spent last night in newark, nj at the prudential center to see metro station open for miley cyrus. my job takes me to places i never thought i’d be, this was definitely one of those experiences, but i love a good arena pop show. no matter how many times i walk through the innards of an arena, it’s still a rush to walk by boxes labeled “pyro” and see motorcycles that are going to be driven over an audience.
more photos from the show on my flickr.
there are few activities better on a crisp fall day than going record shopping in the west village.
october’s over. definitely a good one - london, manic street preachers, cmj, halloween. november, let’s see what you’re made of.

i’m recovering from a week of nonstop running around, seeing bands, and hanging out exclusively with people in the music industry.
lessons learned from cmj 2009:
the above is a photo of the hoodies playing the purevolume house. more cmj photos on my flickr.
i walked past my neighborhood liquor store today and saw this in the window - crystal skull vodka, a vodka that comes in a glass skull bottle. i think i need this. bonus points for the fact that it is apparently dan akroyd’s vodka company.
went to see mika at the united palace theater last night and was blown away by his show. an incredibly theatrical experience, the show included multiple costume changes, pupeteers, dancers, blacklight facepaint, and huge balloons.
it was such a visually incredible show i couldn’t put my camera away. my photos, as always, are on flickr.
seriously going to buy tickets to this. who is coming with me?
