whoaaaaaaaaaaaaa

First, I'm sitting here and I heard my cell go off. which upset me at first because I thought it was Virgin Mobile just saying "you got a text message we can't let you see it because you have no money left! HA!" but instead it was an advertisement for THIS AMAZING EVENT: http://www.virginmobilefestival.com/#/lineup/

oh shitttttt. I am not so sure how I like all of them (Taking Back Sunday?) but it's free and the good bands (Franz! St. Vincent! PUBLIC ENEMY!) more than make up for it. but then it's during the school year. on a Sunday. but, you know. screw it. layout's on weekdays. and I think I might have that Monday off. fuckers! (actually classes begin that Monday, but as far as I know if I headed up immediately thereafter I'd be okay)

But back in Erie, and sooner than that, Christopher Bell will be playing the Presque Isle Coffeehouse on July 1st as part of his bike tour (some people ride those). I would go! I will go! http://www.myspace.com/thechrisbell

and finally, second to Ghostface Killah, this is the best interview I have ever encountered. http://www.spin.com/articles/qa-marilyn-manson I should start listening to him, just because of this:
This is going to be the best interview ever.
Good.... I was going to email you a photograph I just took. It's of a new piece of modern art I created. Let's call this work my Jack-off Pollack, of sorts. I had two condoms -- alien things to me, I haven't seen them in 25 years -- and I threw them on the mirror, and they stuck, and they formed this piece of modern art. And I can't decide what to call it. I'm thinking about calling it "I Don't Want You to be Cursed With My Retarded Child," or "It's Not Just Love, It's a Lifestyle," because they were Lifestyle condoms.

"Mon Soleil" - Ashley Park

If there's anything people take away from my piss-poor legacy, I hope it's what a huge, unabashed fan of "Emily in Paris" I am and will continue to be. People love "90 Day Fiancee," "The Bachelor," and other garbage - allow me "Emily," which is at least harmless, kind of goofy fluff (which does, unfortunately, lean into some stereotypes, as the country of Ukraine knows ). I have already watched Season 2 twice. And honestly my favorite part of this show (despite my crush on Camille Razart and Lily Collins channeling Audrey Hepburn hardcore ) is Ashley Park. This woman has superstar written all over her. She's a bona fide Broadway star, and "Emily in Paris" has served as her pivot into the zeitgeist.  "Emily in Paris" is also showcasing her vocal prowess front and center this season, with her covering BTS, "All By Myself," "Sympathtique," and Marilyn Monroe. But the real standout performance is th

"Anchors" - AM Higgins

Here's a nice breezy, almost sensual song from AM Higgins (the solo project of musician Annie Toth) to start your Tuesday off right.  Her debut album "Hymning" will be out November 5th on Victorialand Records. The album was mixed by Casey Foubert, a frequent collaborator of Sufjan Stevens. The album "captures the first years of moving from an American city to rural France." Sounds like "Hymning" will be a welcome escape from the world we live in right now, especially considering that Annie Toth counts poets Mary Oliver and Thomas Merton as influences.

Summer Playlist - 2022 Edition!

 It's truly the little things in life that make a world of difference. And for me, that means my summer playlist! Behold, I have put together 2022's edition. It includes cuts from artists like: - Mitski - Uffie - Johnny Orlando - Kylie Minogue + Jessie Ware - Florence and the Machine (who put out a fantastic album this year after a long dry spell of kind of "meh" records. Her pairing with Jack Antonoff worked out quite well!)  - Bilal - Harry Styles (he has some catchy music!)  - KATE BUSH DUH - And of course, Lana. It's also available on Apple Music, but since I recognize a lot of folks use Spotify, here's that link. Enjoy!
