I’ve been trying to come up with some sort of an events calendar/database for stuff like upcoming concerts, talks, CD/DVD releases, etc. that are of particular interest to me. So far I haven’t found a solution I like (so I may just write something on my own), so in the meantime I’ll just do a normal post. (That is why, as you may have noticed, there is an “Events” header on the right with nothing under it.)
I guess I share this stuff since I figure it’s probably of interest to a few more people than just me, plus if it’s something like a concert or whatever maybe more people can join in the fun, yeah?
Month | Day | Exciting Thing |
April | 19-23 | In the Mood for Love at Central Cinema |
April | 25 | Final Fantasy VII – Advent Children DVD release (sort of a “part two” to the FF7 video game — one of my all-time favorites) |
April | 26 | Ladytron in concert at Neumos (buy tickets) |
April | 28-29 | Coachella in California (I’ll blog about this more as it approaches and after the show) |
May | 9 | Just Like the Fambly Cat by Grandaddy (their last album… sadness…) |
May | 9 | Queer as Folk season 5 (the final season) |
May | 9 | The West Wing season 6 |
May | 11 | SIFF 2006 lineup announced |
May | 11 | Goldfrapp at The Showbox (buy tickets) |
Also, as for things that have happened recently that are worth looking into: Knots Landing season 1 on DVD, Placebo’s latest album Meds, Ghostface Killah’s Fishscale (believe the hype about this one — it’s the best hip-hop I’ve heard since Kanye West’s first album), Gorillaz’s Demon Days Live in Manchester DVD, and the high school noir (done in a totally serious way) Brick.
