This is one of those great memes that I rarely do for some reason. Here’s my Friday Random Ten songs (put shuffle on the mp3 player, first ten songs, no skipping): Listen on Rhapsody White Stripes – Hotel Yorba Ben Folds – All U Can Eat Joni Mitchell – My Old Man Orchestra Baobab – [...]
Just went to Tower Records and picked up some great new CDs. Some of these I’ve been listening to for a while on Rhapsody but I just needed to get them in a physical, high quality medium. Matisyahu – Live At Stubb’s – Everyone’s favorite Hassidic reggae rapper. Feist – Let It Die – I’ve [...]
With the release of their high quality (well, 96k) stream, I’ve been listening to XPN, the best FM music station in Philadelphia, and my once former place of employ, quite a bit more. The station dropped the pretense of being commercial free a few years ago but the few commercials you do hear are fairly [...]
From my secret sources in AOL land, a partial broadcast schedule for Live 8. This doesn’t include all the acts but at least it gives you a partial idea. 12:14 – Black Eyed Peas 12:33 – Bon Jovi 1:00 – Destiny’s Child 1:16 – Kanye West 1:30 – Will Smith 1:56 – Toby Keith 2:13 [...]
It’s been a while since I did a round of cool and interesting links, so I though I’d throw some stuff out there for y’all. Kos found a great flash applet, courtesy of Arlington, VA’s Newseum, an interactive news museum dedicated to helping the public and media interact and study the ever-valuable and under attack [...]
And so do local Jersey power poppers Fountains of Wayne apparently. Their just released album, Out-Of-State Plates oddly begins with a clip from Terry Gross’s introduction of Ken Tucker‘s review of one of their past albums from Fresh Air. I interned for WXPN for a year as a production assistant for Live at the World [...]
I don’t know when I’m gonna have the time to get caught up on posting (and the thousands of posts on my Bloglines I haven’t read) but I thought I’d take a moment to praise this year’s Bonnaroo event. Bonnaroo is an annual music festival that takes place on a 600 acre farm in Manchester, [...]
I’m currently in the car on my way to Bonnaroo. I may or may not try and post from my phone again over the course of the weekend so things will most likely be quiet here for a few days. Have a great weekend.
First of all, great weekend. There was a festival in the Northern Liberties with art, crafts, music, and beer. Artists opened their studios, Art Star Gallery had a craft and art bazaar (where I picked up a cellphone/iPod cozie and some glass plugs), and the night ended with bands, including Kenn Kweder, and Yards beer [...]
Everyone else does it. I might as well too. Here’s my random 10 Friday tracks. This playlist was randomly generated by Rhapsody based on my “recent listening history”: Procul Harum – Simple Sister* Joshua Redman – Molten Soul Joe Henderson – Boto Faust – Picnic On A Frozen River, Deuxieme Tableux Joe Lovano Nonet – [...]
