I went to the Virgin Megastore a couple of weeks ago, and everything was 40% off, but 40% off the $18 cover price still seemed like a lot, if I only really cared about a couple of songs -- which I can get off iTunes for a couple of bucks a pop. It seems like it's more about the single/album issue than anything. At least, to me it is. If I'm buying for singles, no way am I paying full album price when I don't need to.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hi, all. I haven't posted in here before, but I want to share... My niece's band, ThisMeansYou, won a contest - Metal Blade's "Search for the Next Great Metal Band" contest. She is awfully excited. The band won at Ozzfest a few years ago, and I'm not sure what that was about, but apparently there was a tv appearance. She also told me that their music is now available on iTunes and Pandora, which is even more exciting, to me.
So, if you're into metal, check out a few of their songs, and tell me what you think. I think they are really really good. Kim has wanted to be a rockstar since she was two. It would be amazing if they got a record deal!

It really was double-excllent, Sumi!
I recommend it. Particularly because flea's husband is a seriously accomplished pie-maker.

So really, there was no reason to delete.
Pie AND good record stores. (And of course, good friends.) What more could you ask for on a road trip?

Barbecue. Which we also had.
Plus: dachsund puppy, new kitten, sparklers, fireflies, old family photographs, swimming pools, baseball games and episodes of Avatar.

Sounds like a blast -tripwise. (Even though the occasion for the trip was sad.)

I am glad Wuxtry was worthwhile!
