A friend of mine, George Yachtisin, who once wrote for the Independent and now serves as publicist for UCSB's Arts & Lectures (that's how I met him), has now started his own blog called I'm Not One to Blog, But...
He claims that "in order to put the spurs to the pony that is my dwindling imagination, it seems necessary to see if I can keep one of these [blogs] going." He also hopes that the blog will be a daily musing on a random song, "or, I should say, let a song lead my writing."
The first entry is on Phil Manzanera/Brian Eno's Big Day, which shows the man has taste.
Welcome aboard, George...
