            <title>Olympic Fever</title>
            <link>http://jakenewton.com/blog.html/olympic_fever</link>
            <description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been watching the Olympics non-stop. Now I&#8217;m not a sports fan by any stretch of the imagination, I watch the superbowl for the commercials and the Half-time show, I thought that Fantasy football meant that mythological creatures were involved, but there&#8217;s something about the Olympics that sucks me in like a black hole for the two glorious weeks they grace our televisions. The Closing ceremony always gives me the feeling of the last day of camp, You know that you&#8217;ll see these people again, but it will be a long and boring season of Baseball scandals and football player arrests before you can watch your beloved curling/biathaloning/speedskating buffet of human interest stories.  You see, with the typical professional sports, for me at least, feel like they&#8217;re trying to stab my eyes with product placements. It overshadows the spirit of competition, the driving, striving urge to break world records for the sake of humanity&#8217;s betterment.<br />    The Olympics have that in spades, it&#8217;s People doing things that no one else has ever done. Every time you turn the TV on. Pretty Cool.  Oh, and someone is always recovering from an injury while Bob Costas weaves a tale of triumph and heartache, like watching various versions of an 80&#8217;s sports movie. I. freaking. love. it.<br /><br />I also was given the opportunity to work on a track with Ben Lee and Fiona Apple for Margaret Cho&#8217;s upcoming album, she was a sweetheart and gracious beyond measure. And she liked my banjo playing. So she&#8217;s good in my book.  Her record should be coming out this Fall, Look for it!!!<br /><br />In recent press the music/Culture hub <a href="http://www.Bloginity.com">www.Bloginity.com</a> ran a feature on me, they&#8217;re some solid journalists/hepcats with a lot going on for them, and I'm proud they lent their talents to a story on yours truly.<br /><br />For The Los Angelites I&#8217;m Playing Thursday March 4th at 7PM, go to <a href="http://www.hotelcafe.com">www.hotelcafe.com</a> for more info. East coast, I&#8217;m flirting with coming out to see you. But it always helps to have people persuade me, Any thoughts on where you want to see me, or if you want to host a house concert give a shout out back to info@jakenewton.com<br /><br />That's all for now friends, Now back to Bob Costas.<br />Jake]]></description>
