Pazz and Jop

31 Jan 2006 — 1 min read

I have four comments published in the Village Voice’s Pazz and Jop critics’ poll.

I’m pretty happy with my four, although I’m fairly sure either I or someone else messed up a word in the lyrics to “Hate It Or Love It,” which was part of one of my comments.

It would be awesome to meet him. Later: â€œI bet I could meet him at like, some sort of event. Next thing I know I'm looking up sci-fi conventions featuring Galactica panels and photo sessions. So that's how it starts, I guess, and it ends with me posing with a pissed off Alessandro Juliani in front of a speckled blue backdrop.

New pieces: rollingstone.com and Pitchfork

I’m writing again! I had a bit of a break because I was employed by publications that didn’t want me doing music writing for other places, which was a bummer. But that’s a common part of full-time staff life. Anyway, I wrote my first little bits for

I’m writing again! I had a bit of a break because I was employed by publications that didn’t want me doing music writing for other places, which was a bummer.
