Peter and the Wolf and some short thoughts before bed
Since it was free, I decided to attempt to navigate the Financial District (evil named non-numbered streets!) to see Neil Gaiman (one of my favorite authors ever!) do a reading of Peter and the Wolf, with the Knickerbocker Chamber Orchestra. First event I’d gone to with him there, and I figured I could use a [...]

Demons - Guster
The song explains so much.
My words confuse you
My eyes don’t move a blink
Cause it’s easier sometimes
Not to be sincere
Somehow I make you believe
Believe
When I speak I cross my fingers
Will you know you’ve been deceived?
I find a need to be the demon
A demon cannot be hurt
Honest is easy
Fiction is where genius lies
Cause it’s easier sometimes
Not to [...]
I picked up my guitar today.
As I write this, I’m listening to that newish single off of Jay-Z’s most recent album. the one he did with Alicia Keys at the VMAs. You know, the one where Lil Mama randomly jumped on stage at the end, and we were all thinking WTF is she doing? Empire State of Mind. The one [...]

Massive creative inspiration
Holy crap! Two Posts in one day for the first time in I don’t know how many months (3?).
I’m not sure what caused it or what prompted it or maybe it’s the change in seasons (for the better, in my opinion) (by the way, I still haven’t opened the CD yet. even though i told [...]

new dredg album!
So, I neglected to mention that when I finally got home after my fantastic weekend which all started with the AP show, there was a package waiting for me. And in that package… there was a shirt. And a CD.
From dredg, one of my all time favorite artists… and I’ve had this cd wrapped [...]
Amanda Palmer in NYC
The date was June 5, 2009. Going back through my archives, I remember admitting that I had a growing obsession with Miss Amanda Palmer in late February (post here).
3 months before I got to see this force of nature in person. Behind a crowd that was 5-7 people deep. My best friend and I showed [...]

“I wanna eat Nutella” - AFP/Umbrella
And, before I disappear into real life again, here are two pretty neat videos I found in the last …week? since I’ve posted.
A guy does an acoustic cover to Radiohead - Creep (who hasn’t done this yet?), BUT it’s the audio for a pretty neat video piece. Check it out below.
Someone programmed these bits of [...]

Teeny obsession filled
I’ve had a few posts about the wonderfully talented AFP already. And I’m already a fan of Neil Gaiman — have been for at least a decade at this point. If you haven’t heard of him, you should check his work out. I loves it. I should probably have a post about him soonish.
So, [...]
