A smattering of Francophone awkward-guitar-pop for this weekend, as I dip cautiously into webpages I can only translate if they touch on French I learned at school. And, frankly, there's not much about a boy called Xavier falling into the river here. What there is, though, is the work of Maud-Elisa Mandeau and that translates pretty well. Here's a taste, from her session for Liberation: La Session...
Say it ain't so for humanity: Kevin Federline's girlfriend, Victoria Prince, is pregnant, according to reports. If true, it would be K-Fed's fifth freaking child. Federline already has four children - daughter Kori, 7, and son Kaleb, 5, with former flame Shar Jackson, who he infamously dumped for Britney Spears. The pop star soon bore him troubled sons Sean, 4, and Jayden, 3. Victoria Prince , a former...
Here’s a really interesting mix of rock, improv, drone, raga and jazz from a NYC-based band called Prince Rama of Ayodhya. I caught onto them while writing a show preview for Philly weekly, not of the band itself, which played Philadelphia on October 18, but of a benefit to help them raise money to replace instruments which had been stolen at this earlier gig. The benefit is on November 16 at...
Picture: Kevin Federline With New Baby Mama Victoria Prince Okay. Ladies of the world, you've gotta help me understand what in the hell is going on with Kevin Federline. So, first he weds one of the hottest blondes on the planet in Britney Spears. Sure she's not the brightest bulb, or the classiest dame or well... she's just kinda stupid, but pretty right? So how did this douchebag bag her in the first...

And the Bangs saga continues. For those who aren't aware of the Melbourne via Sudan internet hero, the story goes a little something like this. In mid June of this year a little known rapper by the name of Bangs uploaded a music video to Youtube. The track was called "Take U To Da Movies" - a disarmingly earnest popcorn saga/ode to dating that's atonal, chivalrous, sleazy and just plain...

Evangelista (a.k.a. Carla Bozulich) has canceled a significant batch of U.S. dates due to "complications home and abroad." That's the bad news. The good news is that her latest album, Prince of Truth (TMT Review), has no such complications home or abroad, and you can look forward to hearing some of its tracks on her December dates with Thrones, which are not expected to be cancelled. 11.06.09...

(I'm having trouble reposting the hyperlinks, so the original post is here if you want to check back.) One blog leads to another: the always-thoughtworthy Wittingshire posted a quote from George Wiegel, and Wittingshire was linked to by The Paragraph Farmer, which I got to by following the Deputy Headmistress's Sunday Hymn Post. Okay, those are the credits: this is the bit of the quote I liked: "A...

So said Janet Jackson on her first ever hit single, What Have You Done For Me Lately - a song so good that people spread the rumour it had been written by Prince (this was 1986, when Prince could stir up a hit record with about as much effort as it takes the rest of us to stir up a cup of tea). I love it when songs make reference to themselves at the best of times* but Janet's fleeting ad-lib - which...
