keeping with the previous post, Warn announced earlier today that next week will see the release of Livonia With Strings. he completely rewrote and rerecorded his 1990 debut album with a string quartet instead of guitar loops. pretty wild. i can't wait.

also worthy of note, Raina Telgemeier's comic book adaptation of the first Baby-Sitter's Club novel is in stores today! go hit up your favorite bookstore and look for it, or just hit up the good ol' amazon.com. Raina was one of the first people i met at MoCCA way back when this blog was only one month old and i've come to consider her and her fiancee Dave as friends, plus her storytelling is really phenomenal, so everybody should go out and buy a copy today before she becomes too famous to shake your hand.
for those who never read Baby-Sitter's Club or have somehow forgotten the plot of the first book, it goes a little something like this:

In this new graphic novel edition of the very first BABY-SITTERS CLUB book, Raina Telgemeier captures all the drama of the original in warm, spunky illustrations. Witness Kristy's eureka moment, when she gets the idea for a "baby-sitters club" and enlists her best friends, shy Mary Anne and artistic Claudia, in an exciting new venture. But the baby-sitting business isn't the only thing absorbing their attention: Kristy is having a hard time accepting her stepdad-to-be, and the newest member of the gang, Stacey, seems to be hiding a secret.

Its a part of Scholastic's new Graphix line of graphic novels, which includes the color reprints of Jeff Smith's Bone, along with brand new teen-oriented books by Chynna Clugston-Major and Christine Norrie.

trying out the new layout and listening to the Mad Spin Zone.
check out that bar on the right. pretty snazzy, huh? nested CSS. feel free to email me and let me know what you think of this layout, which obviously still needs some work. also, i finally put up the RSS feed link, for people like me who rely on their RSS clients to get them through the day. also, Last.fm is tracking my iTunes content for weekly updates. digitally spying on yourself is so much fun.
