life, love and some other stuff…

recent reading…

one thing i have been pretty much keeping up on is reading. i finished various positions - a life of leonard cohen a little while ago. great book. i had no idea cohen was as prolific as he was. i’ve added his works - both poetry and fiction - to my reading list.

my buddy kevin just got married. we had a great time! he gave the groomsmen all books relating to music. (all of us are pretty much geeks with various music topics from songwriting to producing to latest bands.) i happend to get the ambient century: from mahler to trance: the evolution of sound in the electronic age. it’s really cool and quite comprehensive.

i’ve been reading ecstasy club by rushkoff. pretty interesting so far.

    I’ve got Cohen’s Stranger Music on my shelf, and I’ve read through portions of it several times…

    I’ve even used a short poem of his on my 4th ever post to twocentsworth way back in November of 2000.
