seen orbital loads at glastonbury and elsewhere but one of my biggest glasto regrets is not going to this bit. Fairly sure its last time they have done dr who live (i could be wrong). I went to see Stevie Wonder instead and he was brilliant and i'll never get that chance again but i still would have liked to have witnessed this

I saw Orbital at Brixton Academy last December and they definitely did "Doctor?". They also had the guts to end the gig with a track from their current album. Setlist.

Barenaked Ladies $85 - 100,000? whaat?

@Jeanie: Hey amiga. So, this might be an impossible task, but you remember the Awakenings festival back in 2007 that I ended up attending with you, Mipps and others? Right. I don't know that any recordings exist of Richie Hawtin's set during that festival, but do we have any idea of a tracklist or any tracks that he played during the latter half of his set?

I'd love to listen to what he had going on when the lazors were streaking across the sky filled with misting rain...

beautiful afternoon...

Indeed! Backyard with some bbq chicken right now. Good weather outside tonight.

As for tomorrow, I don't fell capable of getting to work on time!

Finally got me a decent sub for my room! Pushed UTI as much as I could!

Learning office software for the first time! Doing Excel with video tutorials (can't stand reading books!)

Ed should do a reggae record till next album!

Is it me, or is it starting to become a DP forum in here! I'm tired of 'lucky' already!

Last Saturday was my first Record Store Day heading to any kind of record store. Me and my girlfriend went to an on-campus shop called Village Green Records. The place is small but really rich in selections, you can find anything from Amon Tobin and Boards of Canada to Kid Cudi and U2. There's this great "bug" poster of Massive Attack's Mezzanine hanging up behind the counter. The guy who runs the store lives there - one third of the store is his house - and there's at least 2 or 3 cats running around the place at any time. Local written all over it. For record store day he had about 12 bands playing on the yard by the street corner next to the shop, all mostly amature college rock collectives and pretty talented too, made for a great evening. I managed to accidentally unplug a band during setup by stepping on a powercable - gaaaah.

Being in a record store, on RSD, on 4/20, on a college campus, was one of a kind. The lead singer of one band was doing a fantastic job during the show. Then between songs he'd just gaze at the grass or a building, laugh to himself and go "h-he-alright... yeaah", and spend about 30 seconds deciding what song to go with next. I mean I've seen stoned people before but they were just out in force!

Another fun part about this record store day was that I came into it with no cash or money at all - I've been completely broke for about a week. There was a free box outside the building filled with loads of awful, simply terrible 70's records - which I raided and got away with about 20 records free of charge (the store worker behind the counter warned me: "you know these are from the free box, listen at your own risk!"). My best catch from my very first RSD had to be this fantastic record called After The Lovin' by a bloke named Englebert Humperdinck. Here's the cover art:



All in all, great RSD. Next time I'll bring cash.

No Credit Card! They should've had a Capital One booth next door!

Just a BS "hello". Take care everyone!!!!

Oh dear. I don't have my turntable in my dorm so I can't listen to any of the records I picked up. Although... what else did I expect with a name/album cover like that?



By the way... I don't normally do this, but the record store I talked about is in a contest to win $5,000 in finance products. If you're reading and you have a Facecrackbook account click here:

and vote. The record store like many others isn't in the best place financially and any help would be tremendous.

ready for traveling to amsterdam. wondering how much the city went nuts tomorrow.

^good for you sir!

In other news, my roommate is being a dick right now! I never imagined or seen such stupidity in the last 2 hours!

That is all!

Why and how is your roommate being a dick?

Humperdinck's actually a surprisingly boss guy, at least based on what I learned about him from this review of his greatest-hits album (though to be fair Marcello Carlin has a knack for making pretty much any musician sound boss). A good catch if you ask me.
