Confirming What We Knew: RIAA Is Not Paying Up

I have not made the time to write up a post on this, so here is just a quick bit. The linked-to article is about how the RIAA’s contractor for delivering royalties to artists is not doing their job. The company claims they can not “find” the artists, which include Public Enemy.

It probably is not surprising given that the company gets to keep what it can not dole out.

MIA in DC

No Del for DC. What’s he up to anyway?

And DC but not Pittsburgh misses out on Matmos. I almost headed to NYC earlier this year for a show but decided against it. Too bad they won’t be in Philly or NYC when I’m there this month.

Last, Albert Hammond Jr. of The Strokes is skipping town, playing just about everywhere on the East Coast that’s not DC.
