 Auf Der Maur | hey kids! its been too long! we are in the full june swing! and traffic has been amazing - in the first 6 days of june - i had more people than the whole months of jan and feb! keep it coming!
so much seems to be going on - its hard to keep track - i could write mountains of stuff all day long! i decided today to feature the debut solo album from bassist Melissa der auf maur simply titled auf der maur - many of you know - she was in hole with my lover courtney love this album totally crept on me - didnt even know she was doing on - but here it is - and its BRILLIANT - really - solidly produced - by melissa - and most songs were written by her! so i suggest you check her site out aufdermaur.com and buy the album - you wont be disappointed - who could be with lyrics like - | gonna let the lightning tuck me into my bed, electrified and cherry red... - lightning is my girl
i cant fake it my love, i need filling come on, i need it louder than bombs... - taste you
but ms. auf der maur does lose just a few points for leaving courtney out of the thanks section - wonder what she thinks of ms. love's antics - but a solid album - well done auf der maur - i will be seeing you when you play LA - should be a kick-ass show
so what else?
lines for the latest harry potter flick - have been wrapped around the block on hollywood blvd - for the chinese theater - this movie is going to makes lots o' money!
i have heard from numerous folks that the day after tomorrow is really good so i must check that out...
caught a pre-screening of DE-LOVELY - starring kevn kline, ashley judd - and broadway veteran jonathan pryce - a new movie based on the life of composer cole porter - told through a sort of stage show of his life - amazing it twas! and they have some great musical guest taking on porter songs including sheryl crow, alanis morrisette, elvis costello, diana krall (shes marrie to costello), and vivian green - kline was amazing as porter - and ashley judd (who my friend rick calls 'the poor mans charlize theron) shined! she was great! so i do recommend to check out de-lovely when it hits yr local theaters!
speaking of charlize - MONSTER just hit video stores - so we all must check out her award-winning albeit depressing performance as that crazy lady serial killer!
billy corgan apparently is now working for a radio station in chicago (WXRT) as a correspondent for the cubs - jeez louise - smashing pumpkings to this!?!? what gives billy??
pj harvey's latest cd uh huh her hits stores on tuesday - and its getting rave reviews just as i predicted after hearing the album - entertainment weekly gave it an A and called it a 'stark victory' - pj rocks!
ok im out for now - some new shows coming this week - so check back her for yr recommended (mandatory) popbytes selections!
ps - they are doing a joe schmo 2 - im thrilled since watching the first one - not many of you watched last season - and im going to make a huge campaign on popbytes to get everyone to tune into this hilarious faux reality show sendup! popbytes out! |
