i think its a good sign
ok. so im an idiot. i just opened my vent and suddenly my room is habitable
HURR!
generally my post titles are more or less nosensical, at least as much so as the post themselves
id like to let you all know this title has nothing at all to do with this post but is in reference to something i just realized has happened
and its funny and pretty awesome
but also fucking filthy so im not sharing any details
unless...you know...
naw
wow i stepped away again
someone turned off the ac and now its hot as fuck again
but im dtunk again so who really gives a fuck
some new radiohead
news this week is that Thom will have an un-solo release coming out in July on XL
Ftom W.A.S.T.E.
-
this is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that i have not told you about.
its called The Eraser.
nigel produced & arranged it .
i wrote and played it.
the elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished & i have been itching to do something like this for ages.
it was fun and quick to do.
inevitably it is more beats & electronics.
but its songs.
stanley did the cover.
yes its a record!
no its not a radiohead record.
as you know the band are now touring and writing new stuff and getting to a good space so i want no crap about me being a traitor or whatever splitting up blah blah...
this was all done with their blessing. and i don't wanna hear that word solo. doesnt sound right.
ok then thats that.
i think its out in july and im pretty certain XL are going to put it out.
love thom

today and tomorrow, music saves
Black Keys singer/guitarist Dan Auberach has been quoted as saying that the music of Junior Kimbrough changed his life. Its evident in everything the keys have done but as if to drive the point home, they've released the Chulahoma EP, a collection of six Kimbrough covers.
Its rockin
ep of the year thus far.
I was starting to type a lot but i just deleted it all because it didnt make sense
the gist is... I really like the black keys and it may turn out that they've changed my life
OMGWTFBBQ!
i may as well go grab a beer if im not going to be coherant anyway

ferromagnet nostalgic
had another problem with dreamhost. this one not at all my fault. I figured out how to fix it myself and my only real complaint is that they failed to respond to my support request in the six hours before i remembered to withdraw the ticket.
fyi... if you use dreamhost and ever get a "bad_httpd_conf" error, in the user cp goto manage domains -> edit, then change settings without altering anything
takes a second but forces the apache config to regnerate and clears up whatever issue there was
when there was a DMCA issue i had responses in minutes, so im not neccesarily unhappy with their customer service. but... i've heard tons of horror stories so hopefully this kind of thing doesnt become common
The other night i was reminiscing over some of the shitty music i used to listen to. I brought up Jodeci, someone else mentioned Ralph Tresvant, and then i remembered Johnny Gill. These were the artists who recorded some of the first albums I ever owned, all on cassette tape.
awesome shit, cassette tapes. I used to just record hours of radio and then re-record the songs i liked
because i was cheap and stole music even then
it was the early nineties
this is what was blasting through my walkman
and how awesome were those things! changed the world, they did
Johnny Gill - S/T (1990)
My favorite New Edition alumnus. I wish i was born ten years earlier and had lost my virignity to this album, rather than the oh so romantic ambient noise of a bowling alley parking lot.
he did not pick up the spare
by the sound of it, Johnny would have
Rub You the Right Way
My My My
Salt N Pepa - Blacks Magic (1990)
I was seven years old and this had one of those new fangled parental advisory icons on it. The guy at Wherehouse didnt seem to notice either of these facts. My parents didnt seem to notice either.
My brother did contsantly make fun of me for saying "pepper" like the little white girl i was.
Lets Talk About Sex
Amg Grant - Heart in Motion (1991)
did i mention i was a little white girl? Baby, Baby was one of my favorite songs for a couple years.
this was during Grant's "pop" period. shes back to christian music now, im back to not listening to her.
Baby Baby is still a great song
Baby Baby
Every Heartbeat
Color Me Badd - C.M.B. (1991)
I remember staying up late to catch these guys on Arsenio and swoon. Cheesy boy bands go way back, see. I use I Wanna Sex You Up on mixtapes of a particular kind to this day
I Adore Mi Amore
I Wanna Sex You Up
Technotronic - Pump Up The Jam (1989)
I have a second cousin who lived with us while she attended UCI. She used to put this on and have me dance for her friends. There was no coaxing or cajoling needed. I fucking love to shake my ass and always have.
Pump Up the Jam
Hi-Five - S/T (1992)
There was a slew of these kinds of acts in the early nineties. Its always the same. Someone has some success, in this case New Edition and Boyz II Men, and every label rushes to scoop up anyone similar and emulate. So we got Bel Biv Devoe, ABC, an endless list of soloists, and these guys. I played this tape endlessly until i lent it to my cousin during a long drive to Texas and never got it back. That bastard.
I Can't Wait Another Minute
I Like The Way
Mint Condition - Meant to be Mint (1991)
File Mint Condition under that same catagory. Though their sound was actually more similar to Jodeci, a little more New Jack i guess.
Don't tell her, but i used to sing this to my little sister all the time. Babies are the only ones who dont tell me to shut up.
You're Breaking My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)
thats about it. ive uploaded more but im tired of typing and theres a mic in my face i need to turn on already.
Jurrasic 5 has a new album coming out on my birthday. last year all i had to look forward to was Mr. A-Z
this year is already shaping up to be a bit more exciting.
they're streaming 3 tracks on their myspace. heres one of them
Work It Out Feat. Dave Matthews
I like it. looks like they're seeking a little more radio play with this one
heres a little more ryan in case the last couple posts werent enough
In My Time of Need
the answer to all these questions is no
you know whats awesome? crying so long and hard your chest and shoulders ache

OK. [So maybe I lost my head there for a second.] I always have the best intentions when it comes to playing music and I suppose I get lost sometimes along the way. The last thing I want to do is cheat anybody out of anything. I am just trying to connect on some sort of level that means as much to me as it does you. And while you're paying, I'm playing and we both have to, ya know, "deal" . I think sometimes I want to make everybody feel like they are at home in the venue and not to panic or freak out and let things take shape because I AM freaking out a little. I have a bit of stage fright but I promise you this I have not and did not take to the stage drunk on the european or the U.S. tour. It's impossible. I can't function playing guitar drunk. My wrist won't work that way. I learned that lesson. This is TRUE. I have A (one) glass of wine on my way into the wings and two or three thousand cigarettes before. I wait until my hands stop shaking and I dive in. Sometimes you guys are a tough lot to charm but I so want to communicate this strange thing I have in writing and playing this music that I'm willing to forego being terrified enough to get out there and see what I am capable of. It's all I know. I have been alone trying this since I was 15 and I am no different now than I was then. At least in the way I see myself not trying to do anything but be funny, be real, be anything but boring. I know I lose some of the audience in the slapschitck parts but whatever. There are plenty of canned food artists out there for them. I want to be in the moment and I want to take chances and I want to see if I can find that magic moment even I didn't know was possible. That leads to some pretty embarasssing dead ends. But once in awhile, goddamn if I can't feel my own heart beat for a second and some of that pain goes away and I am just in the zone. In the place I was the first time I felt comfortable in my own skin, playing and singing and sharing something that was gone as soon as the music stopped.
So these risks, these shows, or rather, tours without the same set list every night esp. the solo ones, they really push the envelope but I dont feel like Ill grow or youll get anything but sterile crap unless I try and take it further. And listen, I am. I am trying my ass off.
So If I disappointed some of you, I am so sorry. That lets me down too. And if I took a few songs further out, maybe put a few smiles on a few faces or made somebody move along to the story, then I am glad. The rabbit doesnt always come out of the hat unfortunately but one day when we are far from grandmas backyard and theres not a bedsheet for a curtain and I actually get my own cape, maybe it will ALWAYS be magic.
Until then, Im just human, and I have my faults. Im a bit nervous at solo shows and I am getting alittle better as I go. Maybe I talk a bit too much when Im nervous but its nerves not drinks that makes me want to feel like there isnjt any reason to be scared. And as far as the green goes, well, ask Bill Hicks about that one. Thats just self respect.
I am humbled by your loyalty and hurt when you feel let down but I have nothing but respect for those that have taken the ride with me.
I regret my freakout. I fully intend to take my website back and own it privately and stream shows when I can and print set lists so people can check in and see whats happening out there on the road.
I will say this.
There were some out of hand things said about those shows in certain publications that were outright lies. The setlists and UNION CURFEWS prevent me from playing any later than they allow without house lights coming up in theaters. But you get to sit down and be cozy and nobody wants to stand for an hour and a half at a solo show with some sad weird bastard moaning about this and whinging about that in c minor. I will print the set lists , the time I hit stage, and the time I left stage for each of the last four shows for everyone to see for themselves. Prehaps I will print the unclaimed comp tickets from two of the shows where I got flamed and yet they could not mention one song or album of which I played a song from.
Either way I am taking accountability for my part of this exchange, this live solo show setting.
It would be nice to see local journalists do the same and not do articles on what my hair looks like or who choose to fuck which is none of their buisness. The lack of writing about the music at my shows matches the time it takes me to start a fucking song it seems. lose lose if you ask me. dont ask them. they dont got to like anything for a living. i dont blame them reaqlly. i confound myself on a daily basis. you should see some of the shit i manage the put into my eggs. not even omlettes. just mashed eggs.
With all due respect, I appreciate everyone who took their chances, took their seats, and came along for the ride.
Im trying but Im not always good and never advertise anything but my flaws./ Im just looking for the beauty in them and in all this I guess.
Thank You for Participating and I hope to look back one day and be nothing but proud, proud and on top of a martini cloud watching the fireworks.
Yours Truly,
Ryan.
love u guys and hope the salad days of summer cqarry you someplace pretty and safe on a blueberry breeze.
stay sweet.
---------------------------------------------------------
hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
but at the same time the shit makes me really sad. while its beyond presumptious of adams to include himself in a list like the one he did, it is true that all too often the best artists are fucking nuts and beyond self destructive.
sad
the story of how i came to be a fan of his is far more interesting than others ive told.
near the end of the summer of 2002 i went to see a Ben Kweller show at the Roxy here in Los Angeles. I happened to have an extra ticket because i had bought two and then been given two by ATO, but only found one other person to go after finding out I'd have four. The show was sold out because BK is all sorts of awesome. As i was turning away from the ticket window i noticed a father and his young son standing at the curb looking sad. Turns out they'd seen Ben on Leno or something the night before and had come out hoping thered be tickets available. I gave them my extra and wished them luck in finding one more. An hour or so later I was sitting on the edge of the stage waiting for the show to start when the guy comes toward me with a big smile on his face saying theyd found someone looking to sell just one ticket! He thanked me profusely and then asked me to wait just one second, he wanted to give me something. I told him over and over a drink would be fine (I was 19 and couldnt buy my own, or so i thought) but he insisted on running out to his car. He came back with three burned cds. His son protested. Dad told him to shut up, they could burn another copy of each.
I thanked him and glanced at what hed handed me. I only recognized one name. They were copies of Ryan Adams - Gold, Beulah - The Coast is Never Clear, and Chris Isaak - Greatest Hits.
If i could see that guy now id give him a giant bear hug. When I have kids I imagine things being quite similar.
Besides Ryan and Beulah, I also "discovered" My Morning Jacket that night. They opened and were amazing.
At the after party I ordered drinks at a bar for the first time and bumped into Kirsten Dunst while dancing
That was an awesome night.
So anyway... I listened to Gold the next day and loved it. Not immediately. I recognized New York, New York from its video being played incessently, but it took some growing. Then i listened to Heartbreaker, and I was done. This giant whiny bastard tool bag had won me over.
heres hoping he dosent kill himself via drug overdose anytime soon

OK. [So maybe I lost my head there for a second.] I always have the best intentions when it comes to playing music and I suppose I get lost sometimes along the way. The last thing I want to do is cheat anybody out of anything. I am just trying to connect on some sort of level that means as much to me as it does you. And while you're paying, I'm playing and we both have to, ya know, "deal" . I think sometimes I want to make everybody feel like they are at home in the venue and not to panic or freak out and let things take shape because I AM freaking out a little. I have a bit of stage fright but I promise you this I have not and did not take to the stage drunk on the european or the U.S. tour. It's impossible. I can't function playing guitar drunk. My wrist won't work that way. I learned that lesson. This is TRUE. I have A (one) glass of wine on my way into the wings and two or three thousand cigarettes before. I wait until my hands stop shaking and I dive in. Sometimes you guys are a tough lot to charm but I so want to communicate this strange thing I have in writing and playing this music that I'm willing to forego being terrified enough to get out there and see what I am capable of. It's all I know. I have been alone trying this since I was 15 and I am no different now than I was then. At least in the way I see myself not trying to do anything but be funny, be real, be anything but boring. I know I lose some of the audience in the slapschitck parts but whatever. There are plenty of canned food artists out there for them. I want to be in the moment and I want to take chances and I want to see if I can find that magic moment even I didn't know was possible. That leads to some pretty embarasssing dead ends. But once in awhile, goddamn if I can't feel my own heart beat for a second and some of that pain goes away and I am just in the zone. In the place I was the first time I felt comfortable in my own skin, playing and singing and sharing something that was gone as soon as the music stopped.
So these risks, these shows, or rather, tours without the same set list every night esp. the solo ones, they really push the envelope but I dont feel like Ill grow or youll get anything but sterile crap unless I try and take it further. And listen, I am. I am trying my ass off.
So If I disappointed some of you, I am so sorry. That lets me down too. And if I took a few songs further out, maybe put a few smiles on a few faces or made somebody move along to the story, then I am glad. The rabbit doesnt always come out of the hat unfortunately but one day when we are far from grandmas backyard and theres not a bedsheet for a curtain and I actually get my own cape, maybe it will ALWAYS be magic.
Until then, Im just human, and I have my faults. Im a bit nervous at solo shows and I am getting alittle better as I go. Maybe I talk a bit too much when Im nervous but its nerves not drinks that makes me want to feel like there isnjt any reason to be scared. And as far as the green goes, well, ask Bill Hicks about that one. Thats just self respect.
I am humbled by your loyalty and hurt when you feel let down but I have nothing but respect for those that have taken the ride with me.
I regret my freakout. I fully intend to take my website back and own it privately and stream shows when I can and print set lists so people can check in and see whats happening out there on the road.
I will say this.
There were some out of hand things said about those shows in certain publications that were outright lies. The setlists and UNION CURFEWS prevent me from playing any later than they allow without house lights coming up in theaters. But you get to sit down and be cozy and nobody wants to stand for an hour and a half at a solo show with some sad weird bastard moaning about this and whinging about that in c minor. I will print the set lists , the time I hit stage, and the time I left stage for each of the last four shows for everyone to see for themselves. Prehaps I will print the unclaimed comp tickets from two of the shows where I got flamed and yet they could not mention one song or album of which I played a song from.
Either way I am taking accountability for my part of this exchange, this live solo show setting.
It would be nice to see local journalists do the same and not do articles on what my hair looks like or who choose to fuck which is none of their buisness. The lack of writing about the music at my shows matches the time it takes me to start a fucking song it seems. lose lose if you ask me. dont ask them. they dont got to like anything for a living. i dont blame them reaqlly. i confound myself on a daily basis. you should see some of the shit i manage the put into my eggs. not even omlettes. just mashed eggs.
With all due respect, I appreciate everyone who took their chances, took their seats, and came along for the ride.
Im trying but Im not always good and never advertise anything but my flaws./ Im just looking for the beauty in them and in all this I guess.
Thank You for Participating and I hope to look back one day and be nothing but proud, proud and on top of a martini cloud watching the fireworks.
Yours Truly,
Ryan.
love u guys and hope the salad days of summer cqarry you someplace pretty and safe on a blueberry breeze.
stay sweet.

hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
but at the same time the shit makes me really sad. while its beyond presumptious of adams to include himself in a list like the one he did, it is true that all too often the best artists are fucking nuts and beyond self destructive.

If words could make wishes come true
quick message from our sponsors to kick things off this afternoon
i added a little banner over there for emusic. yes, if you click it and sign up for the trial i get money.
Emusic is my favorite of the legal msuic download services right now for the simple reason that their product contains no DRM. You can put it anywhere play it anywhere share with anyone. In fact a few of the tracks Im sharing today came from emusic. Another thing is that unlike shitty itunes, emusic gives you tracks that have been encoded with the higher quality lame aps. Theyve got loads of other selling points but those are the two that most appeal to me. Check them out if you're conscience has been weighing on you but you dont have that hot little indie record store in town that really deserves your money.
and dont tell anyone i told you but multiply that 50 free mp3s by however many credit cards you have
woohoo!
another neat music related business to check out...
I became a member of LaLa about a week ago. Some geniuses up north, where they seem to have a monopoly on those, got together and started a service for people to trade their old cds. heres a bit on who and what they are from their site.
..."'la la' is the first online music store where music fans can trade CDs they own for CDs they want for $1 a CD. 'la la' also offers new full length albums and will sell digital album downloads, no singles. With immense admiration and gratitude to musicians, 'la la' is the first to introduce payments to musicians based on the trade of used recordings. 'la la' is based in beautiful Palo Alto, California."...
They're still in beta testing so theyve not implemented all the features and are invite only at this point. Maybe they'll spruce up that blurb once they really get going.
I've already received seven albums and shipped off eight. Its been an excellent way to find music that ive had trouble locating online.
for instance, im expecting Sex Is For Making Babies by God Is My Co-Pilot any day now
Ive been looking for anything and everything from God is my Co-Pilot for months!
Id highly reccomend cruising over there and adding your email to the list of hopeful invitees
Id also highly reccomend checking out AJ Croce. Son of the late great Jim, AJs been all too quietly doing his thing for going on fifteen years. He started out as a bit of bluesman but has more recently been churning out some high quality singer songwriter type stuff. His latest, Cantos (which i downloaded via emusic) features a spot on cover of Maybe I'm Amazed that had my mom asking me to burn her that Paul McCartney cd i ws listening to.
I first started listening to AJ when his 2004 release Adrian James Croce was heavy in rotation on San Diego's KPRI. They played the shit out of that record for a couple months and I was hooked. I hadnt really listened to Jim Croce before then, but now hes one of my favorites. Its great to see such talent from one generation to the next, not just some hack trying to trade on the family name.
