		<title>Summer Time Blues News&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This usually happens around this time of year.  I go away a lot, especially on excursions north to the Maine coast and to some weddings, which drags down my blogging capabilities.  It also doesn&#8217;t help that I&#8217;ve started a political blog.  Lord, when will I stop blogging, I ask.  Never, I say.

		<description><![CDATA[CoCoComa from Chicago

I received an email this morning from a long time PR contact.  She use to be with Cornerstone way back and then moved to Vice Records for a long time where we constantly heard about this wild and crazy band called the Black Lips.  The next move for her was to Pitchfork to [...]]]></description>
