We've all seen the ad. I actually see it a few times a day. It's for the X10 wireless webcam. Perfect for home security. (But with all the hot models on the site we all know what's really for) Anyhow. You can now block the ad! Check out this link. Weird eh.

That was from Evhead. So is this funky t-shirt company called Threadless.

Well we got to see Melissa Ferrick today at The Rex. She was there with Edie Carey and someone else whose name I can't remember but whose music I liked. The concert was great. It was very impromptu, no set list, requests from the crowd, and banter. It was the way 'concerts' should be. So I'll definitely be adding Melissa to my list of favorite artists after seeing her live. I might even add her blog to my list. How cool is that? Langeman will be pleased to her that she uses GreyMatter.

Would you like Melissa Ferrick? Well she's kind of like Ani but less political but more queer. See her blog entry about seperatist festivals. Kinda scary. I didn't even know that there was a seperatist movement!

As with all concerts there was some sketch. The sketch involved a very drunk fan who missed her seat on a few occasions and actually lay down on the floor of the bar. Note. The concert was at 7pm. This wasn't no late show :).

After Melissa+friends we went to The Colored Stone and saw someone who was billed as a Dar Williams but was really for an older crowd. I.e. 40 year olds. Then we saw this brit band who the girls dubbed as Radiohead grrls or something like that. Anyhow, they were too Radiohead for me. Next it was a time for a sushi break.

Nat then bailed and Maeve and I went to The Oasis to catch Marni Levitt.

Why all the concerts? Because it's North by North East.

Now I've been looking into syndication via RSS and think that it'd be really great if artists would adopt it so I could keep up with all the news and tour dates instead of signing up for a million different mailing lists..
