So cute and so sad! Check out Moedog Darling’s “For Me, For Us, For You,” available for listening on her MySpace page. The playful (and addictive) ditty is about ghost town bookstores and libraries under siege. Sound familiar?

‘FOR ME, FOR US, FOR YOU’: MOEDOG DARLING SINGS ABOUT ACRES OF BOOKS
September 26, 2008ONCE UPON A TIME AND A VERY GOOD PLAY IT WAS
June 18, 2008Alive Theatre’s ‘Lucia Mad’
If you’re turned off by the fictionalization of historical events, if you were a young artist when you first read James Joyce (and understood Finnegans Wake), and if you consider Samuel Beckett a kind of role model, consider Lucia Mad, Don Nigro’s play about Joyce’s disturbed daughter and her unrequited love of [...]
LONG BEACH CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERS ART MUSEUM AUDIT TONIGHT
June 17, 2008Yes, it’s true: the big day is finally here and at its 5 p.m. meeting Long Beach City Council will finally consider the first of two audits of Long Beach Museum of Art. (The second audit comes next month.)
BEEN THERE BEFORE
June 9, 2008It was exciting voting for the first time. And my candidate won! Now the war would end and my friends would come home—it was June 4, 1968.

CHECK OUT FOXBORO HOT TUBS TONIGHT
May 28, 2008Green Day’s formally unattached “Kinks-ian” “throwback” (not to be misread as “throw-up”) band swoops through Alex’s for a pretty choice date on a limited Southern California tour elsewhere booked into the Roxy.

May 15, 2008Check out how I finally wired the turntable into the computer. I got to get a pair of new needles/cartridges if anyone can point toward a deal since the thing I’m using now is a rusty hook I pried off a jawbone at the beach. These are actually records I got next to the set-up [...]
CITY TO MARSHALLS: SHOP ON!
May 6, 2008This probably won’t be the last any of us hears of plans to tear down the vacant Roberts department store on Atlantic Avenue and put up a Marshalls store, but at yesterday’s Redevelopment Agency board meeting, the board approved what the Press-Telegram’s Karen Robes calls “third-stage design plans” for the Marshalls.
RECORD STORE DAY
April 18, 2008It’s a digital world, but Saturday is time to celebrate the birth/rebirth/perpetual demise of physical music media with Record Store Day.
DINE OUT LB
April 17, 2008Dining out isn’t always a noble or even economical cause, but tonight’s a different story. That’s because dozens of restaurants all through the county will be taking part in this year’s Dine Out LA, a one-day fundraiser to help combat homelessness and hunger in those affected by AIDS.
FLICKR PHOTO CONTEST
March 6, 2008It’s been a busy year here at The District and it’s about time to give some thanks to you, our readers.
