The Pink Razors from Richmond, VA are sweet.

Oneida is especially good to listen to when you're sick and zoned out on cold medicine.

Skelletones is fucking huge now.

I'm pretty sure Craig is playing bass in Cavalcade as of this past Sunday. He is also living on my couch for the time being.
(this reminds me, Josh, I would like to talk to you soon)

Erin is deceptively amusing on multiple levels. Most notably, her penchance for drawing Gary Glitter.

Is there a more amusing and mysterious character in pop culture than Gary Glitter?

Gone Wired and Magdalena's are insanely untapped potential at the moment...not to mention, on my block.

The Eastside neighborhood of Lansing that I live in gets infinitely cooler every day...well, minus the serial arsonist.

I just sold two Alkaline Trio records for a grand total of nearly $150 on eBay. I have the music on celluloid anyways, and I need the scratch at the moment. Kids are seriously insane.

I hope to be attending the ULTIMATE FISHING SHOW (that's bolded because it is on the ticket which is of a $9 value) at the Novi Expo Center either Thursday or Friday with one Mr. John Krohn. I have an assload of free passes to this, so if you have an even remote interest in fishing, and/or myself and John Krohn, you should, you know, "get at me."

As per my Christmas gift, I will be adding an inked artistic rendering of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald to the Michigan folklore cluttering my right arm next Monday.

Also, this weekend, the Bomb's 'Indecision' skyrocketed itself to the very top of my list of favorite albums of 2005...a list that would probably also include (in no particular order):
Smoke or Fire -- 'above the city' (this year's version of Challenger's 'Give the People What they Want in Lethal Doses last year...instant gratification, not a whole lot of depth)
Trail of the Dead -- 'world's apart' (losing all music geek credibility for enjoying this "as an album" more than Source Tags & Codes)
Prodigal Sunn -- 'the Return of the Prodigal Sunn'
Hell or Highwater -- 'dichotomy of the damned' (say I'm biased all you want, but it's fucking great)
LaSalle -- 'expedition songs'
Om -- 'variations on a theme'
Pelican -- 'the fire in our throats will beckon the thaw'
Sufjan Stevens -- 'illinois'
the Blackout Pact -- 'hello sailor'
the Gibbons -- 'hope, inc' (the best smart/catchy punk rock album I heard all year...my top Michigan album of the year and probably top overall)
I probably forgot some, but those are 10+1 albums from 2005 definitely worth owning if you find that your musical tastes are even remotely similar to mine.
