I have a Blip.fm account. It's basically musical Twitter.

Unrelated, with the Blue Jackets down 3-0 to the Red Wings, they can at least take some solace in the fact that their fans still have some dignity...

 I did the whole "headphones on the fetus" thing with these songs:

Clash - Clash City Rockers
Who - Magic Bus
Talking Heads - Psycho Killer
Elvis Costello - High Fidelity
Oasis - Some Might Say

In related news, I'll put some more music on my Zune as soon as I get my charger cable back, it was in Memphis last week.

After approximately a six month layoff, I've gone back to my hockey project. I'm making myself start from scratch, since I got so cluttered up when I was doing this earlier. I have a basic timeline that I'm going to stick to, with a minimum of sidetracks. That said, there will be sidetracks because it's me we're talking about--I'd started a back ( Read more... )

I may FINALLY be departing my phone survey bondage--I have an interview with a lady at the Funny Bone, where they have a part-time opening for a soundboard operator. Me taking this job will likely depend on two things:

I damn near rocked my left middle finger off! Seriously, I gave myself a healthy cut on it while ripping through Pulp's "Common People" (well it's the Shatner-Jackson schizo-cover, but still). A good bit of blood.

Yeah, that guy's in the avatar for a reason :^D

Upon discussion with Eddie-Chris at work, I realized I misheard him the other day--it was not one of the Downhome Decadence people, but rather one of our coworkers who suggested that I be Frank-N-Furter. I still like the idea. Regardless, I'm going to be doing more in that end of things in the coming weeks and months.

I went down to the V-Club-- ( Read more... )

"The Rat Cage" and "Off The Grid", the first singles off the new Beastie Boys album. FYI, the album is ALL-INSTRUMENTAL.

Alexis reminded me the other day that I had a Last.FM account (well actually she said I should sign up, and then I remembered I already had an account open), so I'm now building up a listing on there. I've got several different digital music thingys that I've been using, including:

--music downloads
--stuff pulled off my CD collection
--XM
