2008-02-05 - 9:15 a.m. Happy Mega Giga Tuesday, particularly to Democrats Abroad* and readers in American Samoa! I am quite giddy. You? *My least favorite Gilbert & Sullivan musical These young lads, the Epochs, seem to have listened to their fair share of Radiohead...but their songs have a bit more heft and shape and dynamics. I like 'em. They are at Mercury Lounge next week, too. This contraption claims it can hook you up with streams of any song. It worked on some titles ("Man with the Lightbulb Head," "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini"), got confused on others ("Rush Hour," "Love Train," "Aquacade") and was totally stumped on everything else I tried. But still: good idea, fun distraction. Keep track of celestial events here. (Tomorrow, e.g., Mercury is at inferior conjunction.)
