Young, Lanois team up to make 'Le Noise'

Some of your louder rock 'n' roll bands can make the Ryman Auditorium floorboards rattle a little. Few, though, have shaken the pews like Neil Young with just his electric guitar.

A bipartisan group of Senators has introduced legislation that would give the Justice Department an expedited process for cracking down on rogue websites that are dedicated to making unauthorized copies of music available to internet users around the world. The Justice Department would target the most egregious pirate websites, go to a federal court with the evidence, and then seize the domain name.

Once a site has been seized, the Court would issue an order to intermediaries… Continue

One of the issues that will have to work on is get myself used to the perceived speed we are travelling. At the moment when some needs to take me to a Dr / medical centre I’m freaking out by the time the car is… Continue

Outgrow

A poetic island in a musical stream... entitled « Outgrow » :

Welcome as a teacher

You will never espouse

More talented lover

That which you won't challenge

Can't ever make you wise

But that which you surpass

In freedom makes you rise

That which you merely… Continue
