“ Recently I picked up this hitchhiker in Baltimore and this kid started huffing glue! I said, ‘In the daytime?’ He said, ‘You want some?’ I’m like 61! What am I gonna do? Start huffing glue in Baltimore, in the middle of the day? Actually, I almost did. I thought, well, that’ll be interesting. I gave him a ride the whole way. ”

Sigur Ros

Apparently my non tumblr friends have a LAME taste in music (yes, I did buy Blackout, get over it) and no one wants to see Sigur Ros.

Is anyone going?

Duffy - I’m Scared

I was telling someone last night how much I love Duffy and how huge she is going to be here a la Wino. Someone: this is one of my favorite Duffy songs. More good ones to come…

Mark Ronson & Amy Winehouse - Valerie

Despite her many issues, I love Amy Winehouse. Her voice is unbelievable as is her artistry. I saw her twice, once before she was big in US (showcase @ Canal Room) and once after (Lollapalooza). Both times were fantastic. Afterall, aren’t all true artists troubled in one way or another? I hope she pulls through for another album soon. She and Mark are like the dream team.
