Maybe You've Already Heard...

I came across this site via a link someone posted as a comment on a friend's Facebook status. I was curious enough to follow the link, considering the context of the status update (which had to do with the song, "Bette Davis Eyes," and serial killers), and came upon this gem. It truly is one of those bits of InterWeb flotsam that you only find by stumbling upon it.

I didn't read the whole story, but I did listen to the first track. As I am a big fan of mashups, I was instantly hooked. I haven't heard the rest of the tracks, yet, but I have high expectations.

The Best Camera by Chase Jarvis

Chase Jarvis kicks ass. From his photography, to his behind-the-scenes videos, to his recently unveiled "ecosystem" of The Best Camera iPhone app, book, and website http://thebestcamera.com/

Even if you don't have an iPhone, you can still benefit from the idea that "the best camera is the one you have with you."

So check it out. If you already follow this blog, you probably see all my photos anyway, but I'd love it if you stopped by!

We booked the band we wanted and they are awesome! Orquesta Tabaco Y Ron’s is a 12 piece “Big-Band” orchestra, composed of musicians from all over Latin America including Puerto Rico, Cuba, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Peru, Colombia and Mexico.

Ethan Margolis - Born in Santa Cruz, CA, Ethan Margolis was born into a family of musicians.

In 2006, Margolis created Arte y Pureza Flamenco Co. and has directed, produced and played in two sold-out national tours. Deemed “a triumph” by The New York Times, Arte y Pureza is dedicated to the preservation of pure flamenco from the streets and homes of Andalucía. In 2007 Ethan produced and played guitar on legendary singer Miguel Funi’s CD “Aires Gitanos.” He has performed with such greats as Curro Fernández, Manuel de Paula, El Lebrijano, Miguel Funi, Concha Vargas and Inés Bacán. In March of this year, Mr. Margolis composed, sang and played the music for Quantum Theater’s production of Garcia Lorca’s “Yerma” in Pittsburgh.
