My 2009 music resolutions are to listen to more of the following artists:
1. Bruce Springsteen
2. Billy Joel
3. B.B. King
4. Jimi Hendrix
5. Marilyn Manson

So, sometimes I think maybe I should drop out of school and become a badass drummer.

Listening to The White Stripes just makes me wanna do that. I dunno, maybe I should move to Canada and marry Meg White.

All of the DVDs were in kinda random order, just placed on semi-organized shelves, so I'm going through now and sorting them by genre and ( ( Read more... )

Last Saturday I saw The Prestige....freakin' awesome (though I devised a much better ending in my head).

Wednesday, I saw The Fountain...amazingly affecting film. The only movie I've ever sat all the way through the credits for. It was just that type of movie. I felt like blowing my brains out afterwards.

And tonight I saw Tenacious D & the ( Read more... )

So The Bolt Colt was third in his debut, but it was a pretty good effort ( Read more... )

Why did no one mention Cake to me before now?!?!?! People know about these amazing bands and they just neglect to tell me about them ( Read more... )
