sariflor Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Monday, May 12, 2008 My one day off in Connecticut, rain, and itchy scalp Im sitting 45 mins outside of New York, planning the last few days of my US trip. I've been here for 12 days now but only have two more to go. As I started searching through the internet and going through comments and messages on myspace as well as spying into various forums(the latter always being a bit of a dangerous activity), it became clear to me that I needed to write something and let people know what I'm up to. Tonight I'm off to watch Tegan and Sara at Terminal 5 in New York. If you don't know them, check out their song Back In Your Head. Its pretty damn good. They're playing the very same place that we all took over a few months ago. I'm also going to be checking out the illustrator Sophie Blackall's studio in Broklyn. I've spoken about her before. She illustrated a brilliant children's book called Ruby's Wish. Its been a busy few weeks. Mainly, I've been working on the new album. Writing and demoing. But I've also been planning a few other things. Mainly my website and my short festival run in July. I have decided to redesign my website and change the way that I've been approaching what I do online. From the very beginning, I always wanted a website that not only represented me, my music and my visual world but something that could take on a life of its own. I never really had a chance to make this happen the way that I wanted it to. SO... I have formed a small team, and together with them, I am going to write about what I'm up to on a regular basis. Posting things that we love from around the world as well as creating new art, cartoon strips, short films and loads more. Ambitious? yes! but fun too. and thats the point. I suppose that as we have become less broke, creating things like this have become more possible. I know that if I started a normal blog people wouldn't be interested in reading what I was having for breakfast or which other musicians I think are asses. So that's not the point. Think of it as bit of an online scrap book. We are going to start building the new site really soon and we will be looking for your help. So keep your eyes peeled for how you can get involved. As for the July run of shows. You can find out where I'm gonna be on the LIVE section of http://www.mikasounds.com I will post the dates up here by tomorrow. I have to say one more thing. I notice that the past few months I've been getting loads of messages and comments from people in the United States and especially from South America. I'm really proud of what's been happening with my music in Argentina and Mexico, Venezuela and all over South America. I am thanking you to high heaven for giving me an excuse to tour over there on my next record. Can't wait! Right my ride to the city has been waiting for me for 45 mins. Its almost five and I havent showered or eaten yet. My hair smells as i have refused to wash it on a "natural" wash experiment I've had going on. Now that it itches, I've had enough. Screw natural. My scalp needs chemicals. a bientot, Mxx

hotdlp Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 It's nice actually, seeing something written from him after so long. Can't wait to see about the new website design. And he says it'll be happening soon.. now can we rely on him on that? And it was very sweet to him to mention South America, looks like you will get to see mika sooner than you think guys!
hotdlp Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 I don't do mine everyday either. It becomes dry if I do that. Isn't it bad for your hair anyway if you wash it everyday?
babspanky Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 Isn't it bad for your hair anyway if you wash it everyday? Supposed to be, strips it of all of its natural oils.
