Continuing yesterday's post (hey, I'm not above beating a dead horse), I just don't get Pitchfork's photo based concert review posts. The reviews are all well and good, I just think it's curious that the photos get the main billing when they are generally pants. The images they post are rarely more than passable and look like they were taken on a 3 year old Canon Powershot. Couldn't Pitchfork get a photographer with a decent set up to tag along with the reviewer and take some shots worthy of the bandwidth from mightiest indie rock news source in all the land?
For the record, I'm not trying to say that I'm Mr. Super Duper Blogger Photographer Extraordinaire. I take lots of photos with my camera(s) and have improved alot from the beginning of the year, but I will be the first person to say I have a LONG way to go before I start to get a big head about my photos. But if and when it happens, you'll be the first to know.
Yay! Yeserday was Celtics Media Day! The season tips off four short weeks from now. Even better, the Wiz open at home against the C's.
Hey, if it's October, it must mean the A's get the first game (10 o'clock in the a.m. on the West Coast) and the Yanks get the primetime slots. Whatevs. For the record, I'm pulling for Red Sox West The Dodgers.
A music blogger's personal manifesto. I have some thoughts on this whole thing that I've been meaning to put together, and hope to soon, as soon as I'm done beating dead horses.
Can you spot the error in Pitchfork's review of Mansun's Legacy: The Best of Mansun?
Not as egregious as the last time I caught them fucking up, but still...Does anyone read these things before they go up?
And not even 10 minutes ago I left a comment (which doesn't seem to want to show up - or maybe they won't post it *shrug*) saying "Sports bloggers ripping The Sports Guy is about as tired as MP3 bloggers ripping Pitchfork."
Interviewer: Has the live show changed much?
Liam Fookin' Gallagher: Not really. Five lads walk on stage AND FUCKING HAVE IT!
Brilliant.
Someone needs to get me a copy of this film ASAP.

A good friend of mine is interviewing Noelly G. in person today. This good friend of mine is lucky he is indeed a good friend of mine because I am insanely jealous (and that's an understatement). We traded quite a few emails last night and I sent over roughly 25 questions for The Chief, some of which have a very good chance of being asked today. I am all a-flutter with anticipation. And yes, I am a little girl. Thanks for asking.
Apparently Noel is doing phoners with some bloggers, and somehow I AM NOT ONE OF THEM. But I'm not bitter or anything. grumblegrumblegrumble. The good news is that my friend's interview will soon be podacastafied so everyone can hear it. In the meantime, I will have to console myself with my just acquired photo pass for Virgin Fest this weekend.
Can we get a show of hands of people bored to tears by Idolator. I believe Jen put it best when she said, "it reads like an MLB.com writer and an EW writer are attempting to write about music...oh, wait." Bo-ring.
Spiral Stairs on the Wowee Zowee reissue.
Zune = viral DRM.
Pics from Bansky's LA exhibit. Yeah, the one with the elephant.
