Here’s a couple of quick items on the news that sounded interesting .

It’s Complicated.

The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers published  that they have been using Facebook for evidence at divorce courts. It is also named one of the top causes of relationship troubles. So be careful who you friend next time. And never ask for pictures.

Seriously, just turn the light off and leave.

So. You might have heard about Turn off the Dark. The super expensive musical featuring music from The Edge (of U2 fame) that tells the story of Spiderman. You might have also heard about the terrible preview season, and the plethora of stuntmen injured. Well, today NY1 reported that the director Julie Tamor (yes, Lion King’s Julie Tamor) is leaving the project, leaving many Broadwayheads scratching their heads. And also, many claiming this is the biggest failure in entertainment history.

Step 5. Acceptance

Charlie Sheen finally said something that makes sense.  In an interview with Life & Style Magazine (which proofs that he will do anything for a quick buck) the man of the hour admitted he is” loosing his mind” and that he” really needs help”.

Looks like someone drank too much tiger blood.

So here, I saved your evening conversation. Don’t forget to say hello first.

5. Bon Iver- Babys.

Best when  listened in - The middle of the woods, or your local park, next to the kids throwing sticks at each other.

4. Gorillaz – Hong Kong

Best when listened in- Your local Chinatown. Or that Chinese restaurant you know full of porcelain cats that wave at you.

(I put in the live version because there is no official video, and most of the fan videos are pretty boring)

3.Pixes – Where is my mind

(Because at the times the only destination you need to  reach is closer than what you think.)

Best when listened in- An empty building watching all the other building around you explode while questioning your existence and your survival as you shot yourself in the throat holding hands with Helena Bonham Carter.


2. The Beatles – Ticket to Ride

(What, you tought I was going to do a list without any Beatles song? Pweease!)

Best listened when – Sitting at the airport lounge hearing that your flight has been delayed due to heavy rain in your destination while looking at your significant other bitching and moaning to the girl at the desk pointing at the clock. Or while waiting for the bus.


1. Train Kept Rolling-Supposedly Aerosmith, but it has been covered like a gazillion times so who knows.

Best when listened in – …a train. Duh.

How come Trains don’t get any love anymore?

Hello,  First of all. How are you? Missed me? I did. Your side of the bed was really cold.

This week I am putting a spotlist on perhaps my second favorite band (after The Beatles), which is Tv on The Radio.

So follow me, after the jump, there is cookies and shit.
