My tweets of the last week:
- #MusicMonday: a great song from an album full of them, "Stay" by @MozellaMusic ♫ http://lala.com/zOTj ♫ Pick up her Belle Isle LP. #
- #MusicMonday: You may have heard Mirah's "Garden" on SYTYCD. Her "Recommendation" is 1:20 of see-sawing catchiness ♫ http://lala.com/z4yg ♫ #
- #MusicMonday: Here's a deep cut from me – a one-take, acoustic cover of Madonna's "Dress You Up" ♫ http://bit.ly/92IXGX ♫ #
- @PhillyGG It's annoying when musicians use Twitter only to post links to their tunes. No personality behind the music! I try to avoid that. in reply to PhillyGG #
- @jtramsay That is teh funny. in reply to jtramsay #
- @daytrotter Whatever happened to that Duke Spirit session? in reply to daytrotter #
- @eedawson please meet @ryandaniel. EE=my friend Libby from #bdc. Ryan=my friend & client. You both work in email marketing! #
- @Cecilyk If only that could equal gainful employment! Certainly I would get "exceeds expectations" in every review. in reply to Cecilyk #
- I love when SMEs from several different areas proof a communication – many shared edits, but some unique to each area of expertise. #
- Singing my way home. In college E could hear me coming from THREE BLOCKS away. In case you didn't know, I'm loud. #
- I'll be chilling at Cafe Grindstone (622 S. 5th – right under South) tonight from 7pm playing some tunes and eating vegan food. Drop by. #
- Or, maybe don't stop by, because at the moment the cafe is closed and we're all standing outside with our guitars. Hmm. #
- @therausch09 OMG, love. What brand? I also like Soy Dream green tea, it's much less sweet than ice cream. in reply to therausch09 #
- @therealdesh I'm using the manual sync on the 3rd party tool (Sproggler?). I can't rely on the automatic's capriciousness. in reply to therealdesh #
- Bummed that I had to turn down a wonderful opportunity to play because of longstanding plans. Life is getting in the way of life. Boo. #
- Life may have righted itself due to a previously unknown store of good karma; looks like I'll have an April gig after all! Deets coming ASAP #
- Scary-land: multiple domains across my hosting account have been hacked to include phishing scam pages. Can't figure out how they got there. #
- @ANewBandADay That article (and blog) is AMAZING. Thank you so much for sharing. in reply to ANewBandADay #
- @radiocolin I do seem to be one version back, although I'm not sure if that is the culprit, as the issues spread to non-WP sites. in reply to radiocolin #
- @iWIC3 woot! That's some great company, many of whom I owe a hello or some hanging out. Speaking of, how goes the band? in reply to iWIC3 #
- @MackCollier I just posted a link to that! A wonderful examination. Interesting that none of her 5 reasons include the words buy/sell. in reply to MackCollier #
- @SarahPsyDeal I haven't tweeted in your direction FOREVER. Good to see a few cheery CA posts from you lately. in reply to SarahPsyDeal #
- @PrestonInside No prob! However, the url w/"3" was a dupe & is gone. You just need https://www.crushingkrisis.com/2010/02/24/the-church-of-gaga/ in reply to PrestonInside #
- @triciallen She's on the cover of Cosmo this month, so it makes sense for Black to namedrop her :) in reply to triciallen #
- Excited to break my February funk by hanging out & playing tunes w/Katie Barbato of The Sleepwells tonight! My fav song http://lala.com/zvSX #
- @micahmj11 what are the boundaries of that ward? in reply to micahmj11 #
- What an amazijng night! I forget sometimes that there are songwriters other than me and gina who are real people you can sit down & talk to. #
- @Dropsofreign OMG, tell me there is somewhere to buy or download that. I love Grace Potter. in reply to Dropsofreign #
- Given the sideways nature of the snow outside my 38th floor window, I am starting to become skeptical about tonight's St. Vincent concert. #
- @radiocolin Looks like the hacking culprit wasn't necessarily WP, but other various installed stuff that had been left for dead on my domain #
- @Dropsofreign I searched on Amazon MP3 and couldn't find a buyable version of it. Her set at Bonnaroo 2006 is one of my all-time fav shows. in reply to Dropsofreign #
- @micahmj11 Hmm – not a lot of residential in that division compared to others adjacent. Condos around SG yield a lot of signatures? in reply to micahmj11 #
- @radiocolin I might separate CK from the rest of my hosting, b/c CK is always up to date and I don't like the crossover of risk. in reply to radiocolin #
- @SteveC215 Ha, agreed! And, also, thanks for following. It seems like we have a slew of interests and opinions in common. in reply to SteveC215 #
- Viral song marketing in the 1910s. An interesting blog post. http://bit.ly/bx3dJR #
- @JManrara I am having fun following your adventures, and I can't wait to hear you sing! in reply to JManrara #
- @gloriabell it was horizontal all day, but it has yet to stick to any surface, vertical or otherwise ;= in reply to gloriabell #
- At the R5 St. Vincent show at 1st Unitarian Church. Hipster central! I can't believe I've never been to this venue before. I want to play it #
- @AmyZQuinn yeah, everyone said that! It's cozy at the moment, but I wore layers just in case it gets steamy. in reply to AmyZQuinn #
- Best mix and most attentive/polite audience ever. Wow. #
- @foolingapril seriously, you haven't been able to get in to here? We need to start a campaign! in reply to foolingapril #
- @foolingapril you've never done a show with @r5productions? I don't think they accept kits, but w/ your draw/history you should chat them up in reply to foolingapril #
- @inflammatorywrt St Vincent was AMAZING. Totally worth traipsing around in the snow. I don't love Newson, but in that space she will slay. in reply to inflammatorywrt #
- @inflammatorywrt & if you come to Philly there absolutely be a hi! Maybe dinner? Let me know if you have a date. I should be in nyc late Apr in reply to inflammatorywrt #
- @jayvert taking initiative and reminding myself about yr 3/11 armory show. What kind of bands? @filmstarband might be good for it. #
- St. Vincent was amazing, powerful, nimble on the last night of US tour. The perfect 2nd of four nights of breaking out of my February funk! #
- @supermucho it seems obvious to me when I'm actually arranging on staff, but goes out the window if I'm composing in real time. Silly of me. in reply to supermucho #
- @jshanley sadly, no media, but she was incredible. Was contemplating that she seemed like a perfect Radiohead opener. And sound was PERFECT. in reply to jshanley #
- @jen_k omg, she told the whole story about it! How it was in an s&m club and they had no sound system? She was upset that she missed playing in reply to jen_k #
- @firda Good to be following you on Twitter! I've been an on/off reader of the blog for many, many, many years :) in reply to firda #
- I hope @trendcamp is on and not too sparsely attended due to weather. I might put together a possible session over my shut-in lunch break. #
- @jodyms Any day that includes kicking cancer's ass is a good day! :) in reply to jodyms #
- @jerseyshorejen Wait, trying to catch up. You all moved into the lot so the street could get plowed and PATCO ticketed you? in reply to jerseyshorejen #
- I saw this a few months ago at the height of my Gaga insanity. Parts of the arrangement bug me a little, but that guy'… http://disq.us/d0gff #
- @st_vincent You were fantastic in concert last night! Previously I was a random album-buyer, but now you could safely call me a fan. in reply to st_vincent #
- My thoughts on last night's @st_vincent show are up at CK: http://bit.ly/9Nuk5p #
- I've managed to escape the gravity of my February Funk by doing the things I love most: catching up w/friends, writing, & experiencing music #
- Were you mired in a Feb Funk? Are you still? I was really surprised by how many people commiserated with my post about it last week. #
- My duo plays tomorrow in Manayunk, then a big Philly show in April. Never heard us? See an entire concert on YouTube: http://bit.ly/ac2Gum #
- Anyone up for a brief CCity bite to eat prior to @trendcamp tonight? #
- I love this Happiness Project post – finish projects, or call their time of death. Lingering projects = unhappiness. http://bit.ly/9hB6mu #
- A post-Parachute Coldplay song just came on my iPod and I LIKED it. I'm not sure what's happening to me. You may have to send an ambulance. #
- Looking very mod and scruffy for tomorrow's gig, but first off to attend #trendcamp! http://twitpic.com/15i7rr #
- @ANewBandADay Darkness confesses their absolute silliness at the outset, so no complaint. It's the pretense of being good that bothers me :) in reply to ANewBandADay #
- I'm trying my hand at facilitating a panel @trendcamp! Trends in music distribution & consumption. Hopefully pull in some opinionated people #
- @heathie I was just realizing there was a heathie-shaped empty space in the crowd :) in reply to heathie #
- No fears, my intrepid followers – I will keep the tweet-traffic for this unconference relatively low-volume. #
- Right now @chuckhall is running a fantastic workshop – we're defining trends in the modern/effective marketing professional #trendcamp #
- Talking about hype & mythology as an element of marketing – happens best organically, but what can the Marketer do to foster? #trendcamp #
- @NellFerragamo So, we know each other already! I can't wait to talk more now that I have some context. in reply to NellFerragamo #
- Meeting people I thought were strangers but I've known on Twitter! (a) A lot of fun and (b) shows the tightness of Philly digital community #
- @EileenOBrien You're trying to leverage me into going to the afterparty, aren't you? ;) in reply to EileenOBrien #
- @mvmnt_mike I just gave my reason for attending as "Because I stalk Mike & @gloriabell from event to event." #
- @wfenza Talked about having marketers farther up the development pipeline – not influencing, but understanding the roots/intents #trendcamp in reply to wfenza #
- @Dropsofreign I'm actually in a workshop about that topic RIGHT NOW. Talking about retro futurism, what did and didn't evolve. #trendcamp in reply to Dropsofreign #
- The future as effective v. efficient. Much innovation is in efficiency, but is it effective? Or, efficients itself obsolete? #trendcamp #
- @Dropsofreign I don't know if much is coming into the has out of this particular session, as we're all talking more than typing ;) in reply to Dropsofreign #
- Wow, just moderated a truly amazing session on trends in music – amazing not because of me, but because of the PEOPLE! #trendcamp #
- Me stabbing my white erase marker at people in our session – everyone contributed at least twice! http://twitpic.com/15jc3q #trendcamp #
- Had to bail on awesome convos at the #trendcamp after party cause I was stressing my voice a little to hard – have to harmonize in 23hrs! #
- (Hoping I don't get sick – loud bars and french fries have a strong correlation to my winter sickness streak, so I'm a little superstitious) #
- @MVMNT_Mike @heathie I am so all over #choruscamp or any variation thereof. cc: @not_pele in reply to MVMNT_Mike #
- @cheryldoherty hahahaha, I love how this is quickly becoming my brand identity. I need to get it tamed soon, getting a little outlandish. in reply to cheryldoherty #
- @IONRyan Dude, I feel like you and I could've went off on each other on that topic for a whole 'nother hour :) in reply to IONRyan #
- @LTLprints The #trendcamp nametags were cool! I noticed the high quality, durability, right amount of stick. Really good product/sponsorship #
- @scarylawyer Wow, I didn't wreak that havoc in any of my sessions. Must have been those scotch drinkers ;) in reply to scarylawyer #
- Great propaganda at si.com on why the NHL should accept that Olympics are the perfect platform for hockey. http://bit.ly/90MrPO #
- @ryandaniel Hers is one of the few legitimately hilarious Twitters I have ever read. in reply to ryandaniel #
- @ryandaniel You should totes do a presentation like that @ Philly Marketing Camp. You would kill. in reply to ryandaniel #
- T-Minus nine hours until we rock Dawson St. Pub in Manayunk! If you're interested in coming, check out our Anyvite: bit.ly/atac1002 #
- @ryandaniel About Marketing and Harry Potter! They're soliciting for planned presentations now, and then there will also be the ad lib ones in reply to ryandaniel #
- @heathie If you had a contact at each local university choir you could pull in tons of people that way from students around over the summer in reply to heathie #
- @leesafar Are you in the US!? Are you going to be in NYC or Philly at all? in reply to leesafar #
- @amanda_nan Kinda funny, considering the relatively few Lady G songs there are compared to Weezer :) in reply to amanda_nan #
- @julialillis Wife and I swear by this tea for lost voice http://bit.ly/v-tea but you might not be able to find all the ingredients that fast in reply to julialillis #
- @julialillisn Also, thanks for following! I'm looking forward to finding out more about you and your songs. #
- @morganb Try this website: http://www.comicshoplocator.com/ in reply to morganb #
- This week wound up being so amazing, I can't believe I get to top it off by playing a show w/1 of my fav local folkies http://bit.ly/auVRg9 #
- @lwcavallucci I haven't spoken much to you lately. What's up in your world? in reply to lwcavallucci #
- I think we're playing Gina's epic "Brother John" tonight. Usually shy about doing it in bars, but lately it's rocking! http://bit.ly/aR6KmB #
- @amanda_nan I'm sooo pissed I missed MMP at Barbary last night. We need to put the next one on the calendar NOW. in reply to amanda_nan #
- @suburbanmama haha, I was wondering how CA you found me! I'm an acoustic indie rocker and a blogger, sounds like we'll get along :) in reply to suburbanmama #
- @purpletronic @amanda_nan Marked on my calendar! See you there, yes? #
- Time for voice warm-ups. I've been a bit off the wagon on them since being sick earlier this month; my falsetto was so shot from coughing. #
- @movie_pundit Great to meet and speak with you last night! Can't wait to learn more about your doc. I wish I'd be at SxSW with you :( in reply to movie_pundit #
- @Minervity A 73rd brilliant and most creative use of a USB stick: http://bit.ly/dkzjDM in reply to Minervity #
- Looks I top out at a soprano F today, down from Bb before my month without warm-ups. Could still cover "Take On Me" :) #
- Why, yes, I am sitting on my couch alone watching Best Actress acceptance speeches and sobbing. What are YOU doing with your Saturday night? #
- My outfit tonight, perhaps. http://twitpic.com/15qqgh #
- Stunned by the amazing support of our fans for tonight's Dawson St gig! & Brother John was crazy! Relaxing now. enjoying Andra Taylor's set. #
- AND, now I can tell you that our next gig is THE TIN ANGEL on 4/7!!!! It will be our first full-length set there. Many more details to come. #
- @cheryldoherty the hair is in insane full effect tonight. I don't think photos are doing it justice. in reply to cheryldoherty #
- @valkrye131 indeed, a Wednesday, and it won't go too late. in reply to valkrye131 #
- Of the many reason I love Andra Taylor, 1 is her guitar playing. So unique – big, chunky barehand strums, half barres, & propulsive rhythms. #
- Man, I am vocally wiped out from our set. Goes to show how much stamina I lost after a month of only light practice. #
- @maura You're totally in my hood! If i hadn't had a show of my own i would have come out to Tritone! in reply to maura #
- @Jennyfur Wow, the thought of that makes me want to go upstairs and read some HST! Perhaps some Fear of Lono, given the day HI had. in reply to Jennyfur #
- @KharmaIsis Thank you! I'm so excited to be able to play for our friends/fans in a room that has influenced my music so much over the years. in reply to KharmaIsis #
- @melissa_shae That songs kills me every time. I feel like I've lived every moment of it. I cover it every so often. in reply to melissa_shae #
