Today's small-world moment: reading today in Rolling Stone where M.I.A. is now engaged to Benjamin Brewer, who fronts NYC's The Exit as well as doing double duty - as the son of Warner Music chief Edgar Bronfman Jr. How 'bout that. I met Benjamin years ago at a tiny show in the basement of Club SAW here in Ottawa, capacity perhaps 60. Wow.
Also stolen without recompense from RS(like they need our money): not to be outdone by the Guitar Hero folks putting out games devoted to Aerosmith and Metallica, the Rock Band kids are throwing us a curveball, announcing their intention to release their playalong version of Pixies' Doolittle album in its entirety. Didn't see that one coming.
