15 Minute Mix

in

I had a freak out in my stand up class yesterday. Yep I yelled at a room full of aspiring comedians. I won't go into details it's too ugly.

Here is a continuation of the mix tape on the go. I've been surreptitiously uploading these babies since Monday, do like how that works? Whittling away time theft as opposed to flat out time theft for hours.

Gouge Away - Pixies Live in Paris
Bulletproof - Lou Barlow (La Roux cover)
Phodilus and Tyto - Forest City Lovers
All Things Go - Chiddy Bangs
Chords - Kleerup
With Every Heartbeat - Kleerup (Featuring Robyn)

It is possible I just overstressed the Kleerup but I want to point out that I am literally shoulder dancing at my desk here, so I don't think so.

Music Monday

Rich Doors - New Villager
Happy Together - Leningrad Cowboys

(I know that last one is pretty goofy, I feel kinna goofy.)

I had to drive to a conference centre in Ajax with my boss today. Then I got sick from hotel lunch and fell asleep in the car on the way back.

Sadly the boss did not buy me a coloring book or a can of ginger ale when we arrived back at the office. I still felt like a 10 year old waking up with drool on my collar mashed into the corner of the passenger side door.

Yes I am cheaping out on obligations to make mixes for people by posting a new song every few days. ;(

Sigh + Robots

I did my second set, and I bombed. Poor me. Then I realized the one Pro Am night that actually said I could go on stage if I called on the first Tuesday of the month between 10:00am - 11:00am - I forgot to call.

I am less disapointed by the first bomb, I am glad I got that out of the way and lived to tell the tale. I am pretty angry at myself for missing my one hour window of opportunity to perform at a real comedy club in 2009. Now the earliest I'll get on stage is January 2010. At least I have a lot of time to practice memorizing, if my set last night was any indication, I need that time.

Some music to cheer me up about this (really when you consider the bigger picture) very minor set-back.

The Girl and the Robot - Royskopp

(The XX) Crystalized - Rory Philips Remix

HA HA HA HA HA HA - Friday song

King of Rock Springs - The Perfect Guy

"You always say you love me at the perfect time/
And often we'll just sit and talk about design/
you're love gets me much higher then the sky/
I guess you're just the perfect guy
It drives me crazy when you won't give me a look/
because you're more interested in your sketchbook/
Well you know it doesn't bring me any joy/
to know you're just a fictional boy"

Yeah....
