sing little songbird

i had an amazing weekend!

as i'm sure you can imagine, a large part of that was due to our concert with joe gil at the hotel cafe.  
 everything went fine and it was fun to see so many friends {and even some family} there supporting us.  
i couldn't hear any of us very well {the sound guy was less than stellar}, but i had oh so much fun singing up on stage again.  i really do miss that, and the passion within me to perform has definitely been reignited.  
look out world!

a few other fun musical things from my weekend...
running into sia at intelligentsia {one of my favorite artists & activists},
learning to play "the cowboy song" on the ukulele {from joe vs. the volcano},
getting to hang out with the incredibly sweet guys from the daylights, and experience the awesomeness/beauty that is their concert! seriously, if you get a chance to see the daylights, DO IT.


{these photos were taken by one of dannon's friends, notes from vivace.  aren't they amazing?}

all in all, it was a pretty great weekend!  i'm really excited about this week too because i'll be working on a couple awesome projects {more to come on that soon}. we'll also be ending the week on a high note, at the silver lake jubilee, a two-day arts festival that some friends of ours started.  there will be a bunch of great bands, comedians, poets, and artists.  you can be sure to find me at the lady danville & the little ones shows 
{if you've followed me for a looong time, you may remember me featuring the little ones here.}  
come join us if you can!

i also made a playlist for an extra boost in inspiration and motivation this week,
which i hope may be of assistance to you too:

 



have a fantastic tuesday everyone!

408 cheytac vs 50 bmg

.408 CheyTac Fredo Viola Aug 29, 10:51 AM This is a real bummer to me. I pride myself on making as little an impact on the environment as I can, but make my living using computers to make music... and I use all Apple products... so I'm feeling really guilty about this right now. 408 CheyTac final.jpg appleguy123 Apr 22, 10:32 PM Because it is the third longest example of drift on PRSI (for now) and since appleguy123 started that one, of course he wants it to continue. Caught! :D Knowing how the PRSI works one naive bump could help me achieve the record. Maadi-Griffin 50BMG Pistol Draythor Apr 13, 04:33 PM GGJstudios Thanks, man. I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in? Licensing rights? quot;Is life so dear or peace so AlBDamned Aug 29, 11:14 AM zero evidence, other than my gut feeling. Then that's nothing but semi-diluted Apple fanboi-ism which is, in my op

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's
