Our friend and frequent Y.P.R. contributor Mary Phillips-Sandy is in the news for offering a place to share stories of music once beloved and now forsaken. Check it out.

The scoop…

Everyone has a song that’s been ruined by an ex. Ruined Music is the place to talk about the music you’ve lost: the songs you can’t stand to hear ever again, that record she always played when she was over at your house, the band you went to see together a week before he called it quits, That Song that was on That Mix, the record that was playing the night you (fill in the blank), the album you got for a Valentine’s Day gift. But wait! You’ve got a story about a song that was ruined not by an ex but by a roommate, a bandmate, a former best friend, a bad trip, a teacher, or an ocelot? Great, we’ll take those too! Tell us your story. Feel better. Reclaim your record collection. Guidelines are here. And hey, we’re on MTV.

Just got back from the studio, Bedazzled is a go. What's all this about Blakey Edwards? Whatever, I'm sure P. Sellers will get the nod anyway (and the numerical title seems a bit off ... crazy Americans, they'd make a movie about the number ten for the hell of it). Anyway, see you round Elstree for first day's shooting.
Cheers,
Pete
