Here it comes. A summary of the next gig we play, our rehearsals, and the dinner after. But it’s got loads of media and clips and links and so on for the musically-curious.

Music These Days
I really should start listening to something else. But when you hear these you’ll have some idea why I just am listening to the same albums over and over. Have a listen to these .mp3s Beck – Sea Change Nothing I Haven’t Seen Lonesome Tears George Harrison – All Things Must Pass The Ballad of Sir Frankie Crisp (Let It Roll) Apple Scruffs Apples in Stereo – The Discovery of a World Inside the Moone What Happened Then Look Away Oh, and something a little more upbeat, to wake myself up after all this: Tabla Beat Science – Tala Matrix …
Music I Recommend
Note (4 Feb. 2012): I originally wrote this post back in August 2003. However, at the time there were downloadable MP3s in the post. I was, let’s say, not so aware of copyright issues.

Here’s a page about clubs in Shinchon. There’s a map on this page though I don’t know how useful it is. There’s also a phone number for the club, if you can call and speak in Korean: (82-2)-362-1089. Of course in Seoul you only need to dial the last part, and in the rest of Korea only the “-2-” prefix. If you have …
