My tweets of the last week:
- @SteveCis Check out this clip of Javier Colon and see if you dig the format. If you do, both epis are on Hulu. http://bit.ly/kRdJuf in reply to SteveCis #
- @SteveCis I'm skeptical it will remain as uncontrived and positive in further rounds, but I loved the auditions. in reply to SteveCis #
- @SteveCis Is that Kara's show? I actually love her (predating Idol), but I can't imagine songwriting in that setting. @padraicjacob in reply to SteveCis #
- Good morning! I am enjoying a Monday dance party w/@MelGreiner, but without dancing. Maybe she's chair dancing? I can't see into her cube. #
- @drawonthewalls Clearly it's that kind of morning! I added some JJ to our morning dance-party playlist :) in reply to drawonthewalls #
- Today my blog coverage of #TheVoice breaks down teams of @TheRealXtina & @CeeLoGreen. Check out my @BlakeShelton recap: http://bit.ly/msLiVC #
- @DealNCali I'm having some freaky springtime "must snack at all times" issue, so I am also in constant hunger, even when eating square meals in reply to DealNCali #
- @DealNCali I had that issue last week, editing a piece about our weight management programs.Then I brought 2 dozen Krispy Kremes to a mtg ;) in reply to DealNCali #
- @geekadelphia Is that something I can/should disseminate to all my Philly music peeps? in reply to geekadelphia #
- @Not_Pele I'm sorry, should I stop turning you on to trends like BSG, Pushing Daisies, Heroes, Better Off Ted, & Guild?…My success % is high in reply to Not_Pele #
- @lorenpeta Aww, that would have been so convenient from my old 'hood! Of course, I didn't like doing yoga then, so the point is moot ;) in reply to lorenpeta #
- @filmstarband @foolingapril Check out @geekadelphia's post on @cipherprime; local, "#1 music game on the iPad," seeking tracks. #
- @amanda_nan Do I watch any NON trashy television? My only ongoing shows are Glee, Supernatural, & The Voice (had to quit 30R, got too dumb) in reply to amanda_nan #
- I do so love scheduling my blog posts ahead during my commute. Nothing like leaving a meeting to find I've posted 1,000 words of analysis :) #
- Listening to the new @LadyGaga. More coherent than the last 2; fizzy 80s pop song like the Bside of Fame w/a gutsy vocal http://t.co/8sk1kiA #
- I did eventually come around on Judas- even if the chorus comes out of nowhere, I just love the industrial-flavored verse too much to ignore #
- But IMHO "Born This Way" remains a schlocky rip-off. Sure, the hook is great, but I sing "Express Yourself" lyrics EVERY SINGLE TIME it's on #
- @magaIicious Can't wrap my mind around it. When I write a similar melody I jot down the song and when I'm done ask others if I ripped off. in reply to magaIicious #
- @Popdust A perfect score? It's a wonderful summer-y pop song, but I wouldn't call it a 5-star single. However, your insight is right on. in reply to Popdust #
- Am I the only 1 who sings "One Song Glory" from Rent every time I see the name of Gaga's new song? Yes? I've been Roger @ Xmas for too long. #
- @Dave_Richards Today's X-Communicated w/Carey is AMAZING. You asked every possible question a fan wanted to hear, and asked them well. Kudos #
- @mikeyil Like, a week or two ago, no? in reply to mikeyil #
- @amanda_nan Whatever, that tuneless wench on Idol beat me to it. in reply to amanda_nan #
- Oh, internet. I love you, but sometimes you are so deluded about yourself. #
- Good morning! I had a dream/nightmare that my first hot yoga session would be like the video for "Cold-Hearted Snake" (thus my confusion). #
- I was just yelled @ by the staff at Pagano's at 20th and Market for… waiting for my sandwich? I'm still a little puzzled. Terrible service #
- Come to think of it, I had 3 separate staff interactions at Pagano's, all 3 rude. Not the best way to sell the most $ sandwich on the block. #
- @phillybosslady I was already undecided if it was worth it for how expensive they are, but being chastised by the staff sealed the deal. in reply to phillybosslady #
- I feel sorta cheated that I had a bad customer experience and didn't get to yell at anyone. I guess I did throw my bag of chips at the guy… #
- @Not_Pele That was the one I was worried would come off a little tasteless, actually. in reply to Not_Pele #
- @Not_Pele If you like it I should probably stop fussing with it. in reply to Not_Pele #
- @prsarahevans Generally, whatever the newest Droid-powered toy is. Also, @square or similar mobile credit card processor for my band. in reply to prsarahevans #
- Looking back: a bag of Bontons, twenty cents and a nickel. Springfield Ave. had the best popsicles. Saturday morning cartoons and Kung-Fu. #
- @phillybosslady I think people assume busy lunch places have to be meanies, but I have so many that are sweet and friendly. in reply to phillybosslady #
- @valkrye131 It wasn't like he had mistaken me for someone else – he was gesturing right at me with my sandwich. I swear, I wasn't even surly in reply to valkrye131 #
- Looks like my virgin Bikram Yoga voyage has been moved toThursday. I need to find some other way to sweat out four liters of water tonight. #
- Plans askew! No hot yoga, no hanging w/@cecilyk. Looks like another productive night of writing, lead-sheet arranging, & mixing our live EP. #
- @marykateruf @ajohnsru For it to really be Bikram it has to be in an approved studio, etc etc. Where does @lululemon host it? #
- @daveycope Welcome to Twitter! Many fun, music-loving Philadelphians to interact with here :) #
- E and I have decided that Victor Garber must play President Snow in the Hunger Games movies. We will accept no substitutes. /cc @MelGreiner #
- In other "Dream Casting People From Alias" news, I don't understand how Melissa George is not Emma Frost in the new X-Men. She's perfect. #
- (We may be rather large fans of Alias here in Chez Krisis.) #
- @anniemal We watch it in its entirety twice a year. And all the Season 3 haters can bite me, I freaking love every second of it. in reply to anniemal #
- @anniemal I can't even watch when bad Francie kills good Francie anymore, I get too distraught. #
- @amanda_nan @MelGreiner We would also accept Richard Gere in semi-skeevy Chicago mode. Or, of course, David Bowie. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @anniemal Did someone NOT have a crush on Sark? Although, truth be told, @not_pele's true love is Vaughn. in reply to anniemal #
- @anniemal Says @not_pele "He poses a very interesting question in Season 3: do you think you can be in love with two women at the same time" in reply to anniemal #
- @amanda_nan Whoa! Most orgs would be happy to vie for .1% of that! in reply to amanda_nan #
- @JettSuperior Ahhh, I can't watch it until tomorrow night!!! Are they really only going to do this one tiny epi for 16 battles? in reply to JettSuperior #
- @JettSuperior That would surprise me zero. I love how this show is all people Idol would screen out for being unlikeable. in reply to JettSuperior #
- @JettSuperior Wow, they're dragging it the eff out! I do love that. I hated when Idol skimped on Hollywood rounds. #
- @JettSuperior @lauriewrites Tyler had potential, but Patrick is Blake's main bet. Anyone against him was a sure loser. #TheVoice #
- @JettSuperior Seriously, even the singers I had ranked at #7 on each team are still Idol-caliber. Only the #8s on each team actually suck. in reply to JettSuperior #
- @JettSuperior Oh please, I'll be watching it on YouTube clips in an hour :) I have a post to write, after all :) in reply to JettSuperior #
- @JettSuperior I must know – which Casey is this!! Gaga Casey or teeny blonde Casey? The Gaga one's solo stuff is HAWT. She can take Tim. #
- @JettSuperior Tyler got robbed. "Single Ladies" was a hot mess. Could go either way on "Leather & Lace," but Adam picked PERFECTLY. #
- For those of you who aren't great at reality-show math, Adam's battle tonight means Rebecca Loebe will also get the ax. He's Dumb. #TheVoice #
- Why? Adam has three spots left, and a preview last week showed what looked like a Devon/Angela matchup (unless it was Rebecca?) #TheVoice #
- I was so busy editing that post on the train that I forgot to say GOOD MORNING! These beautiful spring skies have been excellent motivation. #
- @themartorana I've assumed because Amazon has a much wider product selection, so can afford to net less than iTunes w/out changing royalties in reply to themartorana #
- When was the last time you heard my band, Arcati Crisis? Here's video of my dance-rock song "Dumbest Thing I Could Do" http://bit.ly/mlvwd3 #
- @daveycope Do you usually record guitar/vox at once, or track guitar first and then overdub? in reply to daveycope #
- @eddidit One of my favorite re-watches. I love that, like all forms of H2GTG it departs from the known plot on many occasions. in reply to eddidit #
- @eddidit I love that they're all willfully different – the radio show, box, tv show, video game, etc. Helps defeat being a continuity cop. in reply to eddidit #
- Somehow sitting mostly nude in a dermatologist's office is more unnerving than sitting mostly nude at some other kind of doctor. #
- @ups Help! I'm having a major problem with delivery and I need your aid and advice to make sure I do the right thing! #
- @upshelp RT Help! I'm having a major problem with delivery and I need your aid and advice to make sure I do the right thing! #
- What is your favorite "must cheer up now" song to blast on crummy days? Lots of psychic nastiness abounding today, but I refuse to succumb. #
- I think my boss just got me drunk on Capogiro gelatos. #
- @radiocolin I don't know if I have that yet! I am doing a Bruce LP a month to try to understand him the way the older generation does. in reply to radiocolin #
- @eddidit I knew @Not_Pele was going to say that, but from you it was a surprise :) in reply to eddidit #
- @bigalittlea OMFG, you win. Let's talk about how much I love old Rod Stewart and French rock/pop. Totally made my day. in reply to bigalittlea #
- @Remysbaby That is HILARIOUS. But if I put on "Proud Mary" I have to do the dance, no question. in reply to Remysbaby #
- @daveycope That is a serious go-to. Queuing it up now. in reply to daveycope #
- Y'all make the best collaborative playlists ever. My now-playing "cheer up" list includes Joni, Nina, Tina, Bruce, Faces, – all awesome. #
- @radiocolin It's weird, some companies/brands are using Vevo really well as their YT-based voice, but others just don't get it. in reply to radiocolin #
- @radiocolin Indeed. I was surprised that NBC had #TheVoice battles on Vevo as soon as the PST shows were over. in reply to radiocolin #
- Does anyone know a comm/event-planner behind-the-scenes on ING Marathons in NYC, Miami, Hartford, etc? Want to talk shop w/them. /cc @brimil #
- "If you want a ball to bounce you gotta let it go, just let it go." – Ani D. #
- @leesafar AwesOME! Send them my way when you're through ;) in reply to leesafar #
- @SarahRobinson Are you an Ani fan, or the quote just resonated? And, how goes life w/the Turk? :) in reply to SarahRobinson #
- listening to "Ani DiFranco – Origami (Live)" ♫ http://blip.fm/~14hz94 #
- @SarahRobinson From an always grin-inducing song, Origami http://blip.fm/~14hz94 -sounds like major ball-bouncing was needed for Young Turk! in reply to SarahRobinson #
- Can I retro-add surviving Bikram yoga to my life goals? Even with some child's pose I thought I was going to pass from this life to the next #
- I know this isn't very zen of me, but I do take a little delight when I receive a poorly executed piece of collateral designed by frenemies. #
- @theoreticalgirl Teenage Feelings! Did you make out? Or, he just expressed interest? Document those Bedroom Problems! in reply to theoreticalgirl #
- @marykateruf I was confident in poses; I did a few really awesome balances (for me)! But the standing up leaning down in heat made me queasy in reply to marykateruf #
- Good morning! Are you getting your Friday off to a good start? What awesome song is the soundtrack to your TGIF? #
- .@theoreticalgirl As an experienced Philly promoter, what kind of pull do you think posters have? Is it just long term brand recognition? in reply to theoreticalgirl #
- @matthewebel Are you going to be at #140conf again this year? Perhaps doing an official show or panel? #
- @matthewebel Sweet! I'm definitely looking forward to it (and maybe hearing you sing a bit this year @ #140conf :) @mikeerrico @spinaltap in reply to matthewebel #
- Many good points! RT @JDeragon The event planner does it all: #Social creative, & intellectual capital #SocialCapital http://bit.ly/jASuqC #
- Good company! RT @ixiivrecords #FF Some fav local artists @krisis @jbsoullove @iknowbrasco @spillsmusic @Zarinah @ericsosa @PlanetPremRock #
- I work so much more efficiently with music on in the background. I don't know what it is about music, but my billable hours tell the story. #
- @JettSuperior I think it keeps the constantly-milling-about portion of my brain occupied so I can completely focus on writing. in reply to JettSuperior #
- @JettSuperior I almost always like to do two things at once – a conscious one & a background one. Also includes puzzles while watching TV. #
- @JettSuperior Minor ADHD? Perhaps. #
- Last fall's Fantastic Four Vol. 3 hardcover is seriously the hardest graphic novel I've tried to track down all year. FOUR cancelled orders! #
- Marvel probably incrementally increased print run of v3 based on the FF's popularity before death craze started. Surely printed more of v4. #
- I saw my guardian angel at hot yoga, and not because I was hallucinating from the heat… http://bit.ly/lle7uj #
- Despite not liking whiskey, I seem to appreciate all things whiskey-flavored. Especially ice cream. #
- @amanda_nan The new Bonnaroo flavor of Ben & Jerry's. Also, my favorite flavor at Capogiro. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @drawonthewalls Possibly the end of "Moonage Daydream." in reply to drawonthewalls #
- E says I shouldn't go outside right now to poison the rest of our old, scrabby grass. I say midnight is a perfect time for such an activity #
- Putting together new lead sheets for our first acoustic Arcati Crisis rehearsal with bass tonight. #
