Gainesville, FL. November 1st-2nd, 2008 The weekend before last, I rode along with Atlanta instrumental rockers Sorry No Ferrari for their performance at The Fest, a punk music festival in Gainesville, Florida. I woke up very early Saturday morning after a long Halloween night to ride along with the three fourths of the band I didn't really know, but between naps I had plenty of conversation with them about things including music, the history of the band, and barbecue. This was actually the first show with their new drummer, Jonathan Balsamo, so [...]
Hilarious! The news that Sarah Palin was found to have "Abused her power as governor by trying to have her former brother-in-law fired" made my week. I can't wait to see what John Stewart makes of it ( Check out this brilliantly nerdy Sarah Palin flow chart ). That wasn't the only good news, I've also tracked down ten more tracks for your delectation (What a segue!): (MLD): Springsteen on musiclikedirt!! Bob Dylan the week before and The Stones previously!

Nana Grizol - "Tambourine-N-Thyme" Forgive me for not writing yesterday, I was flying back over the Pacific. The trip back was 11 hours, whereas the trip there was 13. I imagine some great current that starts somewhere deep under Oceania, coming up from the bottom of the world, up through actual desert islands, small ones, up through mountainous countries and growing trees, past all sorts of people who will never meet each other, who hold fast to the ground and ignore the immense pull on them, up to under Siberia, across frozen parts, out [...]
