More Starbucks. More court hearings. More drama. More photo ops. Just another week in Britney. It seems as though no matter what happens these days, nothing that happens in her life can really shock us anymore. I feel as though recounting the events that have happened since my last update would be like reading old news that no one cares about at this point. So she went to court and acted like a brat, and she booked herself the other night in a Van Nuys jail, wearing a pink wig that looks a lot like the one my friend was wearing at Lovefest (see post below) on her drive there. Maybe Britney thought she was going to a party? Her label has pushed the release of her fifth studio album Blackout to October 30th, instead of in November, mostly because many of the songs have already been leaked on the Internet...and reviews have not been stellar. Like I have said over and over again, if she wants to make an actual comeback and not a laughable one, she needs to move the hell out of L.A. and get herself back on track, much like...and I never imagined I would say this...much like Lindsay Lohan. Lilo has come back to LA after spending the last couple months at a rehab center in Utah. The paparazzi have caught her doing exciting things...like getting in and out of cars and entering and exiting offices and hotels. Really riveting stuff....

Speaking of albums available online, Radiohead should get an award for the hype they created with their surprise album release, which they made available for digital download from their website for any price you want. This is old news now too, since it was last week, but it is still worth talking about because they really gave the finger to the music business and record labels in general. The album is brilliant, and it comes following a massive tour OVER A YEAR AGO, during which they played their new songs. With the earlier-than-everyone-expected release of In Rainbows, let's hope that Radiohead decide to go on tour soon. Maybe Goldenvoice will get them to headline Coachella again! That would sell me another weekend pass to the annual desert spectacular.

In the meantime, here's a video of Daft Punk live at London's Wireless Festival this past summer. I saw them in Berkeley in July, and before that at Coachella 2006. Blogging about Radiohead and Coachella made me think of Daft Punk. Their live album, appropiately titled "ALIVE" comes out in November, and I cannot wait! If only they would release a live DVD...anyway, here you go...

As of Late...Lovefest...and Video...and more Brit....

OK, well I posted a video that I made using Eyespot in the post below this one. It's a collage of pics and footage that I have taken at parties I've had and at this year's Coachella Festival in the Indio desert. I love music and I love to party and go out, so I thought a mix of all these things set to a rad song (by my current faves, Justice) would be the perfect vid from me.

As for the topics of this blog, Britney won't stop. I said before that I was going to stop ranting about her, and now the news she made this week is bigger than all the previous weeks. She finally had her kids taken away! We all saw it coming, and thank god, because this girl has put her party life ahead of her kids, and the entire world knows that. She craves the media attention...anything for a photo op, Brit.

Soooo...moving on from the Trainwreck City, I thought I would comment on this past weekend, which was Lovefest weekend here in San Francisco. This year was my third Lovefest, but it was an entirely different experience because I was actually working at it for my radio station. I was thrilled to be at Lovefest again, only it was not such a party for me because I had to really WORK. My station was there (the only station there!) with 2 tents and a scissor lift to raise our talent over the crowds. The promotions team (my peeps) were handing out swag and taking pictures, and our DJs were broadcasting live from the event. My job was to help promote and to set up the broadcast for the official Lovefest Afterparty which was held at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, right in front of the Civic Center Plaza. Even though I was working, I did get a chance to scurry around and enjoy the wild event, with all the great DJs spinning and crazy people everywhere. The picture above is me (in my work attire) with a friend who found me there. As you can see, she clearly got in the Lovefest spirit (and was partying hard just like everyone else there).

It is definitely a unique experience to be completely sober for 12 hours and working an event where EVERYBODY around you is PARTYING HAAAAARRRRRRD. Luckily, 2am rolled around and we were done unpacking everything at the station, so I went back with my free wristband pass to the Afterparty to enjoy the rest of it until 4am. I found a coworker milling around promoting an event that she is putting on, so I helped her hand out fliers for awhile and then finally made it home (late late late late). I don't regret not getting to really party at Lovefest, but at least I was there and I got to see the best DJs in the world for free...Sasha, Ferry Corsten, Sandra Collins. These are DJs that I have loved and admired since I was 14 years old! International Superstar DJs! My favorite thing to do is to go out and see the best DJs spin the best electronic music on the planet, and that is what Lovefest is all about. I can't wait until next year!

Party Party Party with Eyespot..
