The Sorcerer’s Apprentice set
There’s never a shortage of filming going on around the neighborhood, so much so that most of the time I take them for granted, just checking the permits that go up to see how it effects my alternate side of the street parking game – a treacherous one in this area at that! I may recognize the production taking place, but usually keep it moving; although I have to admit there have been recent highlights, such as seeing Ice-T and Coco with their “his and her” Bentley’s when Law & Order SVU was being filmed here. The other, was the recent production for Disney’s “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice“.
Record Store Day
I subscribe to Bob Lefsetz’s email mostly for the shits and giggles I get reading his constant critique and blasting of the current state of the music industry, at times he can be very insightful with his observations, but in one of last week’s emails he wrote:
“As for Record Store Day…How laughable is that. If you’re salivating over this, you’re living in 1990, and hoping we go back to 1970. Record stores are dead. As dead as your Apple II. Some will survive, as dealers in antiquities and tchotchkes, but essentially everyone will buy online.”
