Could you believe this entry isn't about my folks!!! :-) heh! Well tomorrow Alec and I will be flying out to the east coast... We're gonna fly into Boston tomorrow late night and will be driving all over 'til we get to NYC! This is basically a 9-day road trip so right now I'm burning as many CDs as I can. My car has a MP3 player so those discs ain't gonna work on the rental! gaaah!
This is a music post I reckon. Currently listening to Black Devil Disco Club... Could you believe the original [first six] tracks were done in 1978!?! Su-weet! Here's a short list of music that I'm taking...
Soulwax, Cicada, the new Ulrich Schnauss, new Robin Guthrie n' Harold Budd, ambient tracks from Brian Eno to listen to while driving under the lovely night skies... also tracks by [in no particular order] Toto Coelo, Human League, Siouxsie, Lene Lovich, Adam & the Ants, Go-Go's, Cory Daye, Blondie, Talk Talk, Donna Summer, James Figuerine, Lisa Gerard, Peter, Bjorn & John, Tears for Fears, Peter Shelley, Gabriel & Dresden, Patrick Hernandez, Frankie Smith, Stars on 45; John Foxx, Altered Images, The Psychedelic Furs, The Orb, OMD, The Vapors, Depeche Mode, Flock of Seagulls, Fun Boy Three, Pixies, Snow Patrol, Mickey 3D, Dead Can Dance... oright, and a huge collection of Cocteau Twins, including the original Garlands CD with the 6track from the John Peel session... I miss listening to that CD! It's been a long while! Oright, and some Buddhist chants and my 2 Sadness CDs to boot! Oh why not!
Anyway, that's enough for now. I should go pack since I haven't started yet! In the meantime, enjoy Black Devil in Dub. It's a good break from the chanting don't you think? I'll have my laptop with me, so I won't miss you guys too much! Happy September and hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend. Keep kool! 'til next time!

Hi there. I bumped into this entry pretty late in the game, but it made me chuckle. Why? Because the whole Black Devil Disco Club thing is a hoax that I totally fell for a few months back. It really wasn't produced in 1978. There some article floating around on the Internets about this. I was crushed. And then I was laughing. Great tracks tho. If you like that music you might enjoy the music I mix on my music site: http://www.jm00nchild.com. And you're welcome to check out my blogspot blog any time. I'll be back here for sure. Cheers.

Thanks again everybaudy! We really had a great time! Previously, I've only seen 2 of the 7 states, so this time, it was a real treat. Will write more later and hopefully with some good pictures to boot!
Jef: I'm so writing you an email regarding you visiting Lost Angeles next month! I. Can't. Wait! :-)

Damn, I'm so out of the loop. I would have played tour guide if I'd known you were coming. Hope you had a great time!

Our musical tastes are so similar, it's frightening!
I don't know too many people who even know who the Fun Boy Three is.
I've been enjoying the new Erasure album. I purchased a copy of Eurythmics' Touch Dance CD, and I've been listening to that a lot. I like the new Sophie Ellis-Bextor album, as well as taking some neighborhood walks to Goldfrapp.
Do you like Vanessa Daou? If you don't, let me know. I'll send you some samples.
Oh, I'm coming out to L.A. in October for a seminar. Perhaps we could have dinner together.

So, you've done a nice job of reminding me how old I am with about half of your music selection. The other half? I've never heard of. Maybe I'm too young??????
