Help Wanted
Nothing crazy but if you're pulling a Josh Ente at the moment, a guy I did some work for is looking for someone part-time:
"The work involves answering phones, filing, photocopying, and computer work.12 to 20 hours per week with very flexible scheduling. The hours will vary from week to week depending on the work load. My vision is 3 to 4 days a week with a work day of 4 to 5 hours (no Fridays). The hours that I see would work best is from 10 am until 2 or 3 pm."
(Gryll, this is the same guy we smoked with before he paid us a shitload of money to plant 10 bushes at his cabin in Wisconsin.)

La Habana
Definitely a wild ride in Havana last week. Evidently all Americans can expect is a good stare-down at immigration. Running out of money halfway through sucked. Of course my cards didn't work on Fidel's island but who knew a country that supposedly loves its communism would be so fuckin' expensive. Fidel charges the tourists 25 times what a Cuban pays. The catch is that unless you land a killer job, none of them are ever allowed to leave the island. Met some woman from Wales who gave me the 60 peso hook-up. Got in touch with the revolution at a museum but made it back to CR without the Che t-shirt or green commander hat. The beach was covered in Cubans on Saturday. The rest of La Habana is massive '55 Chevys, ancient buildings that give it colonial, America's Rome kind of feel, cigars and a few billion stick ball games in the backstreets. All you need is a curtain rod and a ball of tape. Those skinny kids hit the shit out of it.

Coachella Recap
My camera's being a bitch...so no pics, but here's a run-down of my two days at Coachella:
Friday:
Noisettes: HOT lead singer with tight neon pants made this one a winner. Didn't blow me away though.
Tokyo Police Club: Nothing too special...I ditched out early to meet up with Bobby at...
Satellite Party: Rocked hard. Perry Farrell's new thing. Bobby and I saw Danny DeVito here and gave him a high-five for being in such movies as Twins and going on the View drunk and making fun of dubya.
Of Montreal: Sound was shitty for the first half, but they killed the end of the set with some stuff off the new album and stage antics including robots.
Arctic Monkeys: YES! Young and sassy. Really clean set that had me rockin out the entire time.
Felix da Housecat and Benny Benassi: Killer dance tent sets. Fist-pumping beats that had the whole crowd dancing. This was definitely a good call.
Sonic Youth: Legends. The new material is so solid. Check out the track 'incinerate' on Rather Ripped.
DJ Shadow: UH. What a way to close the night.
Saturday:
The Fratellis: Meh.
Roky Erikson and the Explosives: Saw them with Bobby at Intonation last summer and decided to give him a visit. He delivered.
Hot Chip: Another winner. Had the whole tent dancing. If you haven't gotten The Warning, get it.
The Decemberists: Sat down for this one. It was good--but it was also 105 degrees. A good set to eat ice cream to.
Arcade Fire: Probably the most memorable set. They played at the main stage during sunset. Amazing. HUGE crowd--it makes me so happy to see this band become so popular.
Girl Talk: Dance Party in the small tent. Lots of balloons.
LCD Soundsystem: THE best set. Fucking rocked the house down.
The Black Keys: My first BK show. Saw it with Bobby and he gave me plenty of those Bobby looks. You know, when he gets all excited and gives you that look. I love that look. Anyway, they were fucking great. Awesome way to end the weekend.
Yes, I missed Sunday and RATM. It was out of my hands. Bobby was there. Any thoughts Bobby?
