I don't know. I might have to work Saturday night, so I can't commit to anything. Are you going?
Oh, bummer. But, yes, FAQWife & I are going!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
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.

juliana, shoot me an email when you get a second. Or ask over in the tech thread. :)
Shrift, I'm really fond of the most recent Grizzly Bears album, "Yellow House," and you may also like the Great Lake Swimmers, who released " Ongiara" in 06. Rufus Wainwright has a new album that I've only listened to partially but really quite like. Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black" is one of my more favorite albums from the last couple of months, and you can't go wrong with her debut "Frank." Blonde Redhead released "23" last fall, which is very enjoyable.
Elliot Smith's estate released a new collection of previously unreleased material, " New Moon," but it may be that you have to like Elliot Smith to want to purchase that. I liked LCD Soundsystem's recent record "Sound of Silver" a lot. If you can handle pop, Maroon 5's new record is discotastic, but eminently listenable. "We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sailed" by Modest Mouse doesn't quite carry the grandiosity of their previous album, but is still excellent. Patrick Wolf has a new album, "The Magic Position," that I've enjoyed. Spoon has a new album, "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga," that I have really really enjoyed on my way to work. The Arcade Fire, "Neon Bible." The Ditty Bops, "Moon Over the Freeway." (Not new, per say, but damn fine.)
Um. Not that I want you to spend all your money or anything.

I second Grizzly Bear and Great Lake Swimmers.

Heh. Yeah, I can't get all of those if I want to eat next month, but thank you for the recommendations. I keep a list of music to buy when I can fit it into the budget or come into an iTunes gift card.
Already have the Arcade Fire, and like what I've heard of Grizzly Bear and Blonde Redhead's albums.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Well done, Mr. iPod.
Heh.
Love that song.
I left my iPod at home today. I do that sometimes.

I hate when that happens. It's like coming to work without pants.

Or, say, forgetting to charge it.

Oh, that's even worse. You think you're covered and then the battery goes out.

Mmm, that almost happened to me today. Luckily the co-worked next to me is as obsessed with her iPod as I am with mine, and if I don't have my USB cable for charging, she inevitably does.
