Going back to the high school days for this one. I thought I would throw it in today, since I finally met Mike Stipe, last week and snapped a photo of him at the Kiehl’s party (middle above). Reminisce over Orange Crush.
Ok, first of all– feel free to count the number of beards that appear in this post. Second of all– we had a blast last night. There were a lot of cool people who showed up to the party at Kiehl’s. Reagan was chatting it up with Dexter, before I snapped the image above. She … Continue reading Party in the USA→
Note from Jake: First of all, I was slammed today between real work and trying to launch Reagan’s blob sale. I had an idea for LMC, but there is no way that I was going to have time to execute. I came back from a meeting and found out that Pete had stepped up and … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #91 Guest Post (TSO)→
Reagan an I recently watched the documentary film “It might get loud.” I’m kind of surprised that we waited so long, since so many people had recommended it to me. The film profiles Jack White, Jimmy Page and The Edge. Each of them discuss their approach to playing guitar, their take on music, etc.. It … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #90 (The Raconteurs)→
I though this was kind of cool. I heard that Tissot had teamed up with Hayden for a campaign, but I had never actually seen any of the ads. This month in GQ, the image above was run as 2 page spread. Go Nicky! He has had rough run, since he won the GP world … Continue reading Hayden for Tissot→
Note from Jake: I think it is awesome that this feature with a pseudo Spanish name, is finally including some music with Spanish flavor. Pete’s Post: Sometimes I wish I knew more Spanish… I don’t though… so… short and simple it is. I really enjoy música de estilo de ranchera. I would like to share … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #89 (Los Horoscopos de Durango)→
I’m sort of having trouble describing this one. The Like is what the Pipettes wish they were. They dispense their hotness and bada$$ery in sub-three minute doses. It is like the doors meets the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s, with a triple shot of estrogen. Amazingly enough, while lacking fancy vocals, The Like is still making out … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #88 (The Like)→
As promised, this week’s LMC is Rihanna. Yes, I’m a fan, despite all of the easily targeted vocal idiosyncrasies. I don’t care, I think that Rihanna is hot, and so is her music. I feel like she is a pretty awesome person, too. There was the whole Chris Brown thing that she was totally cool … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #87 (Ri ri)→
And I’m about to get busier. Things have really picked up at my real job, which is awesome. The only down side is that I have had to hustle like crazy to fit in my fake jobs. Some cool stuff that I have shot this week, starting at the top: Tara Machperson at the Jonathan … Continue reading I’ve been a busy boy→
First of all– Thanks again, Pete, for picking up the whole month of October with such a sick selection of cover songs. A couple (that means two) posts ago, I was blabbering about how I was stoked to have access to music that puts me in a good mood. Yeah, man. The Shins put me … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #86 (The Shins)→
