Steady posts every week for over a year and then nothing. We've unfortunately lost the use of our trusty computer and have yet to replace it. We are working on it though. Once we get the thing we'll try our best to make up for our extended absence. We'll post a bunch, we promise. In the meantime, I hope you all are drinking some good wine and listening to some good music.<br /><br /><br />See you soon............VINE-YL, The Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251308431721305748noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167010928023200718.post-64935308404193086402010-02-21T20:15:00.001-08:002010-02-21T20:17:26.186-08:00LED ZEPPELIN III & GRAFF FAMILY MOURVEDRE<a href="http://www.vine-yl.com/"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 126px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440916791110431938" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkiMq-dN2DZbKFD-JA5jQ5vnjYYHuNYVM5Qw9YSUm168VieAabff2hys8qeZU9vS-w0YFwl1MQhZ2uErmD1pVTCKM_jrJUUoXSXmQq7keI2zSTshbrDp8rwFF68o17rvo0bQbaPv0yKb8/s400/zep-III-mourvedre-post.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div>VINE-YL, The Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251308431721305748noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167010928023200718.post-19609482634613274312010-01-17T12:07:00.000-08:002010-01-24T18:37:46.543-08:00WE'LL BE BACK SOON!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwJdqsha-0iTOImATUh9hcBckiQ72vIxIZCz1JaC41_bP0FYTaQQmVXh1u2sLIiVeV42NAVhUVk8eP4mjclnSFSCaQz24jOAJc33DX1ln9AYTxbbxOewsrf1bHu4KQi9nk-39ADGait5Q/s1600-h/vineylhiatus.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 300px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430500677181376178" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwJdqsha-0iTOImATUh9hcBckiQ72vIxIZCz1JaC41_bP0FYTaQQmVXh1u2sLIiVeV42NAVhUVk8eP4mjclnSFSCaQz24jOAJc33DX1ln9AYTxbbxOewsrf1bHu4KQi9nk-39ADGait5Q/s400/vineylhiatus.jpg" /></a><br /><div>We've been on hiatus.

We loved the laid back, rock n' roll vibe of this hip new eatery (and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">drinkery</span>.)<br />The place specializes in the bounty that is the great state of California. The wine, beer and food is all sourced from local artisans. The menu is fantastic, with everything from small plates to hearty entrees. We loved the savory cheddar <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">gougieres</span> as well as the duck and pork dishes we tried. I have a feeling that anything you get there is going to be amazing as we tried several dishes and they were all delicious. I love the fact that they only serve California wine (I know you didn't see that coming), because it forces you to try things you might never have tasted. They have a wonderful selection of wines at surprisingly affordable prices. The bartenders are enthusiastic and know their stuff, which always make a visit to a wine bar way more enjoyable. They also have special events like winemaker dinners and live music on Sundays so we'll be sure to visit again. It may just be our new favorite spot downtown!<br /><div></div>VINE-YL, The Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251308431721305748noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167010928023200718.post-34772911381704688112009-10-24T03:47:00.000-07:002009-10-24T14:23:24.147-07:00DJ DAISY O'DELL'S VINYL LOVERS LOUNGE @ PALIHOUSE 10/23/09<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinkhOGFeGy2FjDTENVpT-GHflnYu13E4GVweF3dVuMhG5B84u4ieQga0MQhpef5TWtOGLZ08TOwZd_KIJoE4og8JNqIHD4dZVu_CPx9nl71WHYiXXgRicvJwq2r1Pb4sMmLcLZJtptGmw/s1600-h/photo-1.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinkhOGFeGy2FjDTENVpT-GHflnYu13E4GVweF3dVuMhG5B84u4ieQga0MQhpef5TWtOGLZ08TOwZd_KIJoE4og8JNqIHD4dZVu_CPx9nl71WHYiXXgRicvJwq2r1Pb4sMmLcLZJtptGmw/s400/photo-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396279501508142882" /></a><br /><div>Here's a tip: If you're renting out a restaurant for a wedding party, rent the whole space. </div><div><br /></div><div>Last night the patrons of Palihouse's lounge got the shaft (not to mention yours truly, who spent a good portion of the day pulling records) when the mother of the bride kept insisting we turn down the music for their courtyard wedding speeches.</div><div><br /></div><div>Major bummer.

Musso and Frank's is one of the best of these spots. From the old steakhouse decor to the old bartendars in red jackets, you feel as if nothing has changed there in 80 years. You half expect to see the ghosts of Hollywood past hunkering down in the darkened confines of the red vinyl booths. To top it all off, they not only make THE BEST MARTINI IN TOWN, they make one of the most affordable. $10 gets you an ice-cold martini with a sidecar good for two refills. Three martinis for the price of one; it's almost as if this place hasn't felt the recession that the rest of us have. It's protected from the horrors of the rest of the modern world, and when you step off of the crazy turmoil that is Hollywood Blvd into Musso and Frank's you'll feel protected too.VINE-YL, The Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251308431721305748noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167010928023200718.post-75421583343789449682009-10-22T13:06:00.001-07:002009-10-22T13:09:35.460-07:00NEW VINE-YL POST!<a href="http://www.vine-yl.com/"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 126px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395518712427266450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMp-LgXQInUD4pPXQlavqMT_265iMsPRtV5qXUUSZ8f5_2TktKMph4vgFZL0dzQ2hsv6DWYoBVwHkcUW1mZB7pKDNjJ2XLI4v3Ypux4ZlbRrk-zibZDXHx7HMTqwNmDujglm-Q8mkXitg/s400/les-donovan-mirth-post.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div>VINE-YL, The Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14251308431721305748noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3167010928023200718.post-21046998827760920752009-10-17T22:12:00.000-07:002009-10-18T01:08:54.837-07:00MATTHEW SANTOS LIVE @ HOTEL CAFE THIS WED. 10/21!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhphmTbo-cQUfOB7ssaQECjSXU_TmJMid-65HURahPHK7jEi1Hb5jDIryJksUgQCMFxM6vr9euYFgi8MJerrEzHY5OuB3P9v78jUiSySSAvxg9lSyqx2VlwYixTMgBN-P23he4R9DWq46E/s1600-h/LAdigital.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 259px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhphmTbo-cQUfOB7ssaQECjSXU_TmJMid-65HURahPHK7jEi1Hb5jDIryJksUgQCMFxM6vr9euYFgi8MJerrEzHY5OuB3P9v78jUiSySSAvxg9lSyqx2VlwYixTMgBN-P23he4R9DWq46E/s400/LAdigital.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393824265168967938" border="0" /></a><br />Contemporary folk-soul singer-songwriter Matthew Santos plays a solo show at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood this Wednesday, October 21, in support of a new, soon-to-be-released album.<br /><br />Santos arrives fresh off a 2008 Grammy nomination with hip-hop star Lupe Fiasco for the smash single "Superstar." Santos continues his successful collaboration with Fiasco in the widely viewed Youtube <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kip9kdcSouw&feature=related">video</a>, "Shining Down" from Lupe Fiasco's third album <span style="font-style: italic;">LASER</span>.<br /><br />I had a chance to speak with Matthew Santos last week. He's no stranger to L.A., having performed several times last year at Club Nokia and the Staples Center with Kanye West's "Glow in the Dark" tour, on Jimmy Kimmel, and of course the 2008 Grammy Awards.<br /><br />As a music buff more inclined to old school out-of-print vinyl and idiosyncratic small-label acts, I wasn't sure what to expect from a Grammy nominee with a smash hit under his belt.<br /><br />"Where are you now?" I asked Santos.<br />"Chilling at home, eating some potato chips."<br />"Is this a bad time?"<br />"Not at all," he replied, "just let me wipe the grease off my fingers."<br /><br />I knew right away I was talking to someone who hadn't let the bling or bright lights of his recent successes go to his head. A young, but seasoned performer in mid-stride looking to expand his audience, while sticking firmly to his folk-soul roots.<br /><br />Santos found a sizeable new following in the hip-hop world, but his true musical voice comes from rock and roll. He cites Jeff Buckley, Radiohead, Bjork and The Frames as major influences, as well as jazz icons Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald (catch his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXwJznxG2uU">scat singing</a> on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXwJznxG2uU">"Shadows in a Shoebox"</a>).<br /><br />When asked if his dual interests in rap and rock creates any professional schizophrenia, Santos responds, "I view it as a test of versatility. I love to be challenged by different approaches." For Santos, music, whatever the genre, is all about three things: soul, heart and passion. "It's the sweat you put into it that really shines through."<br /><br />I asked him if hip-hop fans were surprised by his mellow soul-infused folk-rock solo material. "The sound catches people off guard," he replied without hesitation. But Santos has built up a dedicated following of acoustic fans from his work on <a href="http://www.candyrat.com/artists/MatthewSantos/Bittersweet/">Candy-Rat records</a> and his Youtube live performances.<br /><br />With his upcoming album, Santos starts over from scratch. He acknowledges the opportunity to share the big stage with Lupe Fiasco, Kanye and others has enhanced and expanded his musical vision. "Lupe knows what makes a pop song hit, in general. He understands the energy of live performance."<br /><br />It is this energy that Santos looks to bring on his newest tracks, while maintaining his signature sound. The formula is a balance between tempo and speed. "It's a question of song dynamics and the element of surprise," he notes, citing Mogwai and Explosions in the Sky as examples of fellow artists with similar approaches: starting songs slow and simple, gradually building up the tempo until they become "apocalyptic anthems."<br /><br />"It's about adding weight, not speed," Santos asserts. With a philosophy like that, it's no surprise Santos prefers whiskey to wine. He's a big fan of the smoky Islay Scotches, Aardbeg and Laphroaig, but calls Jameson his poison "because it goes down so smooth."<br /><br />We can't disagree, but if you want to go vino at the show, VINE-YL recommends a red like a Joven Tempranillo from Spain: young, but lacking nothing in spice and character.<br /><br />Here's a <a href="http://www.vine-yl.com/Daughters">sample track</a> from the upcoming album. And <a href="http://www.vine-yl.com/Dayslikethis">another</a>, just for good measure.
