in daphne's ever freakout about where to live in nyc, come august, i can now add this. even the alleys cost $10,000 a day.
saw debussy's le mer last night at the ri phil's 'rush hour' concert, which is the most offensively stupid, patronizing piece of junk attempt to draw a new audience that i have ever seen. (was given free tickets) let's give 'em one movement of the grieg piano concerto, two of debussy and, damn it, this fantasia doesn't split so we'll just have to play the whole thing. very frustrating as a lover of classical music who hopes to see if live a good, long life. anyway, i love that the phil has a huge female population, that larry rachleff maintains a decently 20th century rep. and that the biddies wear ratty minks (it's so reconstruction to me) although i fear that the mall and the lux. condos next door do it no service. i wonder? maybe everyone eats at the cheesecake factory beforehand, gets their parking validated at border's and just loves the set up...
LATE BREAKING: van hunt, right? it's pretty good stuff.
