Anul 2008 e clar anul concertelor pt Romania, sau probabil anul cu cel mai incarcat calendar de concerte, de pana acum.

Who let the dogs out? Who? Who?

Posted on April 13, 2008 by Bob

Last night party was a huge success. We celebrated the grand reopening of Downstairs Club, a place handcrafted to guest wild parties. Great music, great company, lots of friends and cheap (fairly priced) drinks. In the picture you can see one of the honorable guests, a clubbing doggie – the intellectual kind. I was a bit sorry to see such a mild creature surrounded by a crazy crowd, lots of smoke and loud music. BTW, although the place is huge … Continue reading →

Posted on March 12, 2008 by Bob

There are quite a few concerts happening this year in Bucharest and it was difficult to follow all the dates and concert info on several sites, so I decided to put together a list with all the important one. The list is in Romanian but I am pretty sure you will figure out who’s singing, where is the event taking place and where to buy tickets ;) There are 2 new updates for the concerts list: Manic Street Preachers – … Continue reading →

Firefox 3 beta 4

Posted on March 12, 2008 by Bob

I was very happy to try out the new betas of Firefox 3, but until now, they had a major issue – Google Reader was not working right – and this was pretty much a show stopper for me as GR is one page/app that I heavily use daily. With over 900 fixes since beta 3 and with focus on page loading speed and memory consumption, Firefox3 beta 4 is rightfully called Release Candidate 1. After RC2 we will have … Continue reading →

BUCIUM – event pictures

Posted on March 3, 2008 by Bob

The concert from last Friday was a great success – the sound was top quality (although the drums were a little to loud), the public was ecstatic. You can buy "Voievozii" album from Carturesti and Muzica stores in Bucharest and very soon in online stores. You can also listen to Bucium songs on the band’s myspace page. Here are some pictures from BUCIUM first official concert and "Voievozii" album release. Click to view the entire set.

Shine A Light – Scorsese and The Rolling Stones

Posted on February 28, 2008 by Bob

Guess what? April 4 – the new Scorsese movie – "Shine A Light" is being released and it’s all about The Rolling Stones. After producing "No direction home" (2005) a great bio of Bob Dylan, Scorsese now takes on the challenge to direct the bio movie of the grandpas of Rock. Just imagine a Rolling Stones concert filmed by one of the most talented directors and producers. Scorsese has made another fabulous concert movie using all modern techniques available. Scorsese … Continue reading →

WordPress 2.5 – give it a spin

Posted on February 15, 2008 by Bob

If you are anxious to see how WordPress 2.5 admin interface looks like you can give it a spin at this test site. Nothing very impressing – some optimized processes, a cleaner look&feel, insert gallery of images feature and that’s about it. Big fans of the former version will certainly have something to comment but I’ve always believed that newer is better …that until Vista :). I just hope they did not change the taxonomy again so designers&developers will not … Continue reading →
