This has been an incredibly shitty week for me. I'm not going to go into detail but a lot of shitty things happened and I'm still not sure if the dust has settled...I still haven't gotten fired from my job so...let's hope that doesn't happen now also just to round it all out... Was it my fault that all this shit happened to me? Kind of tough to say - sometimes things just happen and there's nothing...

Many of the accommodations will meet the artistic sensibilities of the city, along with a great spirit of hospitality, which is warm and gracious here. There are very [...] Havel and Reed Reunited in Prague is a post from: LostHawk...

You can forgive the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame a bit of fuzzy math in calling this their 25th anniversary. First and foremost, any excuse to put on a star-studded concert event like this is going to be accepted. (Just is.) Secondly, they're really splitting the difference, given that it was founded in 1983 but didn't have an induction until three years later. Recorded over two nights (October 29-30)...

So - James Taylor and Carole King are touring next year. I loved JT in his prime, and couldn't avoid Tapestry even tho I never owned it. But I like Carole. And I've seen James a couple of times - in England in '74 (at a festival with Tony Joe White and Lou Reed no less!) and again in Sydney in '81 - with Bill Payne on keyboards and the usual great bunch of musicians. So why am I resisting going this...

There was an interesting article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal about Tom Petty: Rock God Or Mere Mortal? "As Tom Petty prepares to release a career-spanning anthology next week, an attempt to determine where he falls in the music pantheon." The basic premise is that though he sold a lot of records, maybe because he was prolific with the pop hook, he just seems to lack the "cool"...

I think it's cool when an artist branches out. Like when Nick Cave became a novelist, or Lou Reed a photographer . It seems Nick uses the new Leica M9, which is a very impressive camera, a huge step up from the M9. Actually it seems to be beating the big full-frame cameras in image quality, something I did not see coming. And Cave's newest project is extremely "new media" indeed.
