May 25, 2010 by Erich Scholz

 PAPA MICHIGAN – LOVE IZ (Rashanco) 2010 I’m a huge fan of Jamaican deejay duo Michigan and Smiley and I’m proud to say that Papa Michigan (aka Baddingo aka Anthony Fairclough) has recently dropped a first class new solo album called Love Iz.

LOST: My thoughts

May 25, 2010 by Erich Scholz

I don’t really have much to say about it all…I had a major LOST overdose last night…watched over 5 hours of LOST programming. I always thought the show lasted one season too long…and I’m sticking by that assessment. I wasn’t really disappointed in the ending — I mean, I thought it was handled pretty well…

Happy April. I hear there’s something called the iPad out there. Someone, tell me what it’s all about. Don’t have the energy right now. But I did watch LOST tonight — quite enjoyed it, boyo — and I’m always interested in what anyone of my friends has to say about it…I had a theory that…

Netflix Streaming

March 28, 2010 by Erich Scholz

I received the new Netflix Instant Streaming disc for the Wii this past Friday. After fussing with the wireless network security for an hour or two, I managed to get it going. I had some hopes for it, even if the Wii doesn’t support hi-def video. Hey, I don’t even have the Wii hooked up…

One Day in the Life: SXSW 2010

March 25, 2010 by Erich Scholz

Unseasonably cold weather ripped through Austin, Texas during the third day of this year’s SXSW fest. It was the first I’d ever planned on attending in 13 years. Last time I was there in 1997, hawking my own music project and spacing out to the sounds of Wayne Coyne and Friends’ insane Parking Garage Experiment….

SXSW Bound

March 19, 2010 by Erich Scholz

I’m heading down to Austin this weekend to check out the last couple of days of SXSW. I haven’t been to the fest in years. Heard it’s a madhouse from the locals, but I need to get out of Dallas for a day or so. I’ll bring my camera and get some snaps in and…
