Blizzard of '77

Songs in my head:
"The Chemistry Between Us" by Suede
"The Drowners" by Suede
"Hungry Heart" by Bruce Springsteen
"Blizzard of '77" by Nada Surf

We attempted to finish the basic tracks for "Four Corners" last night. Due to various "technical difficulties," it didn't really work out. Jason did lay down a vocal track in (what I believed was) one take. Granted, we weren't in the same room that he cut it, but he came out about seven minutes after going in. Impressive.

Ash is touring North America in March! Read all about it here.

Here is some info about Edgar Wright's (of Shaun of the Dead fame) next project.

MTV.com has a lengthy article on Peter Jackson's forthcoming King Kong remake.

Thankfully, snow did not fall yesterday. There was a lot of rain, but it did not turn into a wintery mix. We're safe for now, maybe the whole rest of winter.

One With the Force

For as long as I have been alive, Star Wars has been in my life. I was only a year old when The Empire Strikes Back came out, a time when apparently a lot of people were angry about the twist that revealed Luke Skywalker’s parentage. I was not aware of this until I was in college, and frankly, does it really matter about the twist or the context of the day for fans? I think it does, as history has a way of repeating itself. These eleven films (along with a couple of animated shows, a holiday special, and a couple of live action shows) continue to mean something, even when they come out to mixed reviews. The Star Wars saga itself is bigger than those reactions, and I’m happy to see the saga transcend generations. I’m only a few days removed from seeing The Rise of Skywalker for the first time. I thought it was a fantastic film in the Skywalker saga. And since I’m not a filmmaker or a producer, I’m not one to make a bold claim about how I would have done it better. Because Star...
