I've been getting back into the ambient music lately including the Meanderthals. This video is for their song "Bugges Room" from their new release "Desire Lines."
Our Lynchian nights in June can be filled with gloom.
I'm loving the British TV show Beautiful People which is running now on Logo. If you havent been watching, do check it out.
I couldn't miss Gentleman Reg at The Independent last night. It was his first San Francisco appearance, opening for A Camp - whom I cared nothing about. I didn't even stay to see them. But having emailed Reg before asking things like, "When are you going to come to San Francisco?" - it seemed necessary to be there, even if it was happening in the middle of work. I clocked out though, drove over and ran in just as his set began - and I absolutely loved every minute of it. He played mostly things from the new album "Jet Black", but he pulled out "The Boyfriend Song" too which made me very happy.
Norma Louie and I used to spend time at The Silver Crest about ten years ago and we were often the only ones there. It's kind of like entering a world where time has stopped. Driving by and seeing the place always open and often empty has continued to make it a source of mystery and intrigue. That's why this article is so great.
This song has been a quiet favorite of mine for awhile now. It's by Luke, one of several great artists from Denmark that I enjoy. Today I discovered this video for it.

Patrick Wolf played last night at Slim's for two full hours and I couldn't have been happier about it. I love The Bachelor, his new release, and love it even more after hearing several tracks live and listening to his insights into what went into creating them. He truly is a musical genius.
Annie, the founder of World Hoop Day, and I have officially started our planning for World Hoop Day 2009 here in the Bay Area. We'll have nine hours of activities on 9/9/09.
Patrick Wolf's "The Bachelor" is finally out and the video for "Hard Times" has been released. Absolutely brilliant!
