can I call in dead?

+ NRGH. Phantom Planet. Jeff Conrad, you win for suggesting your band cover Be My Baby when your lead singer doesn't know all the verses. Alex Greenwald wins an even bigger prize for doing it anyway.

I love the Warehouse Live Studio because it's so small and intimate, but the sound remains problematic. Sometimes it's awesome, sometimes not so much. During Electric Touch's first song, the lead singer's guitar and mic lines literally disappeared. For several minutes. WTH?

+ Listening to yesterday's Democracy Now. There was discussion of the death of LaVena Johnson, in which the use of lye to obliterate DNA evidence was mentioned, and Amy Goodman asked, "Lye, the acid?"

Dear Amy Goodman,

LYE IS NOT ACID. It is, in fact, the complete and utter OPPOSITE, being a caustic base.

+ I need WAY MORE COFFEE before I can stumble my way to work.

MTV to remake RHPS.

I don't know whether I should be horrified (look at some of the wretched remakes they've come up with at MTV) or excited, because Rocky Horror Picture Show is one of my Very Favorite Movies Ever.
