... Footsteps. Nothing but footsteps, loud and clear, walking the length of the brownstone apartment above. A constant pacing that started near the front door, walked to the opposite end of the house, turned and walked back to the door. Slowly, methodically, but unmistakably. At first, I believe the radio was on, I could hear this strange pacing (they had no dogs or pets of any kind) only intermittently, until it finally made its way into our consciousness as the Art Director's Daughter and I made dinner. I turned off the radio. Then, when it was very quiet, a chill [...]
Fleetwood Mac: That's All For Everyone
Tonight, The Duke, The Duchess and Coconut will be partaking in some live Pink Martini . In honor of the concert in Princeton, here is a musical homonym based around the leadoff track of the most recent album. Pink Martini ∞ Everywhere Polaris ∞ Everywhere (from Pete and Pete) Bears ∞ Everywhere Fleetwood Mac ∞ Everywhere Which song do you dig best? Or did I leave out your favorite "Everywhere" song? [...]
Fleetwood Mac - Sara (MP3) Nestled on a Hatchback Cosmic Disco mix recently was 'Sara' by Fleetwood Mac . This made me think, and think hard - 'my favourite Fleetwood Mac record'? Now this is a seriously tough question. Selecting a favourite track from these guys/gals is no easy task (or should that be 'tusk'). There's just too darn many... I have always considered 'Sara' to be up there. With a heavy beat similar to that of ' tusk ', the wonderful harmonising, and the emotionally drenched vocals of Stevie [...]
seaweed hit the northwest scene about the same time i was getting my first pubes. lumped in the same scene as quicksand and mudhoney and jawbreaker , i first heard these cats in the movie 'clerks'. among the many excellent tracks on the 'clerks' soundtrack--alice in chains' 'got me wrong', stabbing westwards' 'violent mood swings', the jesus lizard's 'panic in cicero', those bad religion and golden smog songs--was seaweed's sweet take on fleetwood mac 's 'go you own way'. you all know fleetwod mac right? in between losing members to kid fingering [...]
OK, I'm back in Sydney after a holiday which had me back and forth between here and Canberra [Yes, i talking about that luke-warm melting pot of middle class bureaucrats that can't even call itself a 'state'] So, since my return I realise I missed a few things... and sexy things they are: The return of Gnarls Barkley with their track Run : which I'm yet to love, but see a yummy future for... WHICH HAS SINCE BEEN REMOVED [...]
Nice mix by Trailmix of the classic Fleetwood Mac track "Make Lovin' Fun." The Grindin' list is responsible for this tip and its a good one. This track was featured on Lindstrom & Prins Thomas Essential Mix aired on BBC Radio 1. Check it out: Mp3: Fleetwood Mac - "Make Lovin' Fun" (Trailmix Remix) [...]
• Oh my God. This is not a joke. The people at FOX and Redux Beverages are going to start producing Brawndo energy drink. You know, "the thirst mutilator" from Idiocracy ? The one that everyone in the future uses to solve every problem, because "It has electrolytes?" The absurdity in the film that best signified the collapse of America is going to become a reality. Says another blogger, Karina Longworth, "So, to recap: Fox wouldn't support a film about Brawndo, the energy drink that destroys plants, debases the human race, and makes those who drink it 'win at [...]
I cannot tell a lie; this is not my favorite Mayer tune. Having said that though, I gotta say that the sentiment behind it just knocks me out. I'm long on two things...legs and words. Ironically my Grandfather happens to be a man of very few of the latter. He's been very sick for a very long time and as we near the twilight of his time here with us in the physical world I've been helping
37 degrees in november. holy climate change, batman! the end is nigh. no strenuous activity today. today i discovered that 45:33 is a good album to listen to when you are sitting in a sweltering, stuffy room answering emails and writing blog posts. i'm totally psyched! if only i could lose weight via frenetic typing. meanwhile i maintain my james murphy physique. disco. here are a few tracks that i am loving today, along with 45:33, in all this heat. i don't know if these tracks [...]
To My Father on the Occasion of His Retirement: This song will always take me back to the summer I spent in your rambling and elegantly shabby house in Holland Park. You would do the accounts and play records on Sunday afternoon while I lazed about on the settee. I loved how this song made me feel! It sounded like a memory of something that had once been bright and full of promise, only to fade in the glare of its own brilliance. I would dream of "the sea and golden sand" on those lazy Sunday afternoons . [...]

Tom from bag of songs . My high school years were ushered in alongside the rising tide of disco and and ended amidst the crashing surf of new wave and punk rock in spring of 1980. These were the years that I truly learned the power of music. It could bring people together, just as easily as separate them, but it also had the amazing ability to transport you to another place where all the anxiety, stress and pressure did not exist. [...]

Es ist soweit. Ich verschwinde dann mal eben für'n paar Minuten in den wilden Westen - Beeren jagen, Bären sammeln und nebenbei ein wenig Gold schlürfen. Allen Leser/innen wünsch ich einen schönen Restsommer, machts besser, man sieht/hört/liest sich im Herbst wieder. Ich werd mich derweil um ein paar spannende Stories und Snapshots kümmern. Zum Abschluss gibt's noch mal ne
Here is what I did with my body one day: At Leysin, in 1945, a piece of one of my ribs was removed, and subsequently given back to me, quite formally, wrapped up in a piece of medical gauze (the physicicans professed that my body belongs to me, in whatever dismembered state they restored it to me: I am the owner of my bones, in life as in death). For a long time I kept this fragment of myself in a drawer, a kind of body penis analogous to the end of a rib chop, not knowing quite [...]
