I pitched the Dolls'
Too Much Too Soon
and Tom Waits'
Swordfishtrombones
for the 33 1/3 series.
I heard from the editor and he's leaning a bit torwards the Waits, but I'll get a chance to make a formal proposal in November. I've asked Kim to pimp hard for me.
Send me some book-ma. It'd be a dream to write about either record.
Great David! I was hoping you'd make a pitch.

It'd be cool! I don't think I did my best writing in Lost In The Grooves (though I think the book, on the whole, is probably stronger than Bubblegum, and I did more to shape Grooves editorially), so I'd love an opportunity to really stretch as a writer.
Totally D'onofrio, if I was picking. But either one would be fab. Still bitter that I hated his Homicide episode, that most folks revere.(It made me roll my eyes forever instead.I'm not sure which thing did it.)
Yeah, Corwood, I cracked up, babe.
I am kinda cranky with my iTunes. I burned about five CDs of mixes off my iTunes on my old computer, now I am going to upload them oin my new iTunes and they have none of the song or artist info on them.
I dunno, how can I tell what format I burned them in?
Sorry, I got to run, but if you go to iTunes preferences under the edit menu, and select "advanced" tab, you'll see what directory your songs are in. Go to that folder using explorer and you should be able to tell.
The reason I ask is because mp3 files have the song/album/etc. info embedded in the file itself. If you copy the file onto another computer, iTunes will pick up the info from the file. For some other formats, like .wav files, the info is in the iTunes database and copying the files over won't also copy the info.
OK, bye!
