No More Yesterday's Papers: April 2008
http://nomoreyesterdayspapers.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
No More Yesterday's Papers. Tuesday, April 29, 2008. I forgot to show you what a Yesterday's Paper looks like. Here you go. This one's from the beloved U.S. state I've never been to, North Carolina. Welcome, things to come. It will also be an annex of sorts for my own reporting. Here, you may find excess verbal spew from an assigned story that didn't make it onto the web site or publication (full transcripts, sidebars and thoughts).

No More Yesterday's Papers: Steps Toward a New Kind of Music Writing
http://nomoreyesterdayspapers.blogspot.com/2008/08/steps-toward-new-kind-of-music-writing.html
No More Yesterday's Papers. Wednesday, August 20, 2008. Steps Toward a New Kind of Music Writing. Still hashing through my Irish memories. Listening to Mr. Lonnie Donegan, a true English gentleman. I have been conversing with people on how music writing often sucks to read. You get the feeling the writer is having a good time writing it, maybe he's even analyzing it.But I've come to the conclusion that I'm in desperate search for a new kind I guess. Here's one try from Corked:. And we were all dressed up...

No More Yesterday's Papers. Saturday, August 9, 2008. From the Dusties: Don McClean. I coulda been most anything I put my mind to be,. But a cowboy's life was the only life for me.

I will read it soon because I wonder what will happen to the nice burb neighborhoods like the one I'm sitting in right now. I can see the backyard from here.

No More Yesterday's Papers: July 2008
http://nomoreyesterdayspapers.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
No More Yesterday's Papers. Sunday, July 27, 2008. Anatomy of a Performance. Well, this won't be all that. But I did catch Heath Ledger's movie Batman Begins yesterday. It was my first viewing. And I was not disappointed. As with everyone else I'm sure I experienced that strange, woe feeling. You admire the performance, but ask "Is this what killed him? And is it worth it to always put 1,000 percent of your energy into a work for which you will be known? The method, indeed, he will be missed. Okay for al...

No More Yesterday's Papers: May 2008
http://nomoreyesterdayspapers.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
No More Yesterday's Papers. Saturday, May 31, 2008. I love you for sentimental reasons. He’s like the guy who talks to himself when he’s walking alone, and hates walking alone. I get the impression that his life has been a series of relationships that were glorious once and burned away. In a recent essay in Paste magazine he confesses that he thought rock stardom would give him all the answers, but instead he feels just as pulverized by life as ever. It’s a hit record. Surprise, surprise. I credit the un...

No More Yesterday's Papers: June 2008
http://nomoreyesterdayspapers.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
No More Yesterday's Papers. Saturday, June 28, 2008. Who are the lovers of beauty? Where do they roam? Do they walk the streets from night to noon? Do they still bark at the moon? Do they stand up when they drink milk? Or stare at white screens and blinking yardsticks. As they wait for the Word? Are they still watching like big eyed birds? A thousand blinking screens. In a thousand milling cafes. Mock the thousand blinking stars. I really could listen to this Mp3 all night, you know. A shave with care.

No More Yesterday's Papers. Friday, August 8, 2008. After years of reading, Oklahoma City is now in the travel section of the times. An Escape, they call it. Crazy enough, half of the things this guy did I have not. Http:/ travel.nytimes.com/2008/08/08/travel/escapes/08American.html? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). No More Yesterday's Radio 2: (Delayed) Coming Soon. My good sir, what in the heavens are you doing down there? I'm teaching the alphabet to the ants! Other kicks and kooks.

No More Yesterday's Papers: At the Movies: The Fountain
http://nomoreyesterdayspapers.blogspot.com/2008/08/at-movies-fountain.html
No More Yesterday's Papers. Thursday, August 7, 2008. At the Movies: The Fountain. I very belatedly gave Darren Aronofsky's The Fountain a spin last night. Starring Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz, the film navigates 3 narratives that more or less have the same story arc. And one of which may be a part of the the 2nd. I'm still confused a bit. But somehow, though the movie is pretty tense, the way Aronofsky constructs it gives it a calm buoyancy: there's subdued, tender flashbacks (a bathtub moment my favo...

No More Yesterday's Papers. Tuesday, September 9, 2008. I have added a few new links. Paper Cuts is a blog by a colleague who's assignment for a class is to keep track of all the cuts in the newspaper industry. This may not affect these readers since most of the stuff I do is on a book or piece of music.But I'm interested. October 8, 2008 at 12:37 PM. Hey I never got with it on those apps, but I may next year. I'm still writing to be sure, and looking to move out of Oklahoma at least for a while....You c...
