Happy Birthday To Me. I’m 35

Wow. 35. This age comes with some serious what-am-I-doing-with-my-life kind of thoughts. Being unemployed, single and living with a cat at that age is hardly normative (at least in Israel) and despite being very content with the current situation it’s hard not to ponder other life choices. In any case, it’s time for the yearly [...]

It’s Going To Be A Great Year, Music-Wise Anyway

Two good things have happened in the past week, music-wise: The Prodigy have announced their 3rd Warrior’s Dance Festival to be held in Belgrade, Serbia September 15th. I already booked a VIP ticket to the show. Woohoo! If you want to come along, let me know :) The Mars Volta announced their 6th studio album, [...]

Omar Rodriguez Lopez – Un Escorpion Perfumado

The December release. Wonderful. (This post contains an embedded player. If you’re using an RSS reader you might not be able to see it)

Omar Rodriguez Lopez Group – どういたしまして

I’ve been a fan of The Mars Volta for quite some time now. While waiting for their upcoming (6th studio) album, I listen to one of Omar Rodriguez Lopez (The Mars Volta’s dictator) albums. Rodriguez Lopez has been releasing many (free to listen) albums lately, that are very different in style and sound. The latest [...]

Best. Yom Kippur. Ever.

Nothing like spending Yom Kippur at a Prodigy concert, which is what I did yesterday. J, my new friend, joined me to a very good show – the sound was good and the Greek crowd was a happy crowd. This show, number 9 over the past eighteen months, is my last for the year, as [...]

My Next Prodigy Show – Athens In September

The Prodigy just announced a show in Athens, Greece in September 17th. And I already have a ticket! Anyone wants to join? In the meantime, here’s some recent good quality recording of Poison (with a new second part) and Omen live:

Video From The Latest Prodigy Gig I Went To

I found a video with good sound quality from the April 18th show. This time, surprise surprise, it’s not Smack My Bitch Up. My favorite track from the last album is Warrior’s Dance, which is also a great live track, as you can see for yourself (take a look at the crowd starting at 4:30.)

Paris – The Missing Post

We were so busy trying to find ways to get to Berlin that I didn’t feel like writing on the blog after so many computer hours. But now, just before leaving Paris for Dusseldorf, I can write the missing post. My back was badly aching two days ago as we went to see The Prodigy [...]

Back From The First Prodigy Show (Paris)

You know what’s going to be written here, right? It was amazing, exhilarating, the most fun I can possibly ever have. I didn’t see too many people filming the show, but I’m hoping a decent video will show up on YouTube or something. My ears are still ringing… tomorrow no alarm clock for us. We’re [...]

The Prodigy Are Coming To Israel!!!

Sometime in June (no final date yet) I’m so happy.
