The highlight of the last couple of weeks: The "Rock and Roll Fishing Show" video from Warped '08, featuring Travie discussing illegal fishing lures, Tim Williams' chestpiece and also John Oh pretending to be a trout. I wish they would make that show for real, because I would watch the hell out of it.
Also interesting: The Jay-Z documentary. It's beautifully lit and shot, and has some extended interviews with Jay-Z, and also John Mayer. Which was interesting in part because I never realized how much of a Brooklyn accent Jay-Z has until I heard him contrast to John Mayer.
Anyway, moving on: Travie was as usual a road warrior, ratcheting around from SXSW to LA to New York to Miami and many other places, promoting his solo album, visiting with various and sundry musicians while he was at it, and going to shows by 88 Keys, Alkaline Trio and Cursive. He also had quite a festive Easter (he got the most out of his ridiculous rabbit hat) and spent some time assembling toys.
