A Week Of Hanging With Philip Glass, Being Mistaken For a Food Inspector, And Writing, Writing, Writing

It’s been yet another very full week. I began it by publishing my profile of composer (and East Village Resident) Philip Glass on the cover of The Village Voice (with beautiful artwork by Berlin-based artist Siggi Eggertsson). Then, I followed that up with four articles about Glass on the Voice’s Sound of the City music blog on Glass’s South Park style birthday, the U.S. premiere of his Symphony No. 9,  an interview with David Harrington of the Kronos Quartet, and an interview with dj BC on mashing Glass up with the Beastie Boys and the Fugees.

Also, I cruised by the Voice news blog with reports on same-sex marriage in Washington state and some new numbers out regarding marijuana arrests and the NYPD, and I made my debut on the Voice food blog Fork in the Road with a report on being mistaken for a food safety inspector.

And I still feel behind the ball.
