinois. Silly me I thought Des Moines was on the Mississippi so I was overcome with joy to find myself crossing the river much sooner than expected. Iowa however is one nasty short and squat little state. I should warn you that Interstate 80 takes a turn at Des Moines so if you...
09:36 Good morning All:) It's a rainy morning here in ATL! We really needed it:) # 09:41 @lilji25 Just like the Serengeti, drop your guard & miss the sunset at your own risk:) # 09:44 The markets today are behaving like my first Mercedes: feed it once & it comes back for your arm:( No diesel...
Oh sweet Lord. Excuse le sinful editorial (via Vogue Paris, circa September '08 issue) in the form of Elise Crombez. I don't have much else non-provocative. I kid, I kid. I am.. alone, at home, tackling on the silent spectators, snaking through time, doing what I do best. Yes, laze around. What have...
Topping the weekly charts this week are the Brazilian Girls, pushing Iceland's Emiliana Torrini out of the top spot from a few weeks before. Thievery Corporation do esn't disappoint on their new release, Radio Retaliation, holding the #3 spot. New work by Michael Franti and TV on the Radio round out...
So, I’ve cut the laziness factor from 12 days to 9 days between posts. That’s got to be something, right? Over the past 1 and 2/7ths weeks much has gone down...Including, but not limited to: The brand-spankin’-new Groove Effect layout is live (where you can check out my latest blurb on...
Well its a long time since I last posted, you know how it is, start with good intention and after a few moths of conscientious blogging its all out the window. I almost forgot I had started it... So I guess I will feverishly update for another few months and then forget all about it again, although...
I told myself that I was going to do some research on my Russian trip, but got sidetracked when I felt the urge to find some new music. A quick stop at emusic and I added the remainder of the Challengers album by The New Pornographers, In Rainbows by Radiohead and a disc by someone calling herself...

Ignore hunger pang. I am home. I loved it-- le trip back home, roughing up the tarred roads in the cabriolet, indulging in selfless thoughts.. on leather pants and all things promiscuous. I was unmanned on the morning of Eid-- in red, lashes curled and thicken with a shot of jet black mascara...
Madonna has a song on her new album, Hard Candy, called "She's Not Me", that is pretty cool. Wendy Melvoin from Wendy & Lisa and Prince's band, The Revolution, is credited with playing the guitar on the song, and her name is even mentioned in the song. Like other songs on the album, the sound of the...

07:04 Gotta study French tonight. # 12:12 I really like that Santogold album. I like it a lot. I wish it had come out a few months ago; it would have been my Paris soundtrack. # 04:51 Hungry, but it's too early to start cooking dinner. #Thank LoudTwitter for more of the same miserable crap.
A day later and I am still enjoying the debut album from Santogold. As of now my favorite track would be Anne. Something fresh and fun at the same time. Good summer music. Work surprised me with a quiet first night back and I appreciated it. Now my hope is that stays true for the next two days. If...
Who knew, right? I mean this is Robyn. Like, mid-ninties, "Show Me Love"-Robyn. I think someone moved her to Brooklyn, gave her a neon-colored keffiyeh, a beat machine, and told her to listen to Santogold. And THIS is what happened. It's insane and nonsensical...and oddly I cant...stop...watching?...
So here is the first announcement for the line up at the 2009 Big Day Out. Not very impressive if you ask me. OK, OK, Neil Young is great - but at the Big Day Out? Not sure about that. At the Entertainment Centre where he's doing his side show - yes, amazing, I'll definitely go. And the Prodigy??!!...
Debbie Harry is still a young punk: Dressed in a loose floral dress and Converse sneakers, she pouts a little while waiting for Santogold to put on an elaborate purple leather jacket and lime-green hot pants, then carefully pack up a suitcase’s worth of clothes after her photo shoot. But the...
Hi ladies, brief-ish hiatus. Why? HSC, that's why. I mean you should all know unless you're 50 and you're fapping the tears away. Haha sorry. Speaking of fap, I visited /b/. It really wasn't as bad as expected but Lenny swears I went on a "good day". I don't give a flying frock. I want a shirt that...

Check out Robyn's latest entitled Cobrastyle. Hot track and hot video with awesome effects using paint. Seems like the latest trend since Sia and Santogold have done the same in their recent videos. Anyways... good to see Robyn's awesome album still has life in it with the release of this track.
