at 16:35 cet		 Apropos Yo La Tengo
The experimental and alternative folkrock band Yo La Tengo has released a great album this year: And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out. Check out the mp3-samples, they have arranged some beats nowadays! And what a fortune: Yo La Tengo is on tour at the moment and they are coming to Europe in April. [tourdates april, mai]

You have read something about that guy and his latest album "Vodoo" in your newspaper or in a magazine? Heard something about him at your radiostation? You wanna see his body? Ok - eat it! So, and now you wanna see and hear more? Ok - have a real videoclip of a live-performance. But that´s no reason to write bullshit like spex does: "Ist man in Ruhe allein, kann man mühelos zu den Falsettmelodien seines Gesangs balancieren und im Takt der Rimshots weiterziehen, wie auf dem Kraterrand eines stillen Vulkans, bis man wieder beim Bass ankommt."

at 01:15 cet		 Jad Fair + Yo La Tengo
Pitchforkmedia is reporting that the world of movies has turned its camera on Half Japanese (the band of Jad Fair). Don't care a pap for that. More interesting is the report about "Strange But True", an album (22 tracks!) he did with Yo La Tengo - what a nice combination. I saw some concerts of Jad Fair in vienna a few years ago. Very crazy. Two strings were broken after the second song for the whole concert and he didn´t even (want to) notice it. After the concert he was playing two more songs just for me and a friend - unplugged, with an e-guitar! [Short mp2-samples of this album on cdnow]

Kurz: mica. "'Information im Musikzeitalter' steht für das mica im Mittelpunkt seiner Arbeit als zentrale Schnittstelle des zeitgenössischen Musikschaffens und -lebens in Österreich." Also wieder mal welche, die zentrale, virtuelle Schnittstelle sein wollen. Jedenfalls widtmete sich das Symposion micafocus vom 17./18.3 einer interessanten Themenstellung: mica focus mp3 recordings - reales Musikschaffen für einen virtuellen Markt. Dort gaben angeblich internationale Experten "Impulse für den sparten- und berufsgruppenübergreifenden Diskurs über Kernthemen der Kunst heute und stellen sich den dringenden Fragen der Gegenwartsmusik." Alles über mp3-streams anzuhören. Dabei waren u.a. Richard Pettauer (Libro), Friedemann Kawohl (Musikwissenschaftler), Sascha Kösch (de-bug Berlin), Dr. Margaretha Mazura (European Multimedia Forum Brüssel). Director von mica ist übrigens Peter Rantasa (rhiz).

The Beastie Boys have released their latest video "Start" exclusively in QuickTime format. The song and video appear on the "Alive" import single. It deals with nothing else than a man (Miho Hatori of Cibo Matto) dancing in front of a mirror. Read more on mired.com, where I found this video and who broadcast an assfull (soll heissen: arschvoll) of mp3s daily.

at 20:10 cet		 The new messageboard is quite new now!
So, I have got a new messageboard again and it´s my own now (onw/won/...). The old one was not handsom enough. And the very old one ... When will come the next one?
Unfortunately I am a little bit swamped with the perl-script. I did not succeed yet in configuring the script so that date and time are included in the postings. I am recuring me: If anybody is a bit familiar with perl and possibly able to help me, it would be extremely kind if you do so: klaus@tivision.at

faster download of the mp3s
As I can use the tiv-server again I have uploaded the mp3s to there again. Downloads should be much faster than from t0 (public netbase). Nevertheless, thank you Sven for accomodating me with some webspace.

Claudis Partykeller. Sometimes it takes me a long time to get the hang of some things. Partykeller is the weblog of the very and special Claudi. Which Claudi? Our Claudi! Famous for her excellent webdesign and from helma. And when you have a look at "her" futurezone you will get an idea from whom I have stolen. Nice greetings to Hamburg, Claudi.

Mr Langreiter, the tirolian webrocker aeh weblogger, is not only a spirited surfer and scanner of the net and knows everybody and every new evolution, he went also to the beauty-salon with his weblog recently. Very pretty. Sehr hübsch. Sprekken Sie Deutsch? No? What a pity. Langreiter daily is a german-language-weblog.

at 17:37 cet		 hi there!
I´d like to install a new guestbook. I want to run it with a perl-script in my own scgi-bin. I got it running with the guestbook of Matt´s Script Archive but have some problems with configuration. I can´t get the date into the postings. Is anybody of you out there a bit familiar with such "easy" scripts and wants to help me a bit? So call me please!
