Well, hello there.
Long time no see right?
First things first.
Manchester Orchestra was freakin awesome!!!
So I got my new Spin magazine.
Saw something awesome in there that I've always wanted to have but have never seen it ANYWHERE! PSH. TICKET ALBUMS!
Check out
http://www.ticketalbums.com
They have custom albums, concert ticket albums, sport ticket albums, and photo albums for concerts you went to. How wicked cool is that? They are relatively cheap also.
My very hip Spin magazine also featured some sweet reviews on some fresh cd's coming out. Some of my favorites included:
Hot Chip- Made in the Dark- if you go on myspace like today there's a free download for one of their songs
The Helio Sequence (very cool band)- Keep Your Eyes Ahead
Louis XIV-Slick Dogs and Ponies (sometimes kinda sleezy but they have a nice bluesy tune)
Kate Nash- Made of Bricks- straightforward Brit chick tells it like it is.
Ok now some of us still don't have jobs but we've got loads of interviews so hopefully we'll get jobs soon which means we're going to take down the Unemployment Fund. But a new one is coming up in light of the 2008 Muddy Buddy Race!!
Check out http://www.muddybuddy.com
So basically if you don't know much about the race it includes running, biking, obstacle courses, and huge mud pit at the end. Teams comprise of two people and you switch off between running and biking at each obstacle course. The race is about 6 miles.
We have two teams so far that want to compete. One of the teams however does not have a bike. And the other team does not have enough money to enter the race right now. Soooo. If anyone is willing and able to donate to the MuddyBuddy Race that would be so freakin awesome. We'll post stats, pics and updates about training, etc.
It's gonna get pretty dirty :)
