And so the 'week of rock' has passed, my body and brain are just about back to normal, and a bit of blogging is in order. The Pipeline radio appearance, Vermont rock trip, and our show at the Middle East were all semi-smashing successes, thanks to our friends, family, and also-fans. Seriously, I'm riding a little bit of a post-show buzz that promises to last awhile. There's almost always something negative that I dwell on about these things, but I can't seem to find one this time around.
From the CT to the City... Joe & Andi were up for the first time since their engagement, and much fun was had by all. It was a cool little moment when Matt and Mary showed up, and the four of them got to exchange a round of mutual-engagement-congratulation action. Speaking of Matt n' Mary... ain't this sweet? I took that photo, and I'm damn proud I did. The ever-nearing nuptuals are in June, and I can't wait... Starlight, Star Bright... Hey, check this out... I finally got around to encoding and posting every song by my old band, Starlight Conspiracy. This is the band that Denny and I were in up in Vermont for years, just before we moved to Boston and started up the Also-Rans. There's lots of seldom-heard gems in there (alongside the sketchy stuff), so grab them if you're at all curious. Some of them even sound better than the cds they were released on. Just click the song titles to download. (While you're at it, don't forget that the complete discography from My Own Sweet, Chris' old band, is available for download as well.) Speaking of Mr. Kelly... Secretpants.com: the Chris Kelly Interview Drop by John Cahill's Secretpants site for a little conversation with the Also-Ran's illustrious singer. Rock star. Reviewed, for His and Her Pleasure... Grovel's Graphic Novel Reviews A new UK-based site that covers the booming Graphic Novel medium. A nice companion to the ever-valuable Artbomb. Choke on This... Propaganda: A Killer By Any Other Name A biting little animated movie at the "Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids" website about Philip-Morris' latest shady move... changing their name to try and shake their 'bad guy' image. It's not gonna work, death merchants. Speaking of Starlight... NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day I'd forgotten about this. Start your day off by feeling small and insignificant. It works wonders. Father Time, Pencil Pusher... Writing the Time A brilliant little flash site. Days, hours, minutes, & seconds disappear with a little help from a quick hand and an eraser. You Want Fries With That? National Communications Fast Food Frequencies How odd... listed here are all the frequencies that most national fast food chains use for their intercoms and drive-thru communication. If you have a radio scanner, you can take a peek into the seedy underbelly of your local BK. Do you really want to know what goes on in there? Not Until April 23rd?! Grrrr. Argh. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Air Dates Guide A handy little site to check every air-date for new and old Buffy episodes. Beware of clicking the show titles for unaired eps, though... major spoiler action. Straight from the (Open) Source... Geek(Wisdom).Com The self-proclaimed "place for open source wisdom". Could I be more overhwhelmed by the amount of things I'd like to learn about on there? Doubtful. Pyra-Mania... Article: Pyra and Blogging A Boston Globe / DigitalMass article on the forefather of weblogging, Evan Williams.  |
