Music I've recently listened to
For some odd reason, people seem to enjoy when I post music that I’ve recently listened to. 2012 has been spectacularly dull so far. That being said, I’ve gone back and found a few treasures that I’d never listened to. Here’s a list:
(1) Discovery - “LP” (2009)
Simply put, this is a fun album to listen to. The keyboardist from Vampire Weekend is in the...
Please... Someone explain to me how this is...
Chat with friend about Madonna's halftime...
Let me just set up this situation for you -- I'm in one room and a friend of mine (PI) is in another room. I hear him yelling about the performance and engaged him in the following conversation.
PI: I have never been more entertained in my entire life.
Me: I really thought I used hyperbole more than anyone on Earth. You win though.
PI: No seriously. I've never been more entertained.
Me: That can't be true.

College Playlist
Last night, with the help of my friends, I embarked on a deep, dark journey. I, for some reason, was determined to come up with our “College Playlist.” This would consist of the songs that we played very loudly over our stereo system at parties and while playing ping pong. Because those are the only two things we did in college — partied and played ping pong. I came up with...
The best album I've listened to recently
Full disclosure — this isn’t a new album. Not even relatively. It came out in 1977, but I listened to it for the first time a few weeks ago. I’ve rocked out to it a bunch lately.
If you have a bit of time and don’t mind some hard rocking, punk-ish stuff then go listen to Iggy Pop and James Williamson’s “Kill City”. You won’t regret it.
