Baby Got Books

Making the Rounds

I’ve got a guest post up today over at The Yellow Stereo. They invited me over to talk about Rob Sheffield’s appearance at the Baby Got Books Reading Series next week. They’ve even gone the extra mile and put a track from our musical guest, The Swear (below), in the post. Excellent.

The Yellow Stereo is based in Auburn, Alabama if I remember correctly. They are an excellent source for finding new music. These are the guys who gave me my first listen to Jens Lekman, who made an appearance in yesterday’s post. They make me glad that there was no internet when I was in college. (Can you imagine such a thing?)

It sure seems like there is some buzz building on the internets about the reading. You may want to get there early. It’s one week from today. (Details)

I was on an Athens, GA-based music/culture blog yesterday. Today I’ve got Auburn, AL covered. If only I had some friends with a music blog in Atlanta to help get the word out. *ahem*

My man, I hate to break it this way (and I will be making an official post soon), but Rich and I have decided to retire TTT. It just got to be more work than we reckoned for or could handle, given our current life circumstances. So we haven’t been ignoring your big event on purpose — we just aren’t going to be blogging anymore, at least not for the foreseeable future. But I plan to be at the reading, for what that’s worth!

Oh, man. I thought that you guys were just being extra slack. It’s a sad day in the blogosphere.

I look forward to seeing you at the reading though.

Say no more… I’ve been looking so forward to this event and was planning on posting something about it anyway. But would you like to guest post about it instead?

Kim: Sounds good. I’ll shoot you an e-mail.
