Sigur Ros' "Heima" Documentary Rated Number One By IMDB, Bjork Joins Band On Stage At Nattura Concert
about 1 year ago

Sigur Ros are smokin'! The band's 2007 documentary Heima was just named the Top All-Time Documentary by IMDB, the highly respected movie industry database. Heima, which followed the band on the 2006 tour of their homeland, beats out Martin Scorsese's Bob Dylan homage No Direction Home and all of Michael Moore's provocative films, despite Moore getting more votes.

Hello Mystery Santa Mogger!
11 months ago

My secret Santa has decided to continue to be a secret, and since I have not yet been able to deduce who it is and send a proper Mogmail thanking her (I think it's a her,, but who knows, maybe a he. Whoever it was has very nice penmanship, which in my experience tends to suggest female.) But the real skill was in figuring out not one but two excellent mixes! One for me, one for my wonderful son

Listening Skills

As I was laying on my couch listening to my Sigur Ros record this morning, old conversations floated to mind. Hoppipolla was playing, and I kept getting pulled into the sound of the music.

I think the...

Drunk, cause I drank drinks. Which makes me introspective and as such...Damn Sigur Ros (no I am not going to go into the character map for 83 minutes to figure out how to put the proper accents on this), Hoppipolla came on.

root canals and such...
over 2 years ago

So, I got to get a root canal yesterday. That was fun. During the whole thing, they had station crap from XM Radio playing. Seriously, is there anything worse than listening to Nickelback's "photograph" while having your tooth's root killed and pulled out? Or maybe a little Daniel Powter while they seal the tooth off? Gah. I should have gone to Dr. Giggles. I had to come home and listen ...
