SIDE PROJECTS

Self-aggrandizing warning!

First of all, yours truly (Oliver that is) will be part of the upcoming (and ominously titled) "Death of the Critic" roundtable at USC's Annenberg Center next Wednesday, 9/24. Expect much hand-wringing and bemoaning of the state of popular music to ensue!

No, seriously, my friend Ann Powers lined up a really smart panel for this, including Ernest Hardy and Lorraine Ali. It's an honor to be in their company.

Second, I realize I never bothered to mention that I had a new mix-CD available called Deep Covers 2: Mas Profundo. I know many Poplicks readers keep tabs on my Soul Sides site as well but for those who don't, and want to hear a sampling of my musical interests, please check the mix-CD out. There's a special giveaway right now for people buying one before the weekend.
