    I know I have one pal in Japan who understands The Cure. I know I have two friends in France who understand The Cure. I know I have have one friend in Costa Rica who understands The Cure. I have too many friends in the states who understand The Cure. And I thought of them all tonight as I posted this: A Forest (Fuck Robert Palmer Version)

    An after-school percussion group playing DJ Shadow’s Building Steam with a Grain of Salt and Changeling – pretty near perfectly as far as I can tell. This is fucking awesome! For high school drum geeks a project this has got to be infinitely better than playing Wipeout at the pep rally (right, Dave?). The Shadow Percussion Project (movie file) Note: The file is around 65.4 megabytes and plays much better if you save it to your own computer first by right clicking the link and selecting “Save As”. (thx to steveo for the tip)

    Regarding my previous post about QOOP, the fact that the service rep found the review I wrote and responded in the comments in less than half a day just blew my mind. I imagine that they probably found my post by monitoring a search subscription like this, which, I might add, is a really smart thing to do when a significant portion of your target market is likely to have a blog. QOOP states publicly in my comments that they are improving their service and willing to make good on the product with which I am less than happy. That’s just awesome! Other companies, take note. I really want this…
