goo. to. this. weather. it's fully rainy and gross and weird in NYC today. however, the new Radiohead album, “In Rainbows” is available for download and i really can't think of tunes more fitting for today's vibe. am i right or am i right?

ok a) let me admit that i have never been a huge Radiohead fan. it's non-offensive music to me. i never really disliked them, but i would never really give myself the "fan" status. however, i'm am REALLY interested in how they're releasing this album and will support that in any way i can. (ie: buy the album and steal)

did any of you guys read the New York Times article (you need to log in) on Rick Rubin? it’s really interesting stuff, and it touches on how the music industry needs to drastically change how it sells music as a way to combat illegal downloading. so. effing. true. who thought that SUING the shit out of people, and keeping the old system would work? yikes. i’m also reading book right now that you should all check out called “The Long Tail” by Chris Anderson (*see footnote) and it talks about business models for a digital world. it’s really really REALLY interesting. it basically lays the framework for companies and industries to change the way the sell their products. it also talks a lot about the history of selling things and it's pretty easy to see how the businesses have had to adapt to changes in culture in order to increase their profits.

i’m not saying this Radiohead system is exactly the way to go, but it's shaking things up a bit right? i fully believe that people are instinctively good humans and we are OK with paying someone for a respectable service and a quality product. (as long as it’s fair to us). when given the opportunity people want to do the “right” thing. here is good music, at a fair price, it’s easy for me to consume and once I buy it, it’s mine with few limitations. perfect.

holy round table discussion batman…

ok so, who bought this album? what do you think about the music? what do you think of the way it was sold? what would be your ideal way to buy music? ohhh I have a million more questions. gimme your thoughts!

(*you can read an article on "The Long Tail" that was published in Wired Magazine here. It will give you a sense of what the book is about")

okok i'm officially tired of this wall building shit.

kidding.

kinda.

i think we get to start painting tonight? oof. this is the "boring, nothing here for you to see" stage.

rob started to teach me how to beat match last night. it went exactly how i thought it would. with me being rythmically retarded. have you ever seen me try to clap along at concerts? now that, my friends, is a trainwreck. i really don't know what it is, i can dance, so i must understand beats right? i dunno...it's going to take some really simple practice and counting along to songs before i can even think about fucking around on turntables. becca said it best i think; i'm the "helen keller of Dj-ing". SO. TRUE. i'll let you know when my epiphany at the well happens.....

i did however buy my first needles yesterday. big day kids, big day.

its pouring rain. "the next manhattan bound L train will depart in 15 minutes". worked for 10 hours.

yet, suprisingly happy. i blame you.

ohhai, dry wall.

ohhhh looky looky! runner-up for best new party! (just sayin, we have our own t-shirts and dimirty does not. :P)

wall building diary: day six (?)

i'm not going to post a picture of yesterdays progress because it's really had to tell what has changed. BUT it's almost done! jessica and i dragged ourselves to home depot today to pick up paint colors and supplies. i do stress the "drag" because i was nursing a serious hangover royale. with cheese. (last night we went to the SNL after party. OOF.com) ANYWAY...things are coming along nicely and everything will be finished up by the end of this week! jessica is going to be away being cool this weekend, but expect a wall warming party ASAP.

room color = pea green. one wall. so. rad.
