Verse and Chorus

Jory — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 04:39:12 +0000

Here is a new project to write some songs. I’ll write some verses without a chorus and send that to MC. He’ll write the chorus. I’ll write a chorus with no verses and send that so he can add some verses. And vice versa. We’ll post them here.

JF verse + MC chorus = song 1
JF chorus + MC verse = song 2
MC verse + JF chorus = song 3
MC chorus + JF verse = song 4

4 news songs! An EP! The new Lennon and McCartney - but different in that I don’t expect these to be of the same quality of those songs. Anyway, new songs.

Here are the latest installments in a series - How do you collect music (or something like that). These are from WWDC08 and iPhoneDevCamp. I have been slow to publish these but I enjoy doing this and want to make this audio available. Enjoy.

I am re-posting these interviews from SXSW 2008, where I asked attendees about there music collecting habits.

There seems to be a general consensus among the people I spoke with. If you paid for the song in question on vinyl, cassette, or any other format, you are entitled to a ‘un-paid-for’ digital copy without moral consequence. Most feel that while transferring copies Peer to Peer is probably illegal, to do so when you just want to discover new music - or expose others to new music - is a good thing.

Bánh mì está aquí

Jory — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 05:57:14 +0000

There’s construction work going on in Atwater Village this past week in the space next to Viet Noodle Bar (3313 Glendale Blvd.) I’m told (and I hope the story is true) is that the Viet Noodle Bar is expanding to open a Bánh mì sandwich shop here.

Bahn mi if you have never tried one, is a great culinary invention. KP’s Vietnamese American Deli on Hyperion made these Vietnamese sandwiches but closed down last year. KP’s were pretty good. I have higher hopes for this place based on the Pho next door.

Blogging from my iPhone

Jory — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 04:40:02 +0000

I just downloaded the new Wordpress app for iPhone. I expect this will be a watershed moment in my blogging career. Or not.

I expect the next moment like this to be - I don’t know, Cut and Paste? As I write this from my phone it occurs to me what it was to like to write before word processors, BEFORE cut and paste. Maybe I will just go slower.

Mike Carroll - Good Work.

Good work, Mr. Carroll!

When I was in 6th grade we scrubbed our trucks against the curb by hand in an effort to create an illusion of ‘gnarly grind skillz’. This is what the real thing looks like.

I am happy to say I saw this evidence on the curb first hand on Fairfax Avenue yesterday.

Mike detects curb accretion here. No parking in the Red Zone. The Red Zone is for grinding only!
