Goddamnit.
LastFM is removing the awesome streaming playlist feature which allowed me to make playlists and share them with you all.
Considering pandora is now streaming on TiVo, I'm really re-thinking the awesome domination that LastFM has over my music listening time.
Grr...

How you like me now?
Also, realized last night that the totally awesome song in this totally awesome commercial -
... is, in fact, The Heavy.
They put on a really great live show, as well. Very energetic and enjoyable. And came and hung out in the crowd afterwards, cool cats. I'm really digging them more and more, such a great sound.

Do ya wibbity-want me to jibbity-jibbita tell ya what's up?
Went for The Heavy, who were absolutely incredible.
Stayed for ... wait, what? DJ Jazzy Jeff is spinning? Um...

I've seen many, many, many DJs in my time. I've seen a bajillion raves and club nights, seen DMC scratch championships, and danced to some of the greats in venues from loft parties to arenas. And even though Jazz's mixes at times were somewhat sloppy, he was a shining example how a dj with great scratching and deep technical skills, coupled with broad music knowledge, can utterly devastate a room.
Too goddamn much fun. My ass was danced-off.

Salsa
Took a Salsa lesson at the Havana Club in Central with Andrea. Was a good time, quite a bit more people than most of the swing events (and certainly much more spicy!) Pretty easy to adapt some lindy moves into salsa; so we weren't completely left with the bits of the lesson to work with.
They've got themselves quite the space in there; and a bar (though drinks are cash-only and other than beer, fairly expensive for their size). I can definitely see returning, taking more lessons, and adding Salsa to my ever-growing list of dance in my repetoire.
