I'm sorta obsessed with the Frontline narrator...his voice is like...butter.

Anyway, I was finally reminded to google him by a BMW commercial...anyhoo...here's some info on the dude (I'm too tired to write any more -- do your own research damnit!):

Your Birthdate: January 30

You have the type of personality that people either love or hate.
You're opinionated, dramatic, intense, and very outspoken.
And some people can't get enough of you - they're totally addicted.
Others, well, they wish you were a little more reserved.

Your strength: Your flair

Your weakness: If you think it, you say it

Your power color: Scarlet red

Your power symbol: Inverted triangle

Your power month: March

Lyrics:

Oh nothing's gonna change my love for you
I wanna spend my life with you
So we make love on the grass under the moon
No one can tell, damned if I do
Forever journeys on golden avenues
I drift in your eyes since I love you
I got that beat in my veins for only rule
Love is to share, mine is for you

Venue: United Palace Theater [part deux]

As discussed, Bjork will be performing at the Washington Square Heights venue the United Palace Theater.

The Times took a little trip (if you're a University student, hopefully you registered for your free Times Select service) and took some pictures. They describe the building's architecture as "Byzantine-Romanesque-Indo-Hindu-Sino-Moorish-Persian-Eclectic-Rococo-Deco."

Venue: United Palace Theater

Never knew this place existed until I noticed one of Bjork's NYC stops was gonna be there (in addition to the Apollo theater, and Radio City).

So, the UPT is on the corner of 175th and Broadway (4140 Broadway) and Bjork isn't leading the pack of cool acts. Some of the upcoming performances include: Cedric the Entertainer, Bloc Party, Iggy and the Stooges, The Isley Brothers, and Modest Mouse (and you can't miss the Spring Bling Bash Reggaeton Concert on 4/14).

In trying to get more info on the venue, I found this Gothamist blurb:

It Sure Beats Roseland and Irving Plaza
While nothing is going to match the Arcade Fire in terms of NYC on-sale buzz, a couple other big bands quietly put tickets on sale for somewhat special sets. Bloc Party quietly announced 2 shows at The United Palace Theater on 175th street in Washington Heights. Can't vouch for the venue, but gotta give the band credit for trying to mix it up a bit instead of playing the same stale clubs they've already hit on their first few swings through the states. If you missed out on the extended presale this week, tickets go on sale to the public tomorrow at 11am. We're also hearing rumblings that Bowery Presents is angling to buy this place, and that (who else?) The Arcade Fire could be back to play here when they make their return to New York. So despite all the question marks still lingering, this may not be the one-off rock show it appears to be. Stay tuned...

Part Harlem revitalization, part continued Washington Heights gentrification? Either way, pretty interesting...(I wonder if it's a good venue...).

At first, I was looking for my laffy taffy...but in the end, I'm happy I found true affection
