Many
international music legends feature in Johnny Depp’s new album ‘ Son of Rogue’s Gallery: Pirate Ballads,
Sea Songs and Chanteys’.
The
work, which will be released on 18th February, follows the 2006
album titled ‘Rogue’s Gallery’. Produced
by Johnny Depp, director Gore Verbinski and producer Hal Willner, it’s made by
two CDs for a total of 36 tracks and sees important collaborations such as
Patti Smith, Tom Waits featuring Keith Rochards, Macy Gray, Iggy Pop and many others.
But
I already know that my favourite track will be ‘Rio Grande’ which features
Michael Stipe and The God Courtney Love.
It’s well known that life’s tough, hard and cruel. So
sometimes I prayed for the end of the world last December. I put all my hopes,
actually.
But January gave me some reasons for enjoying this
world. Reasons that does NOT include the fact that I didn’t find a better job
and left my small countryside town and don’t get how to open the windows in my
bedroom... Other reasons.
Sound
City, the documentary directed by Dave Grohl (I’m sure he
never sleeps or I can't explain how he can manage to do so many
things at the same time while me, I do the laundry, I tidy up my room, I go
for a coffee and the day is over and I didn’t do anything!). I would have been
able to go to Sundance Film Festival to see the première. *tears*
Sound City Players, who performed at
Sound City première and they made fireworks!
I take my hat off.
David Bowie’s new single, 'Where Are
We Now?' that makes me almost cry every time I listen to it and makes me actually wonder what the fuck I am
doing here in London... But it anticipates a new forthcoming album, so I’m
alreadyexcited to listen to it.
The Strokes’ new single One Way
Trigger. Because I can’t help laughing when listening to Julian Csablancas’s
falsetto. Which, by the way, it’s not the kind of
falsetto I like the most.
Here some falsettos I do like:
Sometimes I also forgot I bought a ticket
for Muse’s concert at Emirates Stadium and my lovely friend will be flying from
Italy to see Muse and will be crying with me under the stage. Thing that cheers me up a
lot, actually.
According to an interview released by Colin
Greenwood to South African newspaper Mail and Guardian, the band from
Oxford will come together again at the end of the summer to start working on a
new album, two years after ‘The King of
Limbs’ and various solo projects, among which Thom Yorke’s Atom For Peace.
Wall Street and Co. are going (up
and) down and I need some more safety. Perhaps I should start thinking about
the future and make an investment or something. Like buying some Joey Ramone’s
sunglasses. Or one of his leather jackets… Memorabilia only go up and up and up…
Like diamonds they are forever. Unless you decide to sell them and make a good
earning.
I’d probably would do it if I had
some extra $200.
Displayed on Febrary 7th
at the Bowery Electric on Joey Ramone Place outside what remains of the
legendary CBGB’s, all items (t-shirts, passport, glasses, jackets, guitars etc.)
will be auctioned on February 21st during The Marvels of Modern
Music.
So, after Amanda Palmer (she collected over 1,2 milion
dollars to self-produce her solo albumTheatre
Is Evil), also Bijork asks Kikstarter for help.
It's a project related toBiophilia, her eighth album and
linked to various environmental educational projects that saw the artist
collaborating with some universitieas and science museums (Manchester,
Reykjavik, Buenos Aires, Oslo and New York City).
