So last Saturday I went to New World Brewery to FINALLY check out The Postmarks... if you read any kind of music mags you had to have heard about them by now. If not, you suck :)Anyway, Florida severly lacks in the indie music swing of things and this band is out of Miami so I was stoked to finally get to see a band that is blowing up and from my native craptastic state. Needless to say, they were
I know I can be a little "slower" when it comes to picking up on the newest internet music craze... hell I wasn't on Mog until November...But for those of you who have yet to discover Pandora.com... I implore you to go check it out ... This is really the best site in the whole wide world for people who spend a ridiculous amount of time searching for new music (i.e. me) I ALWAYS have it running in
Does anyone else act like a complete ass when driving around with good tunes blaring? I tend to attract unwanted attention but I just don't care ... I LOVE rocking out, singing at the top of my lungs, and of course trying not to be too distracted as I am bound to run in the back of someone's car one day and have to blame it on The Format. This morning, Ray LaMontagne eased me into my morning commu
Copied from my myspace... (not intended to be a plug... but it explains the first few sentences :))For once a top ten completely unrelated to alcohol consumption and its coinciding tales of making a total ass out of myself… Although this could make me look like an ass, to some… either way, inspired by Anthony, here is a list of my top ten albums for the year. No, they were not ALL released th
It's always a stretch to feel christmas-y in Florida... on this Christmas morning though, it just happens to be pouring down rain... I'm pretending it's snow.I am rocking out (if that's possible) to Devotchka, mainly because some smart sibling got me Little Miss Sunshine for xmas and that brought out my extreme need to hear them again... So here I sit on xmas morning, with a laptop, some good t...
You ever have those days where you just NEEEEED to hear a song 50 times in a row?lala.com FINALLY sent me Peter Gabriel's So which had experienced a tragic accident in my collection many months ago and not being able to impulsively listen to "Red Rain" or "In Your Eyes" was killing me... I don't even want to look at my iTunes to see how many times I have played it in the last 12 hours... for some
So cubicle country isn't exactly I like to find myself 5 days a week ... but with good music it makes it a little easier... Today I have been investigating Corinne Bailey Rae ... I'm not going to lie, I REALLY like it ... most chart toppers disappoint me but she def. lives up to the hype... if you like her sound that is, which I oddly do... not normally something I could get into for more than a t
So Filter mag definitely has it's faults as a mainstream indie mag... but with the cover story this month, they got me... John Krasinski interviewing The Shins... does life get any better? For me anyway... a long time fan of The Office (starting with the BBC, of course) and a long time fan of The Shins... I couldn't be more excited about this new album.. I have heard nothing but good things abo...
Finally Lucero is going to be in town and I don't have to work ... I got screwed I think 4 times while working nights in a non-profit org. they ALWAYS came on random weekdays... but FINALLY I get to see them ... sadly, due to the fact that I stopped working in non-profit ...but now I have more money and more time for shows... that's the same as saving the world... right?Either way, Lucero Weds....
I don't know if it's because i'm fasting all day and therfore my mind is not in the right place exactly but I am LOVING everything I listen to today ...I got two cd's in the mail this morning that were long overdue in my collection, Emily Haines and The Rapture... I only had time to listen to Emily on the way to work ... when the track started out with Bros before Hoes I about died... I love her h
