During the LindyBooty weekend, my iPod saved my ass, actually. My laptop froze, but was still playing a song, however I couldn't choose my next one. Cued up a good long song on the iPod and was able to reboot and get my groove back ... very slick :D

You could always wait a couple of weeks for google to cache it ...

Otherwise, you could search for both terms and get the results as posts ... then when the results come up, use you're browser to search the text of the page for your term.

Umm, the BPM tag is editable, just not from the grid screen. Right click on the song, select the Get Info option and then the Info tab. It contains the editable information for the ID3 tag. The other way to export your song information is to go to File > Export Song List while viewing the library. I...

Cute emoticons aside, I've seen DJs with this kind of agenda come into a blues room and do one or more of the following: * Completely ignore the crowd * Not take into account the size of the space and the number of dancers in it * Ignore the quality of the floor * Ignore what else was played during ...

The iTunes-BPM Inspector mentioned on the last page is only for Macs. Is there a version or another plugin with that functionality for Windows? Also, does anyone know if there's a way to configure iTunes to include BPM in it's export or if there's an export plugin that includes BPM? I've been playi...

Lavay Smith and Billie Holiday

So I was in SF last week and managed to catch Lavay Smith for her regular Monday night gig and it was fantastic. She was doing some great stuff from the Billie Holiday songbook with a small jazz combo that was just dead on ... amazing how well her voice worked with those songs. Apparently she's plan...

Kim Massie for sale on web ... finally

After STLBX I emailed Kim Massie's manager from her site asking when the CD would be for sale ... she assured me in a week they would get the PayPal up and running ... well more like a few months later it's finally up and running.

So a question to the people who don't work in music or dance. Wouldn't you rather do something music or dance related in the day. Love lindy as a hobby and have devoted a freakish amount of energy to it, but it's not my primary passion in life ... it's an interesting diversion, but in the end I'm g...
