Just take a look at its new smiley face.; [HOME EDITION] Paul Brownfield. Los Angeles Times. Los Angeles, Calif.: Sep 3, 2006. pg. E.1 Abstract (Summary) "Tourgasm" was a conspicuously slight and infomercial-like ad to boost [Cook]'s rabid popularity among college-age fans; the rest was filler, Cook and his three comedian underlings in various states of homoerotic, roughhousing repose. It seemed more than a little symbolic, in fact, that Cook was blowing up last year while Mitch Hedberg, a comedian whose following mirrored Cook's (Internet fan base, transcendent rock-star aura), died of a drug overdose in a New Jersey motel. Onstage, Hedberg cut an odd Kurt Cobain-like figure -- tall, skinny, beatnik clothes, hair over his eyes. He talked in idiosyncratic, absurdist mumbles ("I tried to walk into a Target, but I missed"; "I don't own a microwave, but I do have a clock that occasionally cooks [things]") and was afraid to lock eyes with the audience. He feared the very thing at which Cook excels -- tearing down the wall between the audience and himselfbut he loved that which Cook doesn't: the economy, the importance, of words.

  • Carefully Pieced Together Around Feist
    FEIST ‘Let It Die’ is very much a voice album in close up, “eye to eye and ear to ear”. Carefully pieced together around Feist’s seductive and jhai* voice, the album forms the missing link between ye old folk (storytelling), the Brill building era (the quest for the hook), doo-wop (melody and mood) and minimal modern pop arrangements. Like line drawings as opposed to detailed paintings, these songs leave you space to fill in the emotional blanks. Its lack of complication makes ‘Let It Die’ standout from much of today’s musical offerings; put simply, a beautiful slice of sonic escapism to illustrate and interrupt the little moments that together tell us stories. A history not lacking in variety, the Canadian born singer has accomplished much in her few tender years, so for those inquisitive journo types, here are the last few years in a nut shell… “My first proper gig was supporting the Ramones at an outdoor festival when my high school punk band won a battle of the bands contest. We played together for about 5 years. I moved to Toronto from Calgary to see a musical injuries doctor, after losing my voice on my first cross-Canadian tour when I was 19. Not knowing a soul in Toronto I spent 6 months in a dark basement apartment with a 4 track and having been told not to sing I got a guitar to do it for me. A couple of years later I was playing guitar in By Divine Right and toured for 6 months opening for the Tragically Hip, mostly in front of stadium crowds of around 40,000.

  • House Committee on Judiciary & Civil Jurisprudence Hb 19
    PUBLIC COMMENTS HB 19 HOUSE COMMITTEE ON JUDICIARY & CIVIL JURISPRUDENCE Hearing Date: March 9, 2021 10:00 AM Michael Gerke SELF Missouri City, TX This bill rewards bad actors. That is, companies who fail to train and properly hire drivers get to be dismissed from a case against them. This is a disincentive to do things the right way. And those companies who do hiring, training and safety the proper way, are placed at an economic disadvantage to those who do not. Bad bill. Texans lose on this one. Jason Boorstein Self Dallas, TX I became very concerned after reading the text of this bill. The bill aims to hurt individuals driving on our roads. I am concerned about commercial vehicles from Texas, other States and Countries getting a pass in Texas if they hurt or kill someone. I am concerned that if this bill passes, companies have less incentive to investigate bad drivers, self police their company, train and discipline. Please consider tabling this bill so that we can investigate the real ramification to Texans. Thank you. Guy Choate Webb, Stokes & Sparks, LLP San Angelo, TX I speak in opposition to this Bill. Texas highways would be made less safe by protecting the companies that put profits over safety as they put unsafe trucks and drivers on the road. Large trucks are disproportionately responsible for carnage on Texas highways. Trucking companies need more scrutiny, not less. Trucks do not have to be dangerous and truck drivers do not have to cause crashes. Good companies do not have the type of crashes that routinely plague Texas highways.

    For immediate release / October 4, 2007 FEIST AT WEXNER CENTER NOVEMBER 18 FOR ONLY OHIO PERFORMANCE STAR OF BUZZWORTHY iPOD COMMERCIALS MAKES COLUMBUS DEBUT “Sometimes intimate, sometimes exuberant, filled with love songs and hints of mystery.” —New York Times The Wexner Center presents Feist in her Columbus debut—and only Ohio stop on her upcoming tour—in Mershon Auditorium on Sunday, November 18 at 8 pm. All tickets for this highly anticipated Next @ Wex show are $25 and available now at the Wexner Center Ticket Office (614 292-3535) or Ticketmaster.com. This soulful and savvy chanteuse and songwriter has shot up the charts in recent weeks thanks to her Feist’s 1234 / Photo courtesy dustinrabin.com onscreen presence in the Apple iPod nano ® TV commercial featuring her catchy dance pop single 1234 and the release of her critically acclaimed new record The Reminder (which charted in the Billboard Top 20). 1234 is also blazing up Billboard’s digital download charts, currently sitting at #7; it’s also #4 on iTunes and one of their top video downloads. As for The Reminder, it’s an early favorite among critics for consideration as one of the best of the year, with Pop Matters calling it “an exceptional album of stunning musicality,” and Playlouder predicting, “The Reminder is thirteen songs that just might make her famous.” She’ll be performing here with her band. From her beginnings in a high school punk band (which had the honor of opening for The Ramones), Leslie Feist (who is based in Toronto and Paris) has long been restlessly and uncompromisingly exploratory.
