Damn you KROQ. I’ve been listening to you all frickin’ day to find out when Almost Acoustic Christmas tickets go on sale… and you STILL haven’t played it. I have to leave work soon and go see Mute Math play. If anyone feels like picking up 2 extra tickets, feel free to do so. […]

This song is the #1 overall single in the country right now. Seriously. Not Katherine McPhee, not some country dude, not some crazy hip-hop song (Jibbs, I’m talking to you)… The Shins. I know it’s become incredibly cliche to cite them as any favorite music related title ever since the Garden State hubub, but […]

Words cannot describe the show I saw last week. If you have a chance to see them, DO NOT MISS IT. By far, the best production I have ever seen in a show and will ever see. I walked out of the concert with my jaw hanging open in awe. And I only knew 2 […]

I ran to the Promenade over the weekend and grabbed a coffee at the Hear Music Starbucks. I initially knocked these glorified versions of the coffee chain - they have computers and techs all over that allow you to compile and burn a CD with tracks of your choosing. Most everyone has a CD burner […]

Ok, ok… it’s not here yet. But today marks the official day I’m allowed to play Christmas music without getting stared at all weird by Christopher (that happened when I tried it yesterday) or anyone else. You may have noticed that I took the day off yesterday, but cooking an entire Thanksgiving meal, just […]

Yeah, I’m goin with the explicit title. I was not at all excited for the new Snoop album. I don’t know, he just usually doesn’t do it for me. I’m not gonna lie… he kind of scares me (which is why there is no picture for this post). Anyway, I heard this song randomly on […]

I’m pretty much in love with every song on this album. I kept changing my mind about which song to post, but decided on this one b/c it garners the most buzz with it’s heavy subject matter. I am SOOOO mad that I missed this live. I heard it was amazing and I can […]

This band is a liiiiil screamo. And they’re covering Frou Frou. Quite interesting, yes? Surprisingly, I like it. Probably b/c this song is so amazing. And I like the completely polar opposite take on it. We’re gonna try something… Download this song thanks to Stereogum by right clicking the link below and choosing save target […]

It may be a lil too Nick Drake-esque, but I like what I like. I don’t care… If it sounds good to me that’s all that matters. This is a really great song. It’s a side project from a dude in Voxtrot. You can order his EP (like I did) from his website. But if […]

I wanted to thank Ryg for the fabulous entry. Definitely makes me mad that I missed them when they were in LA last week. But I have 2 bits of good news about that:
1. They now have a live CD from a show at The Echo last month on iTunes:
2. They’re opening […]
