LA BLOGOTHEQUE

LA BLOGOTHEQUE

i love this site!! Take a look at the Take Away shows, my favorites up right now are White Rabbits, Rudie Fails, but there is also some awesome Bon Iver, Phoenix, and Vampire Weekend clips! Also take a look at the St. Vincent clips, it's just really good live music!

I'm just bad news

I am on a whole new music kick, and I love it. For the last couple of months I've really been trying to explore the Alternative world of music, in doing so i was opened up to the world of LaBlogotheque, a french blogging site that posts videos and shoots of up and coming bands or bands that are just awesome that come through Paris on tours. It's really awesome, Ryan and I first found them through youtube looking at some Phoenix shows, but I found some incredible bands on there.

Some new loves that aren't that new to the music world:
Phoenix
Matt & Kim
White Rabbits
Vampire Weekend
Bon Iver
Fruit Bats
Rilo Kiley
Neko Case
The New Pornographers
Andrew Bird
Avett Brothers

take a listen to any of these, you won't be let down!

Friday I'm in love

I must say, this internship is pretty kick ass. I am learning a lot about things I've never done before, some more office/desk work like to be expected in an internship, but some other things are really cool. Currently I've been researching different group itineraries for grout tours, like what people could do on an arts and theatre tour or maple sugaring, so basically I've been researching my days away. It seems like it would be boring for someone to do this 3 days a week, but I must say, I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I don't do much besides reading spanish and watching and analyzing films, so this marketing and research thing is completely new to me! Film school is definitely on my radar, but not for another couple of years. What I really want to do in the meantime is move to a differnet country and work there, maybe marketing people to come to the US?? I don't know, I really like the marketing side of tourism, and who knows, maybe it'll be in my immediate future after graduation in may.
