I really liked Elephant Revival and I'm also partial to Dawes... those dudes are fucking sweet. But yeah, it was Ryan's night. Also, we must have been sitting close to each other.

You must not be an actual hunter ;)

Fantastic article, the analogies are really helpful. Unless actually hunting, of course.

Me and some buddies are going to the Bob Marley Festival on Saturday. But mostly I'll be trying my damndest to get a sunburn.

i'm having trouble creating beef/getting shot. if i video taking a bat to my cd copy of 3 feet high and post it on facebook, will that help? perhaps stakes is high is a better beef starter?

Greg Brown — Tue, 20 May 2008 13:08:33 -0000

Hmmm... I didn't hear Rated R as much as M83's "Moonchild." I realize it's a common fill, but compare the Beck/DM version to "Moonchild" at about 50 seconds through, before it goes double time. Similar, yeah?

It seems an odd choice to sue Project Playlist. Perhaps it's embedded enough in the social music scene to warrant notice but not one of the "big guys" like last.fm (i.e. NO resources to fight back)? What exactly is the RIAA expecting to accomplish beyond a decision in the courts? Is PP going to be the tipping point in this ultimately futile fight against the artists and consumers? This one makes SO little sense...

At this point I think many (most?) musicians realize the importance of social media/music to their careers. No doubt more will follow. And that SHOULD mean a closer relationship between fan and artist, where tracks are recorded and spread in the span of days. And real-time interaction. A normative shift in the creative process that should explode into the lives of us fans. Certainly the 21st century music consumer knows this. When the RIAA makes such an arbitrary move like this, I feel terrible for the artists caught up in limbo while their overlords try to stop history.

But what really bothers me is the deliberate muting of creativity, artistry, and expieriences that such a foolish lawsuit invariably entails. For the artist and for the fan. And for art and for our culture.

Re: I Agree With Jason On This (or rather he agrees with me)

Greg Brown — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 07:34:05 -0000

Marcel: agree with you on social media (although what will things be like in a year, after OpenSocial has settled in?)

Fred, you quoted a prior post:
"Let me start this post by saying that I don't think Microsoft will achieve its goal of obtaining some sort of balance and scale in the search market with an acquisition of Yahoo! "

I can't help but to think that both of them know that and that it's Y!s other offerings like del.icio.us, its media content, code base, etc. that
make (or made) it an interesting acquisition.

Re: When To Sell?

Greg Brown — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 07:27:31 -0000

Murdoch has to be somewhere in there, what with the previous Digg-WSJ deal in November, no?

Fred, now that Digg is selling (lets assume they do very soon), how might this affect the outlooks of other venture-backed social news sites?

p.s. Fred, you're a blogging machine this morning.
