One Show Draws Nearer, Adrants Prepares for Liftoff

Gold_Pencil.jpg

Monday the 5th kicks off the One Show madness in NYC all next week. This may be your golden opportunity to stand in dark corners with me (!!!), get trashed, and make fun of those less fortunate.

I’ll be hitting cocktail events, awards ceremonies and after parties, most of which are listed on the AdGabber Events calendar. (I promise that, before Monday, I’ll separate the cocktail and after party events from their accompanying ceremonies so you guys can plan better. I’ve never used the calendar before, so I had a lot of Retarded Usability issues.)

The big event happens on May 7. The after party includes a performance by Bitter:Sweet, whose music I checked out last night and find kind of pretty. Except when they bust out with the harmonicas. I don’t like harmonicas.

Adrants will cover debauchery, awards and whatnot. For obsessive up-to-the-INSTANT stuff, follow me on Twitter. (If I start to drive you bananas, you can always hit snooze.)

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
