Tulane has announced that it will not open this year (semester?).
Just to clear up this bit from the article Hec quoted -- Tulane will not open this semester, but University President Scott Cowen believes it will be open for the spring semester.
'Underneath'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

How is this? I've been meaning to go get it, but haven't had time yet.
Suddenly, 65/month is not enough.
I always use up my 65 in the first week and end up buying at least one Booster pack - still a ton cheaper than buying CDs or using iTunes.

Dunno yet. I downloaded them at 10pm, and it's five hours of music. I'll let you know once I get a good listen to it on the iPod.
I can say this: Erin McKeown does Laura Veirs' album better than Laura Veirs. Remember how I said they shared a producer (Tucker Martine) and that may explain why their new albums sound so much alike? McKeown is really starting to show some of her brilliance, even if only in flashes. She reminds me of the 24-year-old outfielder who's hitting .260 with some pop, and you keep thinking that maybe, just maybe, if he can keep improving in the offseason that he will be a superstar next year. What I'm trying to say is that McKeown could be poised for a breakout album next time out -- if she keeps improving.
And another entry on the Perfect Pop Song list just came up on the iPod: "Downtown Lights" by the Blue Nile.
I should make a list of Perfect Pop Songs.
The iPod just offered this one for the list: "Wake Up Boo!" by the Boo Radleys.
I should make a list of Perfect Pop Songs.
"Heavenly Pop Hit" by The Chills almost lives up to its title.
I haven't mentioned this yet, but I'm on the wife's iPod again today. Aw yeah.
Last handful of songs:
...followed immediately by the Theme from "The Greatest American Hero." Believe it or not.
It's just me.
I'm walking on air.
