Valentina Hasan will NOT be at Coachella this year, though if this viral video keeps spreading, she might have a shot at headlining Bonnaroo. Thanks, jozjozjoz! Follow-up by Tony Pierce at LA Times.

Coachella Crunch: Midnight Juggernauts

So Many Bones…

I knew I’d been watching a lot lately, but this is kinda unreal. Bones sits in the number six slot of my last.fm chart this week. Also making a strong showing is Prince, but only because I’m trying digging through music for the upcoming wedding gig. Midnight Juggernauts are up there because I’m boning up […]

More Scarce Newman Tracks

Thomas Newman

LA Metroblogging

Yet another impediment to my frequent posts here is that I’m now blogging over at metblogs.com. It actually makes sense. Back when this site was called Hollywoodland I posted about music, movies, writing and Los Angeles. Now that I’ve carved away that last topic I’ll need some place to post pictures of the Sunset & […]

Alberto Iglesias – Todo Sobre Mi Madre

Todo Sobre Mi Madre

Spinning Again

Destroy Rock & Roll

Rolling ‘Bones’ – Ten Things About The Show

It’s been a while since I posted. I threw something up on Friday (the thing about Thomas Newman) and then I threw something up on Monday, but that was a different kind of throw up entirely. The kind that comes with being sick. I spent eight germ-free months in Santa Fe. Now I’m back in […]

Rare (ish) Thomas Newman

My First Muxtape

I rather like the simplicity and elegance of muxtape.com. Upload songs. Arrange them. Send ’em out to people. It’s not unlike making an actual mixtape, except that there are no tapes. And you can skip and jump about at will (which I try to do in public as often as possible.) I tried it out, […]

Thomas Newman Posts Restored

As promised on my 404 Page, I’ve restored the mp3’s to my Newman posts. I get a surprising amount of traffic from fans looking for info, including the occasional plea to re-post the tunes that I took down a year ago. Here’s the category. Just three posts. Check back later this week. I’ll post some […]

I’m Here. Now What?

Welcome back to Los Angeles, Me. I’ll be honest. It’s a bit shocking. I took eight months off and retreated to Santa Fe, New Mexico where I relaxed, got some work done, wrote two screenplays, wrote a novel, detoxed and slowed way, way down. I’m like one of those gym rats who’ve jumped off the […]

PT Gallery

This is just me, experimenting with the new Word Press gallery feature. It was a private post, so y’all didn’t have to see it, but it occurred to me that there’s just no such thing as too much PT Cruiser.

Gigabytes of Mu-ziq

Yes, this is my lowly first post since arriving in California. All I wanted to say is now that I’ve got my music consolidated onto one single drive, the total comes to 386 GB. Somehow, I thought it would be more than that. (brag, brag)
