What I Tweeted, 2009-08-16 Edition

August 16, 2009 by krisis

My tweets of the last week:

  • RT @LanceArmstrong Ethan Zohn, Survivor winner/Young Adult Cancer Survivor http://xrl.us/be9cpm He’s co-MCing the Philly Challenge w/ @drew. #
  • @iFreddie The great thing is, with so many local bands the tickets are very affordable – just $8-12, instead of national shows for $30-100! in reply to iFreddie #
  • @wfenza If only there was a Tommy Gnosis part in the play. (In the film Tommy is voiced by the play's cowriter, the guitarist in Angry Inch) in reply to wfenza #
  • @iWIC3 I *love* @FoolingApril. We saw them at the absolutely fantastic XPN 40th anniversary of Sgt. Peppers. in reply to iWIC3 #
  • Arcati Crisis rehearsing our set for @natmechanics on Thursday in five minutes live on twitcam. #
  • http://twitcam.com/na2 – Arcati Crisis. Live @ Rehearsal. 08/10/09 #
  • Arcati Crisis live concert in living room right now! (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/na2) #
  • http://twitcam.com/nad – Arcati Crisis. Live @ Rehearsal. 08/10/09 #
  • Um, okay, NOW we're live. We #blamedrewscancer for tech difficulties (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/nad) #
  • http://twitcam.com/nad – Arcati Crisis. Live @ Rehearsal. 08/10/09 #
  • We #blamedrewscancer for restarting the stream again. We're losers. Come watch us. (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/nad) #
  • Now heading into a cover of With or Without You, live (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/nad) #
  • Gina about to perform What's Up by 4 Non Blondes, live. (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/nad) #
  • About to run a crash and burn through Hunger Strike (yes, that Hunger Strike)
    (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/nad) #
  • Space Oddity live in living room. (@krisis live on http://twitcam.com/nad) #
  • Dudes, way to tell me that the stream was barely audible. We can fix this stuff, you know. #
  • @Remysbaby Sorry there is virtually no sound. We're still working out the kinks on this TwitCam thing :) – but you can see us dance around. in reply to Remysbaby #
  • Well, Hunger Strike & Video Killed both rocked incredibly, but With or Without You was weirdly sour and out of tune. It's out for Thursday. #
  • I am in a real mood tonight, despite all the rehearsal. #
  • @mikeyil I think i changed it when @drew and I finished the sponsor document on Friday :) in reply to mikeyil #
  • I feel like twitter is still normalizing after the DOS. Or, maybe it's me. I'm not back in the coversation mode, yet. #
  • @brimil YES. in reply to brimil #
  • @torrez I have been reading/following you for nine years this month. Is that a little crazy to be saying? I think that's a little crazy. #
  • @torrez There are so many folks I've completely lost track of. A future project is to track my dead links on Archive & try to suss them out. in reply to torrez #
  • I #blamedrewscancer that my fingers are absolutely shredded after that massive 4-hour rehearsal for @natmechanics on Thursday. #
  • Lots of hot covers for Thursday w/Kate: Fiona Apple, Aerosmith, Katy Perry, Evanescence, & more. SO EXCITED to finally be playing with her. #
  • @mandy_payne Oh, I have some special fun up my sleeve for you. I might have to save it for later in the night when everyone else is drunk :) in reply to mandy_payne #
  • @iWIC3 Well, at 12:30 either @chris_huff will still be holding it down, or I'll be up there doing my all-Madonna revue :) in reply to iWIC3 #
  • My WP mp3-streaming plugin, PodPress, replaced its player with some new piece of shit that breaks my dozens of mp3 posts. Assholes. #FAIL #
  • To say I am "angry" right now would be an understatement. I am wading through MYSQL at midnight. I could punch someone very hard right now. #
  • I #blamedrewscancer that the asshole developer(s) at PodPress messed up a perfectly good plugin and now all of my music is at risk. #
  • If there's one thing that makes me SEETHE, it's when someone makes changes to a resource that ultimately alters the state of my content. #
  • @robblatt i'd love to! I'l have to try it this weekend when my insanity clears. Thank you. in reply to robblatt #
  • Just saw a fantastic presentation from our interns! One of their screenshots had @brimil suited up for our #blamedrewscancer team skydive ;) #
  • Good news: fingers and voice in fine form this morning, despite the heavy rehearsal last night. Awesome to rehearse hard and feel healthy! #
  • @caroline815 Rough only because I've gotten so far with my music in the past few years! I'm happy to have these things to complain about ;) in reply to caroline815 #
  • We're close! Keep watch RT @drew I'll share our big news when we reach 9999 blamers. http://BlameDrewsCancer.com – AND give a prize away. k? #
  • @Chris_Huff that's my #1 most played cover (in c)! I will certainly reprise it with you later, or any other madge you know ;) in reply to Chris_Huff #
  • If it wasn't for @brimil I would be having a quiet summer on my couch spent watching TVDs. Oh, and I'd probably speak more slowly, too. #
  • I #blamedrewscancer that my lifestyle doesn't allow me to live 28hr days ( http://xkcd.com/320/ ) #
  • If you know anyone who doesn't #blamedrewscancer now is the time for them to start! @Drew has a very interesting prize for the 9999th blamer #
  • Shooting #blamedrewscancer-in-the-kitchen videos with my flip cam as I bake something like a dozen dozen cookies for tomorrow. #
  • I #blamedrewscancer that I forgot to put the maple in the maple oatmeal cookies. In my defense, that part is not in the cookbook. #
  • I #blamedrewscancer that I am out of D'Addario EXP strings. Which puts the playing guitar tomorrow for 2hrs at our event kinda into question #
  • @SarahRobinson I'll read it on my laptop once I get past all the dough phases into the less-messy strictly baking phase! in reply to SarahRobinson #
  • I #blamedrewscancer for this mild panic attack about tomorrow's event. I volunteered myself for a few too many things (eg: 12 dozen cookies) #
  • @SarahRobinson Oatmeal cookies, reverse chocolate chip cookies, tea cookies, and potato chip cookies to sell at tomorrow's #BDC event. in reply to SarahRobinson #
  • Yay! I'm now unembargoed & can tell you that #23andme partnered w/ #blamedrewscancer for @blameathon &beyond! TechCrunch http://bit.ly/X85QJ #
  • Wow. I'm in my kitchen (surrounded by cookies; buy them tomorrow!) just crying at amazing stuff @drew has done and is going to keep doing. #
  • Okay. Done crying. Done talking to @drew. Done cookies. Done panic attack. Kinda. Need to finish lead sheets and laundry. And pack up stuff. #
  • @adventuregrrl Yes! I'll be unavoidable, playing music thru 10:30 & emcee duties. Be prepared to buy cookies & rock out to 80s/90s tunes ;) in reply to adventuregrrl #
  • @23andMe The #blamedrewscancer team is SO EXCITED to be your partner! I've been following 23 in the news since the '07 Wired article. #
  • @SarahPsyDeal Hugs right back! You are totally my center tonight. I have a song of mine to sing to you about that. Maybe this weekend. in reply to SarahPsyDeal #
  • @digitalv Summer used to be quiet for me, but I've reversed that this year! That said, next few weeks will quiet down. After work sometime? in reply to digitalv #
  • @bliptv Upper-case "B" now erased from my blip.tv vocabulary! ;) Which means @brimil is now officially rebranded as "britt." #
  • Cookies. Covers. Cancer-blaming. RT @blameathon: Official Kick-Off to the Blame-A-Thon: TONIGHT! http://tumblr.com/x2b2occif #
  • Aside from the still-pending guitar strings issue, life is relatively in order at the moment. Hope I'll see you all in 11hrs @natmechanics. #
  • Bluebond has almost my gauge of strings in stock, so the last stress-inducing element of my day is eliminated. Now I just have to stay awake #
  • @SarahRobinson indeed, you've identified the cookie in question ;) sale and music starts in a scant 3hrs. in reply to SarahRobinson #
  • An amazing night with #blamedrewscancer @natmechanics. Some of the most fun I've ever had playing. @chris_huff killed w/his mega covers set. #
  • Just think, guys, that was only about a sixth of the length of @blameathon. #
  • I am disgusted by the Eagles. They are the only sports team I ever cared about, and I'm just done. #
  • Thanks to ALL who made @natmechanics our most successful fundraiser for #blamedrewscancer & @livestrong! You are amazing; see you on 9/9/09! #
  • @SarahRobinson The crowd was very generous in buying over half the cookies (we WAY overbaked). Also, everyone is in LOVE with @chris_huff in reply to SarahRobinson #
  • @SarahRobinson haha, yes, I am lunching on cookies RIGHT NOW. in reply to SarahRobinson #
  • Any day that starts with someone in the elevator telling me I look like a Jonas Brother is a good day. #
  • From Philly.com: "Going to go on a D Battery run today. Usually I like Duracell, but for Vick I'll get the store brand." BEST FAN EVER. #
  • @dorkabella The curly-haired ones are the hotter ones, right? in reply to dorkabella #
  • Eating peaches always makes me think of Presidents of the United States of America. #
  • @melodysmind OMG, you of the endless music don't know? Google "Peaches" and "Presidents" in reply to melodysmind #
  • @mandy_payne "The curly-haired one"? I do feel a certain hair-kinship with them. I get offended when they're badly styled for photo shoots. in reply to mandy_payne #
  • @melodysmind One of my favorite high school songs, and the first rock concert I ever went to! in reply to melodysmind #
  • @PhillyBossLady PEACHES COME FROM A CAN. THEY WERE PUT THERE BY A MAN. in reply to PhillyBossLady #
  • We played a coffee shop where some tweens promised to come back if we'd play a JoBro song. It remains in repertiore. @mikeyil @mandy_payne in reply to mikeyil #
  • @drew If I'm there in a helper/photo/video capacity for the emcee part do you think I can still walk? in reply to drew #
  • @mikeyil Q-Dob is the only chain food I'll typically consent to eat while in Center City, other than Bonte. Mmmm, Bonte. in reply to mikeyil #
  • We will always revere the art that introduced us to an unfamiliar concept, even if we later discover the art is derivative. #
  • The philosophers' commentaries on The Matrix Trilogy are far superior to the critics' – even in their commentary on cinema. #
  • @sifelaver We sound much better there than I thought we did at the time :) in reply to sifelaver #
  • I keep pretending this is my weekend to relax even though we've got an event tonight, and a going away party for BFF Amanda tomorrow. #
  • All that dedication to Twitter starting to look a little foolish after the past two weeks? #
  • I've just now broken my cookies-only fast, in effect for the past 28 hours. #
  • @SarahRobinson Still another two dozenish of them left. I just realized I hadn't had any actual food for an entire day. in reply to SarahRobinson #
  • Working the door for #blamedrewscancer @buckhead_philly #
  • Party @buckhead_philly is picking up – bull riding has commenced. $ from each ride goes to #blamedrewscancer! #
  • I'm not really feeling this party right now – club crowds always feel threatening to me, like I have to be careful of dancing too 'gay'. #
  • @PhemmePhoodie yeah, it's a totally awesome night for us! But, I'm just being a grouch in the vip room with @drew ;) in reply to PhemmePhoodie #
  • I #blamedrewscancer for this band's guitar tone. They're good, but, jesus, my ears. #
  • Okay, bad guitar tone restricted to dude #2. Dude #1, nice and thick. #
  • And, generally awesome harmony on semi charmed life. #
  • If my devils leave me, I am afraid my angels will take flight as well. – Rainer Maria Rilke #
  • @dorkabella Wait, did I meet you? Who were you with? in reply to dorkabella #
  • @platypusjones That's okay, I've learned to answer to "kris" as well :) – at least then I have context for where people know me from. in reply to platypusjones #
  • @LunaTechie That's an issue that will not be a problem at Blame-a-Thon, since we will have the @tacobelltruck on hand to resolve such hunger in reply to LunaTechie #
  • @brznice I learn really wonderful things watching the philosophist commentary on the Matrix films. in reply to brznice #
  • @platypusjones My confusion in meeting you was that I had pictured something COMPLETELY different for "Bi-racial, tattooed, Brks Bros geek." in reply to platypusjones #
  • Maybe the hoarseness has something to do with singing Don't Stop Believin' and Faith full voice twice this week? #
  • Is it bad that I was just looking a District 9 reviews but now kinda want to see Bandslam instead? #
  • @paullucci Wonderful to meet you as well! I hope we'll see you again at the Helium comedy night, or at Blame-a-Thon! in reply to paullucci #
  • @deestbie Not really losing. I've been out at night when it's humid when my voice is very supple, and I've pushed it a little too hard. in reply to deestbie #
  • @mandy_payne I have his other film, Camp – didn't quite fit together but had great parts. Thinking this one might succeed. Plus, Lisa Kudrow in reply to mandy_payne #
  • @LunaTechie lol, thanks for being our go-between! I've met so many Twitter folks in the last 2 months that I forget there are more to meet. in reply to LunaTechie #
  • @LunaTechie Are there even any good Taco Bell in Philadelphia? Like, non-skeevy ones? Some fast food varies by location. KFC, for instance. in reply to LunaTechie #
  • @dorkabella We'll need to make a point of making it official next time. Do you often come out to the karaoke nights? in reply to dorkabella #
  • @RobIsEvil It only bothered me because otherwise they were pretty solid, and he was playing a Taylor. The tone was just making my ears itch. in reply to RobIsEvil #
  • @valkrye131 Thanks for the info! I may try to do the walk, though I don't have much time to fundraise. in reply to valkrye131 #
  • @platypusjones (I know I met you before at Philly Geek Party, but you intro'd yourself w/your handle, so that's the reference I tuned to :) in reply to platypusjones #
  • I have a song floating in my head that's sort of an acoustic reggaetron version of "Get Your Freak On," but still not sure where it's going. #
  • @robisevil @mandy_payne @mikeyil Whereat? If you're going to Riverview I'll run over. #
  • @mandy_payne It's a cute movie, and some of the music numbers are cool. But, the plot/script is just meh. And critics loved it. Boggling. in reply to mandy_payne #
  • @mandy_payne Like, three minutes from now? Let me see if I can mobilize fast enough. in reply to mandy_payne #
  • @mandy_payne Save a seat in case I make it? in reply to mandy_payne #
  • District 9, ceaseless noise with relevance foisted upon it via aparteid parallel. Longform commercial for a sequel. Hated it. #
  • @RobIsEvil I'm a major sci-fi nerd. It failed as personal drama & as sci-fi. I waited for an action sequence, but just got exploding bodies. in reply to RobIsEvil #
  • I almost punted a baby across the movie theatre today. At District 9? Really? One of my fav posts is on a similar topic: http://bit.ly/4DfkR #
