Can you remember the times…
Things in my email this week -
A cool music player from Suburban Home Records. – They have several varieties, including band specific ones. I just wish it didn’t break out of the sidebar when I use it. Maybe Virgil could make a skinnier one? (I think I will send off an email and ask)
New stuff from Spectra Books – A nice interview with Alan Campbell. You all can go here to read the first chapter of his new book, God of Clocks.
Lulu is giving me 10% off my next order so if you have something there you think I should read, drop me a note and rec it.
Cool sites I stumbled over this week-
Critical Hits – RPG and gaming blog of Dave Chalker. Funny, geek-ish and a good read. Industry stuff mixed with game logs, reviews and pictures.
Concert Vault – Very cool site. Live concert footage from the 1965 up to 2008. You can stream the concerts for free or download them for a small fee. (this is a legal site – royalties and usage fees are paid)
Oyate – From the About Page -.”
“Oyate is a Native organization working to see that our lives and histories are portrayed honestly, and so that all people will know our stories belong to us. For Indian children, it is as important as it has ever been for them to know who they are and what they come from. For all children, it is time to know and acknowledge the truths of history. Only then will they come to have the understanding and respect for each other that now, more than ever, will be necessary for life to continue.”
Oyate also has a catalog of recommended books, both for schools and personal reading.

I have been trying to write the review for Blurred, by San Francisco singer/songwriter Alex Wise for a few months now but can’t seem to finish it. This is difficult for me to say but I get about halfway through the process and find myself so homesick I just can’t continue. The past few years have been full [...]
Now that Scooter is back sleeping nights I proclaim this ’dig myself out from under the mountain of un-reviewed music‘ week. Kicking off the week o’reviewing is Arc & Stones, the debut EP from Brooklyn band Arc & Stones. The guys are Dan Pellarin (vocals), Ben Cramer (guitar), Joe Doino (drums) and Eddy Bayes (bass). I had [...]
So, I was in the mood for some blues and whoosh – blues appeared. Other people get coupons, bills and news updates in the mail while I get blues music. Cool new blues music in the form of the debut release Telegraph Taboo from the Chicago-based band Nick and the Ovorols. This is not a pretty album. The vocals on a few tracks [...]
