I checked out 30 Century Man, a newly released documentary with executive producer none other than David Bowie. I doubt it will be in theatrical release for long--there was one other customer at the show, which opened last week end. If you are a fan, seek it out or look for the DVD. A lot of cameo appearances and comment by the many musicians Scott has influenced or inspired. Walker himself was...

This weekend was the worst weekend I have ever had.Like, it was mostly good, but it ended in heartache and suffering.And then I had to watch 8 hours of Gilmore Girls season 5 until Loralie and Luke got back together because otherwise my world was just too TOO sad.So, in order to milk the heart-ache (because no one pities me as much as I pity myself), I have been weeping, sobbing, crying and lis...
