David Lynch & John Neff - Mountains Falling



From the BLUEBOB album that David Lynch did with John Neff, also featured on the ST to Mulholland Drive. There's a journey in this song that pulls me right up and out of myself.

And More Good News - The Veronica Mars trailer is here!



I may have related this here before, but my wife was into Veronica Mars before I was. The first time she got into it, buying the season sets and binge-watching it over the course of what probably amounted to only a few weeks back circa 2007 I kind of dismissed the show. Not really sure why. Then maybe two years ago I had this weird itch while looking at the sets on the shelf and said, "Hey, do you think I'd like this?" We watched the three seasons in rapid succession and I was stoked. While all three years of the show are great the first season ranks as probably my number three of all time  - that list by the way, goes: 1) Breaking Bad, 2) Twin Peaks, 3) Veronica Mars ssn 1.

Anyway, to say my wife and I have been waiting for this movie with a high level of anticipation would be an understatement. We contributed what we could to the kickstarter and now all VM fans stand to reap the rewards!

New Pixies E.P/Video



I woke up at 4:30 AM this morning and saw an email from The Pixies' newsletter that they released a new 4-song EP and this video for Blue Eyed Hexe. I've waited ALL DAY to listen to this. Now I am happy.

Ransom Riggs - Land of Sleep



Ransom Riggs has made a short video about his home town of Engelwood, Florida. I really enjoy this man's videos and this one is no exception. As someone who has a certain voyeuristic interest in my own hometown, there's an appeal in watching an author whose work I love turn on a camera and attempt to get at what it is about where he came from that powers the person he has become.
