Speaking of Flood, if you’re in the New York area at the end of the month, TMBG will be performing all the songs from their platinum album, Flood, at Le Poisson Rouge on February 28th. They will be performing all of their albums on the last day of every month this year at the LPR.

Their kids music is fantastic, but if you haven’t bought a record since Flood, you have some seriously exciting catching up to do.

Lux Interior died yesterday morning of a heard condition. He was 62. I need to start reading fewer nerd blogs and pay more attention to music.
Props to @writegrrrl for breaking the story in my twitter feed. She’s good.

What do you mean he’s high?
On the weed!
Who’s this cat, anyway?
Kudos to Joe Lewis for making my morning...

I converted to the metric system last year. I quickly found that the trick was not to think in terms of conversions to the American way, but to simply stop using it. Today's XKCD is funny because it's true.

I have always been a fan of taking direction to the utmost literal level. It has gotten me into lots of trouble, but if people are challenged to communicate clearer, society progresses. Link via Derek Sivers on Twitter.

30GB Zunes poop out for new years. Users are told to run their batteries down and wait until noon on January 1st to boot back up. Sort of like a Zune hangover.

This beer has been on my to-do list since John Gruber blogged about it 3 years ago. I was ecstatic to stumble across it at the Davis Food Co-op. This beer is as good as I had hoped (if not better). Extremely well balanced, easy to drink, and still hoppy enough to satisfy a Northern Californian pallet. And yes, the can is a vastly superior container to the bottle. This beer’s tap-room freshness is concrete proof.

WordPress 2.7 “Coltrane” is available for download and has some hugely useful new features like comment moderation and replying from the dashboard, a “Post This” applet that lets you create entries from web pages with a robust blog GUI break-out window (a must see), a new plug-in browser with one-click installs and upgrades, and probably the best new feature: one-click upgrades right in the admin area. They even threw in a few features I put in the custom CMS for this blog. While it is still way too overkill for this site, I look forward to using it for client work in the future.
