We were getting a couple of hits coming in from 248am.com and were wondering what all the hoopla is about. It turns out that they featured an interesting post on the most-read Kuwaiti blogs (by way of Fereej). According to Alexa, which a great website to track the progress of blogs, Loft965.com is the 2nd most read Kuwaiti blog in the world. Yes, siree! And it is also the youngest blog in the top 10. Now, that’s something to be proud of. We already knew that though, but now it’s out in the open. When we started we wanted a worldwide audience and didn’t concentrate on the local and it’s paying off. It’s been a great 2009 for the Loft. And we can’t wait for 2010. Good times!

Broadway Nowaday: “Ragtime” is out of time?

The broadway show Ragtime has been called off after 28 previews and 57 showings. We were lucky enough to attend one of such showings a few weeks ago. The news was shocking as the performance was amusing and the music was delicious.

Ragtime (Ragged-time) is a musical genre well-popular in New Orleans and St. Louis’s red-light districts between 1897 and 1918. Ragtime, the broadway show, was based on a novel by E.L. Doctorow. The story-line is about African and Jewish immigrants adhering to the American Dream. It merges three societies, the whites, the blacks, and the jews. Guess what brings them together? Music.

Sadly, the show will end this Sunday January 3rd, 2010 due to slow ticket sales that failed to cover weekly costs. Investors will be losing their initial capitalization of $8 million. We vote to keep the show running using additional capital for marketing efforts. Firstly, major changes should be done for their outdated banner!

Premiere: Video: “Who I Am” by Nick Jonas and The Administration

We rarely follow disney stars of this generation, we even thought that Taylor Swift is a disney damsel before being informed lately that she is a Nashville starlet. This solo effort sounds a little better, but only because it borrows heavily from John Mayer’s style. It’s Ok. That’s all.
