Bedouin Soundclash @ Knitting Factory
Bedouin Soundclash @ Knitting Factory
For Rob’s birthday party, we went out in Tribeca and then saw Bedouin Soundclash play the Knitting Factory. I had never heard of them before about a week ago, but I was really impressed by their show. They are reggae-ish, with a little punk in there. Their sound, […]
The Hold Steady
Saw the Hold Steady tonight at 7 WTC as part of the Downtown Music festival. It was an excellent show. The lead singer really looked incredibly happy the whole time. It’s been awhile since I saw a band where I knew more than half the songs they were playing, so this was […]
The essence of Awesomeness
To air is human. To air guitar, divine.

Update
By “tomorrow” I apparently meant next week. Anyway, this is what went down: Cll Phn Lckn […]
Snagu at MTVu’s Woodies Awards
Snagu, the camera phone scavenger hunt that I created with three other students at ITP, was featured at MTVu’s Woodie Awards a few weeks ago. We created a special Woodies-themed Snagu game and the top players got to go to the Woodies and play it live, with all-access stage passes.
Their pictures have […]
Shooting Pool at the Century Club
Alternate title: “Beating Kottke at Pool”
I had the occasion last night to attend Steven Johnson’s book party for The Ghost Map at the Century Club in midtown. The Century Club (no not that century club) is a private club, founded in 1847, for authors and artists, with a magnificent downstairs Gentleman’s Room and an […]
