conflict of interest alert

spoke to beth ditto about music then fat

baffled by the scent

the psychotic reactions to the incredible new ghostface album don't surprise me but they still suck, particularly the one that said 39-year-old gentlemen should be ashamed of their "dick as hard as a callus" (where are these people when three 6 mafia are pushing heads into their crotches? oh right, glowing). luckily, the scene is still insane enough to let me have the floor.

don't touch my shit

very proud of this one and seeing them again tonight.

working my ass off

where the hell have i been you ask? still here never left.

this decade-end singles business is tough

fall out boy's "sugar we're going down" sounds better than ever. hoku's "another dumb blonde" doesn't hold up at all; the marching fake hiphop beat (with scratches!) is all wrong - only makes it look even more lightweight. a dance remix i'd consider if anyone knows one? expecting (hoping) for a 100-300 song list at most.

now pondering whether i should've gunned for the 25 most erotic rock critics

Very cool: I was blown away that Freaky Trigger named me as one of the 25 best music critics under 25, and Tom Ewing even cited some crap from this blog as his evidence. Theon won the better praise as always though, for his astounding googleability.

In other news, I'm getting way too comfortable over there.
