someday love will find you

A Magazine profile of Jon Brion, musical genius and pathological perfectionist. I think this article spends less time on "Jon Brion can play anything in any style" stories than any other I've seen, which is a big plus.

An awestruck fan interviews Steve Perry and the other guys from Journey. I'd put the Dave Eggers excerpt here, but I gave my copy to another Dave.

"Can the New Napster Survive?" Who cares? But I thought it took some nerve for someone from BuyMusic.com, the iTunes ripoff for Windows, to say "We're the first to interact with consumers on a digital platform".

A great article about Philadelphia's new Constitution museum.

And a feel-good piece on how nice New York was during the blackout, especially compared with the one in 1977. More historical context but less awesomeness than [livejournal.com profile] rollerboogie's story. (Also, a companion article notes that it wasn't nice for everyone.)
