Yo!
 
If any of you guys are on AIM, gimme a holla at melloduce2. At the new gig, I just sit here and stare at code all day so some IM-ing would be a most welcome break.
 
Unfortunately, I can't tap into your iTunes network but I'll find some other way to judge you. :D

If you're willing, please tweak your settings to allow others in the office to listen to your music files. Kate Polson has already admitted that she will judge people based on their music, but do it anyway.

PIANOS... THURSDAY... 10:30... GO.

Hi all,

This one is short and unfunny cause we are sick of making you laugh so that you can come up to us and say, "I'm never coming to your shows but I LOVE your emails."  Well, that party is over.

Fortunately, another party is just starting this Thursday, when we rock the living crap out of Pianos.  Go.  It's a Thursday.  You'd wind up at Piano's or Dark Room anyway, you freakin hipster.

Piano's
158 Ludlow Street at Stanton Street
10:30pm
THURSDAY October 20th
 
Sincerely,
Bitter Schmacky on behalf of MM

incognito on itunes....

over the past couple of days, i've been trying to figure out who's who on the itunes' shared music list. some of you have user names that are easily recognizable (e.g. allisonh, nemcheks), but others have disguised themselves with cryptic names:

powerc? (m)usic? paradisr?


who's who?



is a puzzlement!

La Cinémathèque @ NYU

If any of you out there are 'fanatiques' of French films, there will be a FREE mini-festival at the Kimmel Center on Thursday, October 13th.

------------------LA CINEMATHEQUE -----------------------------------


THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13 4:00-10:00pm
LOCATION - THE KIMMEL CENTER, ROOM 908


4:00pm - Les 400 Coups (400 Blows) - A Classic drama directed by François Truffaut. Antoine Doinel is a 14 year old Parisian. His parents do not show much interest in him. He skips school to go to the movies and play with his friends. He discovers his mother has a lover. Antoine steals a typewriter, which leads to his suspension from school. (1h 34mins - 1959)


6:00pm - Le Dîner de Cons (The Dinner Game) - A comedy directed by Francis Veber. Each week, Pierre and his friends organize what is called "un dîner de cons". Everyone brings the dumbest guy he could find as a guest. Pierre thinks his champ -François Pignon- will steal the show. (1h20mins - 1998)

8:00pm - La Pianiste (The Piano Teacher) - directed by Michael Haneke. How far is a man willing to go to be with the woman he wants? Erika is a veteran piano instructor at a famous music conservatory in Vienna. Erika discovers she has attracted the attentions of one of her students, Walter, a gifted and good-looking young man who does not seem at all put off by her icy personality. Erika abruptly approaches Walter in a rough sexual fashion, but refuses to fully satisfy him until he is willing to allow her to control the relationship. When Walter becomes aware of just how much pain and humiliation is involved in Erika's erotic bill of fare, he refuses to participate, but in time his attraction to her causes him to weaken, and he begins to accede to her sexual demands. Winner of the Jury's Grand Prize at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival. (2h 10mins - 2001). *** Starring Isabelle Huppert who will be speaking at La Maison Française on October 24th. More details can be found on www.nyu.edu/maisonfrancaise ***

Food and Drinks will be served. Stay for as many films as you like.
