One In A Million

Oh Aaliyah. The A-A-L-I-Y-A-H. Where would I be without you? Especially through those JR. High and High School days. Oh how I would intentionally write 4 page letters, and believe every boyfriend or crush was one in a million. How I would put your songs on my pager/voicemail intros. Or how I always wanted my bangs to cover my eyes. Because of you.

The current FADER icon issue, is about Aaliyah. Read it. It makes you remember the great memories you had with her music. And it makes you remember, 'oh yeah she use to be with R. Kelly, how weird."

TheFader.com also put up a very nostalgic DJ Caps Aaliayh mix. Check it out.

If you haven't already, check out the new album which came out a few weeks ago called Rising Down. Here's the 'Get Busy' video. Shot at the NYC Cornerstone office:'

ghostly swim.

i know it's been an eternity in internet time, but if you haven't yet, browse on over to ghostly swim, a website collaboration between record label Ghostly International and Adult Swim.

the site has an 18-track electro(nic) album full of good shit which can be downloaded for free.

the kim's two favorite movies of the week

At the moment, I have two great films playing over and over in my head.

Son of Rambow, which I saw last week at The Landmark. The trailer reminded me of Rushmore + Be Kind Rewind, where I was worried that it wouldn't have 'feel' to it, but it did. It even made me cry. In a good way. We don't get to cry in a good way enough.

By the way The Landmark, is one great theater. The seats are the most comfortable seats ever and they have toblerone and yogurt with fresh berries! woo hoo.

and

Natural Born Killers. I never watched the movie. Thinking back I don't think I was allowed to. SO we bought the director's cut this week at Amoeba for $9.99. And I freaken loved it. Where scenes keep on replaying in my head.

my favorite part of the night was when Lil'Rock did a screening for his upcoming video project. it was like a hip hop "be kind rewind" scene.

the event was held at eVocal in Costa Mesa.





it was my first time at the store. and dude, its a pretty cool store. i just loved the space of it, the art around the store, and even their restroom was nicely designed. they've been throwing a lot of events there lately. so yeah check out their myspace for more info and what nots: www.myspace.com/evocal

Comedy Death Ray

If you've never gone to a comedy show, UCB Theatre is the place to go. Most people don't know about this place, thankfully, unless they're into the whole "alt comedy" thing or are super cool, just one of those two. The shows featured in this place are scheduled 7 days a week, never cost more than eight dollars max aaaannnnd there's no drink minimum, no cover and always cool, innovative lineups in the mix.

Comedy Death Ray happens every Tuesday and is my favorite night. For the low, low price of five American dollars, you too can bear witness to a magic so strong, some might call it a death ray. The night consists of a usually all-star lineup of comedians performing in a small, almost personal, room, telling new jokes, old jokes and awkward stories involving their penises somehow getting caught in light sockets... Laaadies? The Comedians of Comedy, the Sklar brothers, Jesus: all have been a part of this great night.

...well, not Jesus, but he would totally show if he was still around.

...and funny.

The point is, this will be a great night. Doug Benson is an awesome comedian and cowrote the marijuanalogues. Dana Gould was on the Ben Stiller show and was executive producer for the Simpsons for many years. Brendon Small can shred on a guitar aaannnnd is responsible for both Metalocalypse and Home Movies. Ed Helms, Andy Daly, Craig Anton... There are so many reasons for you to check this show out. So many in fact, I'll stop.

may is bike to work month!
