You know what's nice? Sitting at your desk and having the mail delivery guy hand you the CD you ordered.
In this case David J's On Glass so I could have "This Vicious Cabaret."

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
You mean the day that there's only 7 pages of listings (vs. 9 pages each for thurs, fri, and sat)?
Actually, he's scheduled for 8pm, so that might be doable. I don't see anything else of interest until 10pm when Minmae are playing (you might remember them from such CD compilations as "Jon B.'s best of 2003").
I do! There's some good local bands playing that night, too (Fivehead, Li'l Cap'n Travis), but I can see them any old time.
It'll be 4 days full of first world problems such as these.
I'd recommend seeing Burma. The Wrens are more likely to play again in Austin sometime in the near future. Burma, not so much.
Oh yeah, I agree. I'm there. Well, if I get there early enough.

Hec - Hayden's mix arrived safe and sound. thanks. I forgot it at home today, though. So I haven't heard it yet.
Jon and Hayden - can you feel my intense waves of jealousy at having to pick which great band you are going to see night after night at SXSW beaming straight at you?
Looking at the list of bands playing at SXSW makes me very jealous and also makes me realize how funny band names are when listed alphabetically.
I found out today that a potential crush object is in a really horrible band. Like, really horrible. I can't crush on a guy in a horrible band. Bummer.
Finally - all three Diet Pepsis I have purchased since the iTunes promo started have been winners. I hope I'm not screwing up the odds for everybody else.

Is that you? I thought my neck was burning for a reason.

I was wondering where that rash came from.

Just wait till the actual weekend! Oooh and then we you both come back and report how great it was...
I was wondering where that rash came from.
Damn! It wasn't supposed to leave any marks.
So what should I buy with my free Pespsi iTunes things? What is a great song on an album but the album isn't worth buying AND iTunes store has it type of song? (They have a lot of stuff you wouldn't think, by the way). Any ideas?

I looked on iTunes for "Kinky Boots" by Honor Blackman and Patrick Macnee but they didn't have it. So I got nothing.
Do you have "Bust A Move" on your iTunes? Maybe you should.

I'm so shocked. iTunes store doesn't have "Bust a Move" - because, you're right, I should have it.
I forgot to say that I have been earwormed (ew, hate that phrase, sorry) with "No One is to Blame" by Howard Jones ever since reading Gandalfe's post about seeing him.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
How about "Let It Whip" by the Dazz Band? That's another fantastically groovalicious bassline. I could listen to that on an endless loop.
