Is anyone else upset that the word Trio has 4 letters?

Was fooling around on You Tube today checking out some videos from a cool band called Elbow (you should check them out) They have a new album coming out soon, and are coming state side for the first time in many a year.

So anyway, I stumbled upon this video of a 4-year old drummer, yeah I said 4. It is a Polish kid named Igor Falecki, and he is 5 now, and appearently has his own jazz trio the Igor Falecki Trio. I've spent the last hour checking out different videos of this kid, he's amazing.

Oh Glorious Friday

What a shitty week.

Glad I got that one behind me, and a good weekend is just about to begin.

I wanted to share with you all one of the best places to hear new music. It is a little show called All Songs Considered on NPR. I stumbled on this one day about 2 years ago when my friend Caro gave me a bunch of new tunes to check out. I was liking one, and did a search on the ol' google, and they had recently been featured. I think I spent 4 hours a day that first week listening to the old archives, it's a good site.

Have a good weekend.

Really?

Yeah really.

I have been a neglectful writer lately. Not much to talk about really, been more in a live it phase rather than a talk about it phase. But I am entering a period where I need to keep mind occupied and writing is a fun way to pass time.

In my past month of living, I've done some cool things, learned some stuff. Had a real strong coincidence occur. Randomly thought about someone I hadn't seen or thought about in over a year, then the next day our paths crossed for a seemingly inconsequential moment, but yet it had a very poignant effect on my thoughts at that time.

I'm going to sign off for tonight. I will be posting more again for the foreseeable future, I can't promise everyday, but as much as I can.

I leave you know with a couple of cool things I have seen recently. Peace

Awesome Thom Yorke interview on NPR
