Best Music Writing 2009: Book Launch Event In NYC

It is thanks to you and the fine folks at NPR Music that I've been fortunate enough to write this blog for the last two years. I am proud to announce that four of my Monitor Mix pieces made it into Best Music Writing 2009, guest-edited by Greil Marcus and published by Da Capo Press. To celebrate the release of the book, there's a launch event on Monday, Nov. 2.

Finally, special thanks to my editors, Robin Hilton and Stephen Thompson.
