I just found out that Siouxsie Sioux, one of my all time favorite artists of the punk/goth era is coming out with a new album soon… It will be interesting to see when she might be touring again…

Delish & spicy!!! Passionfruit cocktail with a slice of fresh jalapeño as garnish…
Ghost in the Shell (1996) (Japanese title: Kôkaku kidôtai), based on Masamune Shirow’s manga, was beautifully executed and I watched it again this week in anticipation of watching Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence (2004) (Japanese title: Inosensu: Kôkaku kidôtai). Almost ten years later, Mamoru Oshii still excutes an beautifully stunning anime, taking full advantage of the more recent advancements in CGI animation.
Very interesting search engine… (e.g., especially when looking to discover new music similar to your tastes).
Also something amusing that I found by accident in the middle of my noctunal search for new music.
[google:Hooverphonic]. Interesting name for a musical group from Belgium. Even though I had seen the name floating around on the net for a while, I had actually first heard them in Chilé through a fellow Belgian, and my first impression was that I wasn’t impressed. Then I thought no more of it…
Well, Monday it is again, and I got a book (UK import) from Amazon Canada over the weekend by Willy Russell (renowned English dramatist of Educating Rita and Shirley Valentine).
I’ve been here since yesterday morning and Santiago is a very pleasant city. Chileans are very warm and welcoming and extremely relaxed.
I am trying to get my Jazzanova collection together to listen to selected tracks to put on my mp3 player for the long trip to Chilé tomorrow (I mean today). Look at the time already… it really does fly.
First time in a bit that I’ve posted in a while… I’ve been spending time listening to old and new things. Making small new discoveries as usual.
Today, I was working diligently on some projects at work today, listening to an archived Janice Long radio show on BBC featuring Moz (Oh… that’s Morrissey’s nick for those who don’t know). The pics on the BBC Web site show the 43 year old looking much older (hints of gray) and more distinguised (than I remember him) these days. His life in California hasn’t been unkind to him at all… Believe it or not, it’s the first time I’ve actually heard his soft Mancunian speaking voice. It’s one thing to hear it in song, and another to actually hear it spoken…
