Cast of Thousands
How about this for a new tagline:
Information Leafblower, as seen in the Washington Post.
They called me "hip" and "cool"!
Hey, if it's in the Post, it must be true, right?
Here's what Siren looked like this year. Coolfer was there too.
The Sun Times reviews Pitchfork's Intonation Music Fest.
The Big Ticket has some Feist goodies for your downloading pleasure.
Here's a video for Bloc Party's Pioneers.
Bluestate is back at Saint Ex tomorrow. We're changing it up a bit this time around. Everyone is picking a musical theme and we're duking it out for supremacy in rotating 20 minute sets. Seeking Irony is doing her Nordic thing, DCSOB is going for a NYC v. DC theme, and I'll be representing Manchester UK. And it won't be all Smiths and Oasis, so come on down and help us determine the winner. Oh, did I mention we have a ton of free swag from v2 records?
And as always, don't forget the weekly bluestate giveaway contest.
Not wanting to be left out, I have two giveaway contests of my own to announce:
M.I.A. - To win a copy of the M.I.A. CD, an autographed poster, and "Galang" on 12" vinyl, send an email to leafblowergives at gmail dot com with the name of M.I.A.'s touring DJ.
Gorillaz - To win a prize pack containing "Feel Good Inc." vinyl, 7" picture vinyl, a DVD, stickers, poster, and copy of the comic book, all you have to do is email me at leafblowergives at gmail dot com and tell what baggy has been sings on the new Gorillaz single DARE.
Feel free to enter both contests, but you can only win one.

Huh. Fancy running into you on the web! I don't think I've ever seen you without a hat before. You may or may not remember me from a certain record store and radio station in a town called Greenville...
