nobody told me it was spring.

WOOHOO!!! i'm wearing a t-shirt today and no jacket. life is good.

the reason i have been so negligent this week is that i've been going out *way* too much and squeezing in work whenever i've been awake and sober. my apologies. pictures to come from the diamond nights record release show and afterparty on tuesday, as well as last night's topic magazine panel discussion and party. i'll put those up as soon as i get my hands on a memory card ding dong. damn my IT department for deleting the canon software from my computer!!

anyway. did you know that jared leto is in a band? i think i knew this at some point but never bothered to look them up. he sings. it's rough. they're playing mercury lounge on the 24th. . .

ohmyrockness is giving away a pair of tix for the june 8 m.i.a. show at sob's.

next up at h&m: stella mccartney. interesting.

spoon plays tonight on the late late show with craig ferguson. spoon will also be contributing to an awesome-looking covers compilation put out by the believer that also features the shins, devendra banhart, and many others.

just got this email from the british seapower people and i had to repost it here. so ridiculous.
"And now for your PG-13 News Item of the Day:  British Sea Power have been banned in America.  Ok, well not entirely.   While on tour in the US, the Brighton quintet learned that their new single 'Please Stand Up' is not suitable for MTV due to three little words: "wetter and wetter".  No matter though as BSP promise to stay true to their lyrics during live performances should you come out to see them on their remaining tour dates. *sigh*"

and here i thought mtv didn't even show videos anymore! hmph.

the cows finally came this morning, and it turns out that they came to bryant park en masse and random bystanders were given chances to win $25,000. 8 blocks away from my office, and i totally missed it. sadness, but no worries, because this weekend is free frosty weekend at wendy's! (via ephemeroi)

in unrelated news, billy corgan will play two webster hall shows at the end of june. i hate billy corgan. when i saw the smashing pumpkins play lollapalooza in 1994 (god i'm old) he kept stopping the show to have bratty tantrums whenever a fan threw pot on stage, the song wasn't perfect, the light wasn't hitting his good side, etc. plus, his voice is totally annoying and whenever i hear it i feel like someone's shoving pencils through my eardrums. and to think that nirvana was originally supposed to headline that year! mon dieu.

anyway, enough of my whining. if you find yourself hanging about union square tonight, stop by black & white, where a nefarious cast of characters including but not limited to boyfriend john, phil from blue sparks (i should say formerly of the blue sparks; phil just told me this week that they broke up. sniffle.), jo divestar and others may or may not be spinning records in celebration of our friend j (of the fever)'s forthcoming debut as a medical professional. crazy stuff.

here's another little jam happening tonight.

and now for the concerns that are really weighing heavily on my mind: is julie cooper really going to kill cal? Will Marissa ever be able to kiss Ryan without seeing Trey's coked-up face? WHO WILL SUMMER TAKE TO THE PROM? 7 hours and counting. . .
