Today I was thinking about how Live Nation should go fuck itself. With a knife.

Dear Live Nation: It would really be more 'convenient' for me if you died. Slowly. Painfully. ASAP.

Love,
Kim

The BM's can totally pick their own colors.

This morning while I was (completely out of character, probably due to hunger or fatigue) telling Jen that I don't care about money and just want mac & cheese on a fire escape and True Love, I obviously started planning my wedding in my head for the 69,000,000,000th time (acceptable grooms for the day including any of the cast of Gossip Girl, particularly wastey-face Ed Westwick, because I am equally as cool as Jen and want to party hard with 21-year-old teen television show stars) and decided that my bridesmaids can wear whatever the hell dress they want.

As long as they incorporate one of these belts:
JCrew is so incredible it hurts my little heart. Belt also available in white (eh, I'm wearing white), classic navy (with more navy!), and soft fuscia (with black!!). Lemon twist pictured (on the fence. with ... navy?).

I'll return now to designing my invitations and mentally mixing my signature cocktail.

Spotted: Ed Westwick Boozing His Way Through NY... Again

Looks like Chuck has been out on the town again, says Page 6. Dear god, I need to get out more, find the cast of Gossip Girl, look cool* enough to get into wherever they are, and party with them. That should be my mission for April.

*Does wanting to party with the cast of GG drastically reduce my cool-factor? I'd say probably. Carry on.

Heidi And John Are Totes In Lovvveeee!

So Heidi Montag endorsed John McCain the other day, and Spencer was all, "Shut up Heidi, no one cares what you think!" (I do! Heidi, you are so cute - though I will NEVER support the boob job - and I don't care that you are a Republican or that you totally jacked Elodie for her job at Bolthouse or that you unleashed "Body Language" upon the world! You could do way better than Spencer. May I suggest Hitler, or maybe a sea slug?).

Well Spencer, apparently, John McCain does care what Heidi thinks! Consider my mind blown... Or is a this a job done by the crafty Megan McCain to show that her dad is down with the kids these days? Well played Megan. Well played.

It will make no difference in the election. Obviously, everyone like Heidi is already voting for McCain and all of the people who are Heidi fans (admit it, everyone is) but not like Heidi are voting for someone else.

Next, to decide the outcome of the Democrat primaries, I would like to see Obama and Clinton face off in a game of Beirut.

Shameless self-promotion of sorts ...

Erin Harpe CD Release Party: Delta Blues Duets

(Jamaica Plain, MA)
Come join Juicy Juju Records' acoustic Delta blues artist Erin Harpe as she celebrates the release of her second cd, Delta Blues Duets, with a FREE show Thursday, April 3, at the Alchemist Lounge in Jamaica Plain! The frontwoman of local electronic-dance band Lovewhip, Erin shifts gears and demonstrates her formidable talent for 1920s and 30s style Delta blues. The party gets underway at 10 p.m. and will feature Erin performing with some very special guests!

Delta Blues Duets features Erin accompanied on vocals and guitar by her father, bluesman Neil Harpe. The duets showcase harmonized vocals and dueling finger picking acoustic guitar parts. The ten-song CD was recorded at Mix One Studio in Boston and mastered at Makeshift Mastering in Hyde Park.

Delta Blues Duets will be Erin's first album that is going to be released as three options: as a CD for $10, a High Quality Digi-Album for $5, or as free mp3's. The Digi-Album comes as a downloadable zip file, which will include 10 songs, artwork, and liner notes. For more information, sign up for Erin's mailing list or for her blog via RSS feed.

Growing up in the Washington DC area, Erin began playing the guitar in her teens, under the teaching her father. She soon began performing at folk festivals, coffee houses, bars, and parties in the DC area, developing a strong blues guitar and vocal style of her own. Erin relocated to Boston to develop her music career, where she met blues talents such as Paul Rishell and Susan Tedeschi.

Since moving to Boston, Erin has performed at many venues, including the original House of Blues, the Middle East, Harpers Ferry and many more. She has opened for Rounder Records national touring act the Tarbox Ramblers, among others. She was also the first solo act to participate in the Boston Blues Challenge, where she made it to the finals, winning her night and beating out six blues bands. She is played regularly on Boston-area blues radio shows, and counts among her fans veteran WBOS radio DJ Holly Harris.

I have no focus on Tuesdays. Tuesdays are stupid.

I was going to post about Andy Roddick being engaged (and not to me. or Jen.) because I forgot to do it yesterday, but now I am too distracted by other things, like how great I smell right now (I think my body and the body wash I've used for the past, you know, decade or so, just decided to begin a love affair, because I suddenly smell like AWESOME as opposed to just nice) and the fact that little Jen was in love with Ricky Schroder. I had no idea. The first movie/TV star crush I can remember having was on the boy who played Rocky in 3 Ninjas. The first one. And then the sequels came with a new actor, and I was sad.

OHMAGAH! Ricky Schroder's Son Looks JUST LIKE HIM!

My inner five year old who had a massive crush on Ricky Schroder in Silver Spoons just died/swooned of happiness. I was too young then and I am too old now... I WILL NEVER WIN!
