All Told

January seems to have disappeared in a blur. We went to the Los Angeles Public Library last week to see TC Boyle, as we're big fans of his novel, "Tortilla Curtain". He didn't disappoint, wearing a bright red suit, sneakers and his usual shock of red hair. We also met up with David and Ellen again at the RedCat (not even a five-minute walk from home) to see the Machine Orchestra. Most of the show was great: think Kraftwerk meets World Music. We also managed to see "Avatar" on an Imax 3D screen and, while it's not the greatest film ever made, it was fun to see the new technology at its best. Expect a lot more 3D films now.

You may have noticed, but we've added a Twitter feed at bottom right of this page (press Ctrl + Link to get to a new page with article), as we have found it to be a useful news feed. You can find it under "moorghen" in Twitter or go directly to: http://twitter.com/moorghen.

What else? The Grammy's were held last night, and, apart from some minor inconveniences with limos invading Downtown and not being able to get near a Starbucks because of all the limo drivers, it had zero impact on us. Tomorrow they're announcing the Oscar nominations, which is always big news in Los Angeles, but I can't say I'm excited about any of the films this year. However, we are very much looking forward to going to the Academy before the awards day to listen to the Foreign Language nominee directors.

The whole site is going back online at the moment. Please be patient as I have to manually activate each page, so it's going to take a while. I'm aiming to put the mixes back online this week. Also just finishing up a new vinyl mix, which I'm excited about.
