005: Top of the Dome
Listen to the podcast (31.33 MB - 54:44)
Only a handful of songs on the slate, yet the show comes in at just under an hour worth of music and banter. Long play tracks rule! A solo effort recorded in one-shot take (finally!) where I babel about all manner of of things, including Podsafe music vs. defying the RIAA, Tom Cruise’s and the Supreme Court’s mental defects, and more. Just the kind of quality production you’ve come to expect from T.O.E.

Web Sites:
- The Cavalier Daily: Supreme Court rules against file-sharing firms - File sharing companies are now responsible for waht’s traded on their networks, even though the decentralized nature of the P2P beast makes it rather difficult to police. This is basicly a blank check for lawyers.
- Reuters: Key rulings from US Supreme Court’s 2004-2005 term - The way they split the Ten Commandments rulings just baffels me. I didn’t think it was possible for the high court to talk out of both sides of its mouth, but I’ve been proven quite wrong.
- Lorenzo’s Music Interview: Part 1 (The Spotlight) - The Spotlight Podcast takes over the first half of this interview with the band Lorenzo’s Music. Insomnia Radio Podcast host Jason Evangelho gets a crack at them next episode.
- The Dawn & Drew Show - Married podcasting. Having a shared hobby is a good thing.
- Relish Now: Fear not; Spielberg’s ‘War,’ while dramatic, is not credible - On the whole the review looks good, but due to Mr. Cruise’s actions as of late, I doubt I’ll spend the bucks to catch this at the theaters. That’s called voting with your wallet.
- Jambands.com: Organ and Drums: A Conversation with Marco Benevento and Joe Russo - Bready dug up this interview with the hottest act since sliced bread. A good read to be sure.
- The Mercury News: Testy Tom Cruise appearance on ‘Today’ raises eyebrows - Anyone else sick of Tommy boy’s preaching yet?
