A few things from 30k feet

I made you a mix for Summerchime, it was originally called Hot In The Shitty but I think the file hosting sites flagged it as some sort of unsavory video. I'll let you draw your own image...

Night Of The Living Dyke is reanimating in BKLYN this summer... stay tuned, and don't make plans for July 17th after work. I need you for happy hour.

I think I should revive my summertime clothes circa 1991, whadda ya think?

Stars & Stripes 4EVA!

Have a safe & happy 4th of July! Here is a mix I made for you in study hall. I promise, there is not one MJ song on here. Trust.

Rrrrrrrradio Bronado is back! I sat down with DJ Buttafucco in the nine double oh one three last night to talk riots on the streets of Los Angeles, riots on the streets of Iran, rapey gays, the summer of love, recessionistas, covers & a very special message to the Mormon church. What better way to kick off the best summer EVER!

Spring Break Is OVAH!

So like, here is the problem with in-flight wifi. If I thought I had attention deficit problems before I could always count on the sanctity of a flight between New York and Los Angeles to preclude my obsession with the Internet. Not anymore. I have a deadline in the morning, we're literally 333 miles from LA somewhere south of Vegas and I'm not even half-way there.

HOWEVER! Because I have access to the Internet guess what I did for the past three hours... that's right... music shizz.

Here is the soundtrack from the void.

Marmoset - Peach Cobbler
Papercuts - Future Primitive
DNTEL - Roll On (Feat. Jenny Lewis)
Headess Heroes - Nobody's Baby, Now (Nick Cave cover)
Grizzly Bear - Owner Of A Lonely Heart (Yes cover)
Cale Parks - Every Week Ends
Blur - Sweet Song
Division Day - Every Shining Time You Arrive (Sunny Day Real Estate cover)
Bat For Lashes - Pearl's Dream
Black Moth Super Rainbow - Born On A Day The Sun Didn't Rise

We start shooting on Thursday. Spring break is ovah.

Love,
Raimy
