Couple weekend ponderings for your perusement:
· The music I keep hearing in the commercials for
Trigger Happy TV sounds like a blatant ripoff of
Elastica and maybe mixed with a little
Blur. Anyone else hear this?
· Not that I care, but what the hell happened to
Jewel? The fact that her new
video is all "tongue-in-cheek" satire on the pop genre seems like piss poor cover for her
new look (Jewel or Gwen Stefani? you decide). Or maybe it's just an all too clever way of getting her some publicity because noone cares about her poetry books.. either way, she's alienating her fanbase and going fast against the "image" (aka personality) she seemed to have developed for herself over the past 5+ years. Bothersome.
· On a personal note, I think I've gone full-bore into adulthood. I enjoyed the result, and the process, of giving my house a good spring cleaning. Man, who'd a thunk I'd be adverse to dust someday?
· Current musical selections for you to discover:
+/- - find the song "Crestfallen".. that's my current jam,
No Knife -get "The Red Bedroom" or "Fletchette" mmm,
Aireline - the album sounds better than I could have thought.. get "Legionnaire" or "Traveling Through Dangerous Scenery",
Monochrome - "Angelfire" is great.. I wish I could find more that wasn't on vinyl (you can hear the song
here).
That is all... hopefully we'll have the Internet back at work tomorrow.
