A friend sent me an email consisting entirely of this subject line:

Selena Gomez' Scene: "band" as marketing gimmick to establish legitimacy, or too unattractive to be pictured w/ so cute a gal in a CD booklet? (just got CD today!)

ugly?

A little bit of both: Selena Gomez really wanted to be in a band, but Disney wanted her to do the solo star thing, so a "band" with her name in the name was the compromise, and for God's sake why do I know this.

I m doing better. Been through financial wasteland for 18 months but December was good.
Have internet service again !
Am FB-ing like crazy... got to catch up with your many many posts here at LJ though!

Trouble is, I dont listen to music on the radio much these days. I get my stuff mostly from www.beatport,.com or fgrom You Tube ! A list of MY favorite tracks would rerad almost as if I m living on another planet.
Musically, I guess I am.
About the only mainstream ish radio musuic I hear is stuff from Rihanna, Madonna, R. Kelly, Bruce, Mary J. Blige, Keysha Cole, Amy Winehouse, Katy Perry...

At FB my writer friends (especially Mark Kemp and Marc Campbell) have introduced me to three new bands that I like. Arcade Fire, Drive By Truckers, and The Ex. I like The Ex best of those.

At FB they also post many other posted You Tube vid clips, almost always RS / SPIN type stuff, or even more alternative. A lot of nerd bands -- I never liked nerd bands and still dont.

I see that Chuck writes at Rhapsody. I follow him there and occasionally comment. But I miss being able to converse with him about music the way we used to do.

Bill Holdship tells me Chucvk is living in Austin, TX. Doing what ? Why ? Whats the gig ?

Frank...

Thanx for the links. When I have time I will surf them.

You Tube is a great source. You not only hear the band, you can SEE them.

From my odd plabnet, I found many tasty acts at You Tube. Among them are the best Barcelona rock band I ve ever heard, Gossos (Dogs); from France, Noir desir Renan Luce Caroline Crozat Brigitte Fontaine Olivia Ruiz Francis Cabrel Gerald De Palmas and of course Mylene Farnmer.

House music: Chus & Ceballos, Sebastien Leger, Mark Knight, Abe Duque, Tom Stephan, Midnight Society, Celeda, Lula, Gabriel Robella, Filthy Rich, DJ Heather, Kings of Tomorrow, Richie Santana, Victor Calderone, DJ Deka (from Boston) and of course Danny Tenaglia, David Morales, Louie Vega, Marshall Jefferson, Robert Owens, Ultra Nate, Crystal Waters, Todd Terry and Junior Vasquez.

Tranny singers also flourish in house music: Celeda, Jade Elektra, Carmen Xtravaganza, Roxy, Anthony Lamont, and Kevin Aviance.

I will write Chuck art edcchucky@yahoo.com.
