Ahhh these oppressive muggy days. It's hard to be a curly-haired man in this weather. Pacific Northwest, you're callin' my name.

Thanks you guys for your birthday wishes!

Now--a question: I want to get a birthday tattoo. I have a very simple custom graphic that I want to get: basically, I need somebody who's accurate to a big degree. Any suggestions for NY tattoo artists? I don't need somebody amazing, just extremely, extremely comptent.

I also want to re-mention for folks that haven't seen it before:...

Does anybody do yoga in New York? Got any recommendations? I'm an utter novice who wants to dip my toe into the yogamazism.

i think Crunch gyms have yoa classes and those things are everywhere in the city. i also recall seeing a place on st marks between 2nd and 3rd that offered yoga classes...good luck finding a place! biggrin
pickney_gal:
Toe-dipping, you say. Well, Jivamukti is the yogic equivalent of the 10m dive tank. The waterfall, the 'boutique', the guruji-worship...the very non-yogic competitve vibe that pervades most classes. (Not to knock any Jivamukti-ites out there, it's just a very...*particular* way of practing yoga.)

If you're looking --hoping-- to be a neophyte amongst neophytes, keeping the intimidation factor to a minimum: take yourself elsewhere. Laughing Lotus, Be Yoga and Sonic are all great studios and, IMHO, a bit more welcoming. The kinds of places that make you feel unafraid to pipe up and admit you don't know your chaturangas from your navasanas. Plus, most of these studios have very balanced classes; a good mix of the physical, spiritual, mental and emotional.

Gyms (more notably NYSC and Crunch) are good too, just expect to focus more on your abs and less on your chakras ; )

Hope that helps...?

I have a weird yen to shave my head. Not bald, mind you, but just a buzz cut. Like, um, Matt Lauer style. I want a rounder head for some reason.

I'm also a brotha who's down with some male pattern baldness action (which I am OK with--check my man Ed Harris out for sexxxxy bald dude situation). So maybe it's time for the ol...

Poor darln'. Would soup dumplings help?

(Oh, and from your WAY old comment on my journal: Yes, I was listening to "Gospel at Colonus." 10 points! I'm always walking around humming the "How Shall I See You Through my Tears" song. I should get my hands on the full score and learn that shee-at.)

This is the April Fool's joke email that went out to my fan-email-gig-and-other-Mike-Doughty-news-email-list:

'The first 5,000 copies of HAUGHTY MELODIC in stores upon its May 3 release will include an exclusive bonus disc featuring Mike Doughty's solo acoustic performance of Judas Priest's classic album BRITISH STEEL in its entirety.

'While the move is seemingly a strange one for sensitive troubadour Doughty, he's proud to be...

Ah--I got picked for jury duty. DANG!

james:
WILL DO! consider yourself emailed...
annearchist:
I got one, too! I've never done Jury Duty anywhere, let alone in NYC. They compensate you a $5.00 pittance in NJ, but there was no mention of anything at all on this one. I guess I'll pay my own subway fare.

Keep us posted on how that goes if you do go, as opposed to getting out of it because of the tour.

Actually, keep us posted either way. smile

I'm in Austin now. Trying to scam a lift to the Salt Lick, BBQ capital of the known universe, which is 30 minutes outside the city. My piano player, Handsome Dan Chen, knows peeps with a car...fingers crossed.
