25 Most Played From 2007
Ok, in keeping with my "25 Most Played Albums from 2006". I feel like it's past due but still going to do 2007's before I start on 2008's in a few months. I really enjoy looking back on the releases as a whole year's worth instead of just popping up all the ones the …

Narrow Stairs, the bootleg.
Ok, so I totally fell for what has to be one of the most downloaded pranks to date in the bootleg world. I got a message from a good friend saying- "hey, I'm about to get a bootleg of the new Death Cab For Cutie album... I'll send it your way when I get home." Wha?? …

Pretty Odd, indeed.
So, for some reason I picked up the new Panic! at the Disco album, Pretty. Odd. A fitting title for me since up to this point I've kind of despised the band. No reasons in particular- I guess, mostly just because they seemed to be an overnight success and I'm a cautious …

Busy Bee
Man, owning a home is quite time consuming at times I haven't had to seconds to turn around in a while. I also am doing a project for a band called Seabird doing their new album art. They're a really cool band that has a good sound (http://www.myspace.com/seabird) and …

Moving Day Approaches... again.
So an update for those that don't know- my wife and I bought a house in East Nashville on the 31st of January! It's a 1945 Tudor-style brick house in Inglewood, we've been painting the interior rooms all week, I'm exhausted. We should be moving a lot of stuff this …

A blog specifically titled: Californication
Californication is a term, not a word. I have been reading several news posts about the law suit involving Anthony Kiedis and Showtime and I have to say: stop it. Oh-My-God. Guess what folks! We've got ourselves another Metallica on our hands. How big do the money piles …

Say Hi to this Deal
Just thought I'd post a quick note about the new Say Hi To Your Mom Album, The Wishes And The Glitch which is set to be in stores February 5th of 2008. I went by the official site today and was pleasantly surprised that you can get the album now if you buy it in a …

BV3K lives.
So I've been a huge fan of Bran Van 3000 since my exploration into my subconscious that I started in the late 90's. Let's just say I wandered a bit after high school, and they provided a very memorable soundtrack to my alternate reality. I was blown away with the …

(Fork and Knife)
So, Brand New released a single song on iTunes the other week called "(Fork and Knife)" and it's pretty interesting- I recommend downloading it for sure. For one, it's a piano based song that's pretty mid-tempo, but it's still a really good song. I'm happy they put it …

Flock: prepare to love again.
I know the last thing people want to hear about is another web browser- ok, maybe that's bs, I love to. Just downloaded Flock (http://www.flock.com) and this thing is effing great. The media toolbar is so handy, as well as the webclipboard for saving sweet little photos …

Kings of the Show
Last night I went to the Ryman to see Manchester Orchestra & Kings of Leon- oh yea, Black Rebel Motorcyle Club (which I will now refer to as BRMC) played too. Aside from them, the show was brilliant. Going in I knew Manchester Orchestra would A) be awesome and B) no one …

A Modest Show with good intentions.
I went to see Modest Mouse at the Ryman Auditorium last Wednesday night and it was a pretty good show. Of course they had Hatch Show prints- so I was a happy camper. I had 2nd row seats so I'm a little bias on the overview that others may have had. The line up started …

Look-A-Likes
There is nothing more interesting to me when people look like other people. It's like there really is only so many ways to bake a cake that eventually- things get repeated. There are tons of celebrity look-a-likes, but my favorite is when 2 celebrities look alike! oh …

FLUGTAG!
Man! what a hot exhausting day at riverfront park! It was totally worth it though, the Red Bull Flugtag came to Nashville today and was so much fun! My buddy Greg and I had to go check it out as I have been seeing commercials for these Flugtag events for years now, and …

25 Most Played Albums from 2006
// 25 Most Played From 2006 //
Ok, I know we're at the half way mark of 2007, being that it's June, but I would like to put a new spin on "the best albums in 2006" by making it my "25 Most Played Albums from 2006". I feel like it's always a little early to make these …

The Modest Code
Ok, after I typed that title I realized this blog is not going to live up to it. This is not a scandalous tale of obscene behavior, but rather one of how over thinking can make you want to beat your own ass. I recently found out Modest Mouse & Band of Horses are coming …

Cursive, At Forty.
I went to see Cursive last night at Exit In, a small club about two miles from my house, and it was definitely in the realm of good. I had seen them back in October at City Hall, a bigger venue on 12th, but was sure the smaller atmosphere would suit them better for …
Decemberists loves Threadless
I have wanted to enter a Threadless contest for a while now and never found the right one, or time to do it. This one was so fun I had to enter. It was for the Decemberists and even more specific, the...
Almost Death: by a Ham Sandwich
Would I go back to Which Wich? (new sandwich shop on West End)Yes. But I'd need two bags; one for me, and one for the guy holding the gun to my head.I spent all day Saturday inside, yes yes it was a b...
Earth Day, 420, & Zach Galifianakas!
Happy Earth Day / 420! - and a Friday ta' boot. It proves to be a promising day; if I can make it through work- blah. I'll be heading to see Mr. Zach Galifiankias at Murphy Center tonight so I thought...
