"Good Intentions" - Toad the Wet Sprocket

We didn't make it to New York City today for Howard Dean's rally in Bryant Park tonight, alas. Mike is enjoying the festivities close to the stage according to the IM messages he sent me a few minutes ago. Apparently we should look for the red Philly for Dean banner stage left about ...

Rose Polenzani’s New Tune and Club Passim’s Cutting Edge of the Campfire Festival
Rose Polenzani recorded "Girl", a new song on her 4-track, and shared it for download in the listening room of her website. It's a fun little tune that is a departure from her usual style of folk+rock. It's definately more rock than folk. Good stuff!
Rose has several shows with Lorna Hunt during ...

Everyone Needs a Theme Song
Michael wrote an excellent theme song in honor of John Ashcroft's multi-city tour promoting the Patriot Act. Rumor has it a holiday carolling book is in the works, too.

Asking For It
Kristen Fischer, a senior editor at ESPN.com wrote an article a couple weeks ago about the Kobe Bryant case that is actually worth reading compared to the bizarro coverage most of the press has given it. One news program shortly after the story broke went on and on about how Kobe's product deals might ...
