Tour Dates for the Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto string of concerts in Europe have been announced. Anyone who can sneak in and record them for me will be greatly rewarded.

In a case of life imitating art, I'd like to take my hat off to the Bush family for emulating the antics of my all time favorite prime time soap opera, Dallas. They're EXACTLY like the Ewing clan, only dumber. And there's a tranvestite acting as a former first lady instead of sweet Miss Ellie.
