M(i|u)x Tape

( Random and Music and Geekery )

I ran across this, and found it interesting: Mux Tapes. Create an account, upload up to 12 or so songs, and share it with people. I took a sampling of what has lately been in heavy rotation, and ordered it alphabetically.
Here’s mine, so go forth and enjoy.
And if you create one, let me know […]

Ironic Butterfly

You are cordially invited to join the St. Anthony Ramblers on Mardi Gras Day, the Fifth of February, 2008.

The Incomparable Mr. Maedgen

( the telly and Music and NOLA )

Well, it’s safe to say that last night, I had by far the safest house in the Treme / 1st District. I had about 8 on-duty cops in my living room, watching the LSU game.
Clint came by my house this morning because I had recorded his performance onto my computer. I gave him a nice, […]

Jose, can you see?

( the telly and Music and NOLA )

Tonight, my good friend Clint Maedgen of Liquidrone, The New Orleans Bingo! Show, and guest singer for the Preservation Hall Jazz Band (for three years now) will be singing the National Anthem for the BCS Championship game tonight with the aforementioned jazz band.
The game will air at 6:30PM Central time on FOX - so please […]

( Music and Cycling )

Truly, a question for the ages.
Bat For Lashes addresses the issue in terms of awesome:

United Abominations.

( Music )

I listened to the new Megadeth studio album, United Abominations, and haven’t been this disappointed since Risk. God that one was bad. No Vic Rattlehead on that cover, and you can barely recognize him on this one. Coincidence? I think not.
Their last studio album, The System Has Failed (2004) was pretty solid if you […]

Monday Morning Thanks

( Geaux Saints! and Music and NOLA )

Two things to be thankful for this morning:
1) The Saint’s long-awaited 180 game last night.
2) The new Happy Talk Band album.
There was a point last night, where I stood up and yelled to the maybe 20 people in Vaughan’s last night, “Remember who isn’t here tonight when we go to the playoffs this year!”
Who dat.

Complicated Life

( Music and NOLA and Cycling )

Clint asked me to put this up on the webternets, so without further ado, I give you “Complicated Life”. Please pass it along.

Complicated Life

What do you do? I’m in Murders and Executions.

The Monk and the Monkey by Maggie McEleney, 31″x47″
What can I say? I love monkeys. I said ~5 years ago, when I first saw it, that one day it would be mine. Yesterday was that day.
