DJ Janie

My little sister moved to LA last year to become a DJ.  Just put out her first mix full of songs we grew up on:

Jersey Holidays

Wrapping up two weeks with family and old friends in Jersey and finally heading home.  Some touristy highlights:

1) Roentgens furniture exhibit at the Met

Super-intricate furniture pieces with all kinds of hidden compartments that pop out when you turn a key or push a button.  The features are controlled using springs, pulleys, and metal cables.

Some of the furniture pieces:

2) Wicked

One of the few musicals, movies, etc. that lives up to the book.

3) Self-guided Sopranos tour

We were 10 years behind on this one but still fun.  Stopped at Satin Dolls (aka the Bada Bing), Holsten’s (where the last scene of the last episode takes place), and Pizzaland (awful pizza but great drawing of the Sopranos guys).

Dance dance

Danced like I haven’t danced since I was a teenager w/ DJ Z-Trip at Mighty SF last night.

Feeling grateful for music and hella skilled DJs.  ❤

Fall

Feels like a lot of people were lost this summer.

Hope we find what we need in the fall.

Saturday Listening

Getting ready for the drive up to Point Reyes and loading up on podcasts.

Two of my fave APEX music shows from earlier this year on art and cultural work:
