RADNESS

I love pop music (I am often called out for listening to TLC's first album or Britney on my Adium/iChat.  Someday I will write a long blog dissecting Britney's videography).  I don't dig the Jonas Brothers, but THIS IS AWESOME!  7 year old Wizzle would have died to find NKOTB at the end of a historical scavenger hunt.

Jordan's manager actually wanted to meet with Amanda for some reason a few years ago (yay Boston).  Sadly, I still kinda freaked with giddiness :)

They're called The Nuts and just had a tournament in Ireland.  Jesse is sporting the blue tights.

Hipster Babies

Does anyone have any suggestions for Miss Merch as to where one can obtain reasonably priced, not hideous baby clothes?

Women In Entertainment Google Group

Hi All!

For the past few years, there has been a badass Women in Music Google Group, founded by the fabulous Evange.  Evange is taking the group to the next level, which you can find more about by emailing here: Membership@womeninmusic.org

However, a few friends and I started a Women in Entertainment Google Group to keep the free contact aspect/information flow of the Women In Music list alive. Since the WIM Google Group has expired, I wanted to get this one up and kicking in the New Year. 

I have always found the WIM list a huge resource, and feel that we can help each other out even more than ever since many folks are changing jobs/starting their own thing/finding a new path.

Please sign up and encourage other to do so:

Much Love,

Two of my Favorite Things

NYC and Oasis
Oasis - Dig Out Your Soul In The Streets

Unfortunately, the band was supposed to play T5 that night (omg), but cancelled due to this douchebag (start at 1:20):

But, team AFP banded together and shot the video for "Oasis" that week regardless.  Aaaand, there's always THIS beautiful track that can be found on my (never updated) Myspace page.

Thanks T-Dogg! and Brett and Rob.

NIN is giving away 400 gigs of concert footage.  Rad on so many levels.

Also, after seeing this, I'm convinced Noah should bring NIN on True Colors.  So many of my gay male friends LOVE LOVE LOVE NIN (and tori amos, a t-dogg ex).

Trent Reznor Interview, 12.13.08
Uploaded by trentisthenewpink

Of ALL the press requests NIN most likely gets, I love that an interview with this blog was granted.  Bonus points for Brett being namechecked and Trent reading Outliers.

AFP in HD

Thanks Vimeo!  Hopefully Warners doesn't come after you too.

What do you [Earthlings] call it, 'The Google?'

i'd imbed this clip, but fox ain't so into that, which is fine, because i don't want their creepiness anywhere near me.

NYC Home

being present in New York is home.  plain and simple.

from the second i boarded the plane to the girl i heard a few feet in front of me @ LGA say to the cabbie she was headed to wburg, this is home. i split a cab with said girl, who went to DSHA with Emily Stapleton.  Yay.  I love that EmilyS and JaneE went to Harvard.  What a wonderful thing to do with one's swimming talent.  Anyway, Melissa was psyched to be home to Brooklyn and have more control over her food sources.  I was just psyched to be home.

Shortly after walking into Bedford&9thLand, Anthony texted.  What a beautiful London/Boston friend to have in town here in BrooklynLand upon my return.

Quickly, my new roommates are great and i have now commented to multiple people that i haven't lived with straight guys since college (thought that was fun too!).  it's funny.  They're straight guys who Get It thought, don't worry.

NYE Rocked.  Our VIP Pre-Party in Wburg @ Paige's was the shit and AP's Bowery performance that followed was sick.  Yay.  I am so F-ing pumped for Whitesmith 2009.  Double Yay.

Love,

Emily White xo
