I was checking the Pitchfork feeds on my Google Reader, scrolling down reading the headlines when I see, “Ratatat Announce North American Tour”. And there it is, the second date of the tour is here in Montreal on September 7th!!! Already excited for that show I go back to Pitchfork, scroll down, and what else do it see? “Tallest Man on Earth Books Fall Tour”. Thinking it would be to good to be true having both of them coming to Montreal, I scroll down the tour dates and there it is. THERE IT IS! Montreal on September 25th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happiest little boy on Earth right here!
Over the last couple of days I’ve been working on an Osheaga iPhone/iPod Touch app which would show you the time and what stages the bands were playing. It sounds like a pretty simple idea so I thought I’d give it a shot. Since I never did such a thing before I thought I’d use the Glyphboard source code and work from there. I get most of the graphics done and starting adding the schedule only to realise later that the damn thing wont scroll. So you basically see the first fifteen or so bands but then it just cuts off. After trying to figure out why it wont scroll I gave up.
Instead of deleting everything off my computer right away I thought I’d at least show you guys the startup image I made for the app.
I’m sure I’ll give it another shot in the future for some other thing but for right now I quit (unless someone is kind enough to show me a fix).

I decided to finally watch Jim Jarmusch’s Coffee and Cigarettes, so I rented it on Playstation’s movie rental thing since I couldn’t find it online. So far so good!
I love me some Tom Waits.
