Mick Lally Dead

Sad to read today that Mick Lally died. He was familiar to generations of Irish people who watched Glenroe on Sunday evenings: http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/breaking/2010/0831/breaking16.html

Boston versus New York music listening compared

This handy widget (hat-tip to Momus) allows you to compare the Last.fm music listening tastes of Boston residents versus New York residents.

Results? Well, sadly it seems that while Boston residents listen to Coldplay and Eminem, New York residents listen to MGMT and Jay-Z. Radiohead tops both lists however.
