So
regonym suggested I post my Rock the Fuck Out/Guitartastic/Anti-PMS playlist FOR THE GREATER GOOD. It's, like, five hours long, but here you go! Keep in mind, it's composed entirely of songs that are currently on my tiny, vastly-in-need-of-an-update iPod, so there are some fairly obvious gaps in the content. For instance, it should definitely have some The Darkness, AC/DC, and more My Chemical Romance, but. It's pretty awesome anyway.

In other music news, a very important question for you Portland folks (you know, the hordes and hordes of you on my Flist -_-;;): WHO WANTS TO COME TO THESE CONCERTS WITH ME?!
Ludo, Oct 5, Hawthorne Theater, $13
Sufjan Stevens, Oct 29, Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall... if anyone's serious about this we need to act fast because the prices start at $35 and go up from there... that's $35 for the very edge of the upper balcony/nosebleed section, next to the wall.
Finally... ATTENTION, BATMAN FANS. I simply cannot recommend this webcomic enough: Batman and Sons, by The Black Cat (The Dark Cat on LJ). It features... well, Batman and his sons, Dick, Jason, Tim, and Terry, with appearances by other DC characters and, of course, Alfred. Dick is 12, Jason is 9, Tim is... I dunno, 6ish? And Terry is a tiny adorable baby. Everyone wears their costumes ALL THE TIME. The comic is full of hijinks and hilarity and OMG ADORABLENESS and lots of sneaky references to the canon, both classic and current. FANTASTIC. The order you read them in doesn't really matter, I don't think. You can poke around in her
DA Gallery or her
Livejournal. Or you can start where I did with one of her longer stories, "Mr. Bat-Mom",
here and
here on LJ, or in her DA Gallery. It's hilarious, especially Part 2.
