Podtropolis

A fine torrent site for those who are too lazy to convert their existing video files to iPod format.

Wheeeee!

Customers: huge earrings

A very nice Mexican lady with limited english needed to use the phone.
After she finally hammered her needs through my thick accent-impaired skull, I dialed a number for her and handed the phone over.

She was wearing immense Liberace-style costume jewlery earrings that were so frikkin' huge she had to take one off to use the phone.

You see something new every day at this place...

music: Bill Frisell

Playing here next wednesday.

His last show was totally mind-blowing.
This one should be equally fantastic in a whole different way- he's running with Jack De Johnette (probably my favorite jazz drummer aside from Bobby Previte...not that the man who played with Miles on Bitch's Brew needs my accolades)and Jerome Harris.

Should be crazy.
Frisell is the most obviously joyous musician I've ever seen- he's practually exploding with happiness onstage, and I spent a good part of his last show laughing with delight.

A full report will follow...
