Sometimes people ask me what Twitter is all about. I try to explain that I'm a fan of any tool that lets people communicate in new and more efficient ways, and that even though 99% of the time it will be useless gibberish some people will find genuinely good uses for the new technology. One example is how it lets you connect with musicians in a very new and personal way. You can hear about their latest song developments, what they're working on, etc. It was great at SXSW hearing artists talk about their upcoming shows, comment on recent performances, etc.

So, why am I mentioning all this? I saw Bomani Armah at SXSW this year and thought he was fantastic. The girlfriend loves his stuff too, although I don't think she quite got all of it. Turns out my suspicions were correct.

See that? Bomani thinks my girlfriend is hilarious! The actual lyrics are Buy some land, buy some land, fuck spinning rims. She was close.
