I know I've been posting here a little less than before. That might be because I'm increasing the posts over at blogging.la and still a little wiped out from the end of the school year.
Anyway, some things I've been writing about recently there, in case you don't check blogging.la frequently (it actually has an RSS feed unlike this place). From most recent:
- Caf� Tacuba + Kinky = Cindy really, really happy. I'll be seeing both tomorrow night. Too bad my cousin, Rene isn't going. Summer concerts just don't feel right without him.
- Free parking in Westwood
- Great summer concerts. I saw David Byrne (plus a really crazy Extra Action Marching Band), the Arcade Fire (joined by the Tosca Strings) and Si*S� on Sunday with my buddy, Ralph. It was a really great show, but the Hollywood Bowl crowd is still a little weird to me. I'd love to see the Arcade Fire at a venue where I don't feel bad about getting up to dance because I'll be blocking the view of the middle aged man behind me who wants to enjoy a band he's not too familiar with seated.
- Pi�atas and Disney people going after small mom and pop stores who sell pi�atas in the likeness of Disney characters.
- Dodgers' losing streak ends... finally. I think you all know that I'm a fan and my moods pretty much follow how the Dodgers are doing. During the eight game losing streak I was pretty grumpy.
- Grad Nite at Disneyland and their much less strict dress code. I had to dress nice (no jeans or tshirts).
- La Calaca visits Self Help Graphics. Losing SHG -- and East LA arts center founded in the 1970s -- is like hearing about the death of one of the leaders of the Chicano Movement.
- Collecting degrees
- Earthquake!
- Missing out on gorgeous days due to finals.
- A day at the park
- Tu Ciudad Magazine review. I liked it.
I like writing for blogging.la. It's a whole different audience, of course, but I'm learning more about the city and interacting with other LA bloggers.
