This Saturday, November 21, a massive pop-up free swap in Bushwick is going down. Score! is a pop-up swap — a roving event series that invites New Yorkers to clear out their closets and score new treasures, through every aspect of music, apparel, art, media and random miscellany.

1. The theme from Arthur is jammed in my head. Thanks a lot, Ryan. Your video is cute, but the song! THE SONG. 2. This is the biggie for me: a semi-possible offer from a dreamy fabu publisher is not going to happen. 3. Christmas. I'm getting worse at that holiday, or rather the season. I should have been trained in it better. 4. Rain, rain, more rain. 5. The house smells like an old damp ex-fire because...

The making of a masterpiece. Donald Fagen, Michael Becker and friends discuss the interesting method to Steely Dan's madness: I love singer/songwriter, Michael McDonald. Steely Dan uses him on " Peg " for "certain words that they just wanted to hear a certain way". On Christopher Cross's " Ride Like the Wind ", he simply repeats "such a long way to go" over and...

Just a few short, disconnected thoughts that I've had rattling around my head for a while. Take 'em for what they're worth... *** It makes me happy to hear jazz pouring out of HR-57 's front door on Wednesday evenings, because it means the week is more than half over. Conversely, I am less than thrilled when the Sunday Night Football crowd gathers at Stoney 's. *** Events like last weekend's Mid-City...

It's been awhile since we've featured a classic Oldbag category here on HCwDB. Gold chains swingin'. References to Earth, Wind and Fire's crazy hot tub parties "back in the day." Promises not to go "Phil Spector" on you if only you'll come back and "groove out" at his "pad." You go with your bad self, Producer 'Bag. Sure you haven't had a hit since Christopher...
