My name is Phillip. I’m a 26 year old account planner,or brand planner, or strategist or whatever you want to call it for an advertising agency in Dallas Texas. My job entails explaining a lot of things which is why I really like it, but I do have a secret desire to be a music critic for one of those really trendy and pretentious music websites (see: Pitchforkmedia or Cokemachineglow). I’d wear ill fitting pants and ironic t-shirts, drink pabst and hate any band that got remotely famous. But I digress. This blog is built to be a way to chronicle what I’m thinking and reading about on a daily basis, therefore most of it will be stuff I run into at the office. In the end I want to keep a record of things that I see and think during the day. If it helps me focus on interesting stuff then its served its overall purpose. “the way to be interesting is to be interested” -R.

Basically, they take bands (that I like) and have them perform somehow in public. Its based in France but this performance by REM was filmed in their hometown of Athens GA.
