Willow ,'End of Days'
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.
I AM SO JEALOUS THAT CATHY HAS HEARD THE NEW WILCO!!
But I'm glad to hear you like it.
Off to music store to buy the new Iron and Wine...(with a gift certificate! - I am being a good unemployed musicholic. Last night I got all hooked up with emusic at home. And it took me 3 HOURS to download a single album but - it was free. It was free.)
Not that I would ever advocate illegal music downloading, but the new wilco can be downloaded from [link]
Our Endless Numbered Days may be the best mostly cloudly weekday spent not working but instead toodling about the house album ever made.
Forget the may be. It IS the best mostly cloudy weekday spent not working but instead toodling about the house album ever made.
And right now it comes with a 2nd disc w/demos and unreleased stuff on it to boot.
Thanks for the link cathy - sadly for me soulseek is decidedly unfriendly with the Mac. Ah well. I'll just have to scour the internet all day looking for another place to download it from wait til it comes out.
(tina, I hate to bug you about the mix trade, but do you have Jon's CD yet? I'm sure SXSW has slowed things down a bit upstream from me.)
No worries LJ - I don't have Jon's mix yet. I think that guy who is about to get married and just finished his book still has it. Not that I am pressuring him or anything.
pokes Hec
Seriously though - I'm not bugging you, Hec - Lyra Jane is!!
kidding kidding.
Actually, SXSW provided a convenient opportunity for me to pass on meara and Anne's mixes to Hayden.
Thanks, Tina. No need to poke Hec by proxy, I will poke him directly: Wedding shmedding, book shmook. We want mix CDs!
ION, I saw the Decemberists last night. They played this new 20-minute song cycle thing called "The Tain."
That band is much better than one would expect them to be. They could so easily be a novelty act or insufferably pretentious, and yet ... they aren't.
And "Red Right Ankle"? Solo, acoustic? Almost broke me.
Opening act was this glam-ish britrock thing called Clear Lake. Anyone heard of them? I thought they were good, but not SO good that I needed to buy their CD.
Hey Jon - when I was the music store just now I saw that Young People CD w/the song on your 2003 mix on it used. I know that song is a cover, but I like it and am wondering how good the whole album is? Worth $9?
And yes, soon I will have just about every album from that mix.

Ooh, foxy. (Though both of them pretty much could have just HANDED me the CDs directly. But that wouldn't do much for Hec or Tina way over yonder in those other time zones.)
Why am I so hyper today?

Woot! LJ has given me the strength to pester. Get to the post office Hecubus!!
