Transmogrified
(Given up on Monday’s reference? Mr. Barkis from David Copperfield) The White Rabbits are coming to Phoenix this Friday! I was thrilled when I found out: The White Rabbits’ second album, It’s Frightening is an absolute favorite of mine. “Percussion Gun” — “Lionesse” — “The Lady Vanishes” — the whole album is banging drums, thrumming…

Monday News
Today’s headlines– Live Performance of “Bulldozer” Discovered! “Bulldozer” is perhaps my favorite song on Cold War Kids’ latest album. Piano that tears your heart in two, vocals that make you want to bawl your eyes out–what is not to love? Sadly, I first heard this song live, which made the cotton-bandaged version on the album…

Velvet, not Violet
I was about to add a link to “Bend and Break” as an alert to my latest Depressing Music Kick, got as far as YouTube, and realized I’d already done that entry. I am nothing if not predictable. Not to worry–I have lots of depressing music! http://videoplayer.vevo.com/embed/Embedded?videoId=GB1411000169&playlist=false&autoplay=0&playerId=62FF0A5C-0D9E-4AC1-AF04-1D9E97EE3961&playerType=embedded&env=0&cultureName=en-US&cultureIsRTL=False

The Suburbs
Here we are, stumbling through another Monday morning. One of those mornings where one’s brain is not quite ready to function when the alarm goes off, and wants to be rawther grumpy as a result. I made the mistake of choosing The Suburbs as my bus-ride music. It is a wonderful album, from a talented…

Update
1. No pictures (mis apologias). I don’t want to attempt rigging a 2nd camera to this computer, esp. just for another few days. And the iSight camera captures a most unappealing panorama of the most cluttered part of my room. 2. According to the Fed Ex oder tracker, my new computer is on the delivery…

Dark Music for Dark Nights
Happy Halloween! Stella is barking with the force of a thousand Great Danes at small bands of smaller children who, quite clearly, are planning to invade our home, las Hermanitas are costuming for a party and door-answering, and I am planning on sitting down for a night of my favorite fall music and some knitting.…
