You married a music man.
Long day of music today… First I’m heading up to McLean for rehearsal at the unholy hour (relatively speaking in terms of the Book of Rawk, of course) of 10:00 a.m. After a lunch break, I assume, we’re going to the studio at 3:00 to work on additional vocals. I …
Illin’.
Home sick today, blecch. This bizarre cold/sinus thing came on Monday without much warning. Medication last night didn’t prevent much except sleep, so I decided to recuperate. And no, I have nothing else interesting to post about today, just complaints about health. Join us next time for another exciting episode …
Signs of life.
Man, I didn’t realize it had been a whole week since my last post. It’s been a busy week, between working on Fedora commitments, finishing my short stint with the Lianna band, and working on the next Leah Morgan CD. Oh yeah, and the regular day job. And trying to …
Lofty aspirations and low rumblings.
We had a decent gig at The Loft on Thursday night. Unfortunately it wasn’t very well attended. The standout exceptions were (of course) some of the Old Guard, the True Believers, the Through-Thick-N-Thin Pals. You know who you are, and you are much loved and appreciated, especially when you could …
The meaning of fear.
My Internet in the hands of the UN? I guess this means when someone poisons DNS they will send a sharply-worded letter, or maybe Hans Blix will come inspect the offender’s UNIX servers.
And from Hollywood, a savior arose…
Thank goodness Barbra is back to set us straight! Nothing like a little timely politics to make sure your album dates itself at the earliest opportunity. My favorite bit: Streisand and Gibb first worked together on her best-selling 1980 album “Guilty,” which contained hits like the title track and “Woman …
Oh boy, Oldboy.
Eleya and I watched Chanwook Park’s fabulously twisted and sumptuously shot revenge epic Oldboy last night. It’s not hard to see why this film garnered the Grand Prix at Cannes, since it is gripping from start to finish and features incredible acting, some tense action scenes, and a story with …
Feint for the faint of heart.
Word to the wise: DON’T use the new kernel packages I prepared. They will cause spurious lockups when disk activity rises over a certain level. The libata/ATAPI code is not ready for prime time. John Linville said as much in the bug I referenced, but I wanted to try it …
