Wayne D's Blog

Having a blog is liking having a hungry monster. If you don't feed it dies. It seems that more than I like recently I have had great ideas for blog topics that I forget to write down and by the time I get to the keyboard I have lost them. I am experimenting with making notes but I tend to have these ideas when I am in the car or in the bed at night and I'm too crotchety to keep a notepad and a pen around all the time. That is way too obsessive for my tastes.

Time for some more CBC bashing. Now I love the CBC but sometimes they can be so irritating. Last year I went to their Easter Sunday Gospel choral concert. They plugged it like mad and had a PDF poster for it on their website. They are doing another concert Sunday morning, April 8th at 7 a.m. in the Barbara Frum atrium of the CBC building in Toronto but you wouldn't know it from their website. The main Choral Concert website is still plugging a concert from last December. On of the reasons CBC said they were messing with their radio schedule was because they wanted to attract a younger demographic. Doesn't the CBC know that anyone under the age of 40 is most likely to use the web as an information source? I probably should have blogged about this earlier in the week so the search engines would have had time to index it so people searching the web would have had a ghost of chance to find the information.

I saw Mika perform the other night on Jay Leno. The music is poppy and frothy but it grows on you. This afternoon I watched Mika live in concert from London on msn.com. By the third or fourth song I was hooked, I will be buying his CD. One strange thing I noticed is that there are two version of Mika's album on iTunes with slightly different track lists.

This months emusic downloads included about half of Wanda Sykes Sick and Tired, some John Williams movie music, My Sweet Lord sung by John Gary Williams, a Weird Al Yankovic track, a few of the shorter Monique Marvez tracks I left behind last time because they were less than a minute long and some other stuff I have forgotten about.

I did get a clue on why my traffic might have spiked, due to unusual confluence of posting I was the 10th on Google when searching for Kristin Chenoweth topless. I expect all the visitors who came to my website left disappointed.
