When I Was Young, We Had To Crawl Uphill Through Snow To Find Kids' Music

Mrs. Davis has an interesting post (and I have a comment on it) about whether there's something new going on, kids'-music-wise.

Also: Gosh, I wish we could go to this event. Fountains of Wayne and Alejandro Escovedo on the same stage? Dang, that'd be good. Alas.

Hey, thanks for pointing out Mrs. Davis's blog today. Very interesting. I dig the meta, gets my old philosophy major self thinking again. Scary, but fun. Love your thoughts.

Fountains of Wayne! I forgot about them. Your scope cracks me up.

Fountains of Wayne is terrific live. I so so wish they would do some kids' stuff.

hey bill,
This is completely off-topic, but not only have i HEARD of Webs, i (and thousands of crazy knitters around the world) have dreams of longing about Webs. lucky, lucky lady!!!

am trying to make a non-volunteer side-project of presenting events for kids (musical and--hey, why not? crafty)-- we have a son et briocheslive all-ages show on sunday here in town. you have a podcast? do you do live shows too? would you come to canada?

I kind of guessed you'd have heard of Webs. Most people seem to have. Dena started knitting after we moved here for career (my career) reasons; nice shop to fall into working at!

We've been working on booking some bands into this area -- so far the one Big Event was the Deedle Deedle Dees, and it went great. Canada sounds lovely, but I'm not sure what I'd do live besides play CDs, and hey, you can do that. And yep, we have a podcast - links over there on the right.

Send a note (show at sparetherock dot com) sometime...
