There is some really awesome music on Myspace. Mostly from undiscovered artists who don't get any air-time on radios and wouldn't not see the light of day, very quickly, were it not for this amazing age of the internet. Even with Rupert Murdoch and NewsCorp, parent company of Myspace, angling for mind control and profits, Myspace still accomplishes something.

My current favorite is David Turpin, an artist who reminds me of the Pet Shop Boys or the Cure with a subdued new agey feel. I'm a long-time fan of British art rock: Bryan Ferry, Roxy Music, Crowded House, though they are Australian. David Turpin's music is free to listen to at myspace.com/davidturpin.

We are opera-goers and we thought it'd be fun to meet another couple to hang out and chat with at opera. Wow, we see all these people that we don't know. We're a couple with children, but we'd rather not talk exclusively about our children.
