Death By Sexy...

The Eagles of Death Metal are playing The Ascott Room at the Quest on Saturday June 3rd! Who's going? Think I ain't?!

Played like a fu*kin Piano....

Well, you can laugh at me if you want to, but I'm secretly kind of digging myspace. Just when I thought it was stupid, I find out almost the whole old school farm crew is on there. People I still see and people I haven't seen forever like doostin and Lewerse. Also found people I knew from Paisley Park back in the day and the owner of my favorite record label made me his friend. So for now i'lll be updating here and there.

Check me out on myspace

I don't know what it is about The Eagles of Death Metal, but whenever I play their albums I feel like a big baddass. The new album, "Death By Sexy" is great. Loved seeing them perform "I want you so hard" on Jay Leno Thursday night! The lead singer cracks me up.

I found out Graham Johnson has a myspace page. I found it too. He must be doing backflips that p.j. is on snl tonight.

Whatever happened to the Sleepy Brown album?

Went to Mayslacks' last night and saw one of the worst bands ever called Pop Bang. The lady at the bar reminded me of peets mom by saying "They're kinda poppy". Me and the Bird went out on the dancefloor and all of the sudden the band starts and its....a matchbox 20 cover? Huh? Pretty f+ckin wack!

Dirty Rotten Scoundrel And My Name Is Jeru....

Just so you know I am not 14 years old, but I did open a myspace account. I did it because a friend of mine told me to find her on there to get a hold of her when I recently ran into her. So I opened one and ended up getting a hold of her. Well myspace is full of people trying to "hook up", it actually has some good things to it. A lot of bands have myspace sites. I did some searching and found out that the owner of one of my favorite record labels, Barely Breaking Even, has his own myspace site. I went to his site and sent him a message about the lack of funk in Minneapolis clubs and he sent me a nice email back the next day explaining how I could go about having funk nights at clubs here like they do in England. And he talked about how he started the label for love of funk, jazz, and soul music and he doesn't even have an office. I haven't decided if I'm going to continue to update my myspace site yet, so for now you'll have to do some heavy searching on there if you want to see it. It's pretty basic and lame right now so it's nothing special anyway.

My roomate Natz gave me a copy of the Lucero album "the Attic Tapes". Stuff they recorded on a 4 track. Must be old demos or something. Very good stuff! "Diamond State Heartbreak" is my favorite.

Prince's website is saying "Fury" is the next single off "3121" and a video is coming soon. Even though I dig the song, I'll probably see the video a couple times on Vh1's Jump Start and never hear it on the radio just like "Black Sweat". I still don't understand why "Black Sweat" doesn't get played in clubs around here or on the radio. You can't tell me if Pharell did the same song it be on mtv and kdwb every 30 seconds.

Had the first lawn dart tourney of the year last Friday. Had a blast! Also was lucky enough to get invited to my friend April's parents wedding reception. Congratulations to them!

No plans for this weekend as of yet.

Now spinning....

"Speak yo clout" Gangstarr f/Jeru Tha Damaja
"Fake" Alexander O'Neal
"Wicky Wacky" The Fatback Band (Thanks to April)
"I Shouldn't Have Done It" Slick Rick
"Twocanwin" Jay Dilla (Jay Dee)

This is from the day I hung out with my best friends from work for the first time. Also, the luckiest day of my life. From left to right, Angela, Derek, Timmy, and me. It's interesting to hang out with people outside of work. I found out these three were pretty fun and crazy. It also seemed to make us better friends in the workplace. We all decided we'd have to do it again another time.
