In The Backseat

Some links and news to get you through the weekend...

Spin has pictures up from the DIG! party at Rothko. There's a lot of Courtney, one crowd shot (can you find me and Liz?) and a couple good shots of Hopewell. Check them out here.

A cool article about one of my heroes and how he is single-handedly screwing over record execs. (Thanks to coolfer)

Not a fan of the new Oasis single "Lyla"? Either is Noel. Read here.

I got a message from Nic Haracourt of KCRW Sounds Eclectic today after he missed our interview yesterday. I forgave him within seconds of hearing his voice. Yes, I've listened to it at least 10 times by now. Hands down the coolest guy in radio.

Take part in Columbia University's Music Lab. All you have to do is answer a couple questions and then there are a whole bunch of songs you can download for free. Oh skippy!
