drove back from Mom's early Fri morning...got home about 3 am, my car got punched by a homeless man while i was stopped at a red light at the exit off the brooklyn bridge heading to 278 towards the verrazano.

1. i felt bad for him
2. then, i hoped he broke his hand.

just got finished watching It Might Get Loud featuring The Edge, Jack White, and Jimmy Page. all i can say is that listening to these 3 guys play guitar was sexy.... hot sexy.

i really need to get more blues on my iPod.
and some White Stripes.

i have some Raconteurs music though, but i really need some newbie Jack White stuff.

and maybe some John Lee Hooker.
~~~
anyhow. it's about 2:13am and i'm listening to Baba O'Riley, and thinking how hard it is to find some really really great music. way back in the day, you could buy an album and fall in love with ALL of the tracks. nowadays, you're downloading one song from here and there. there is a rarity in artists putting out albums where it is worth buying the entire album. it's tough to find a Ziggy Stardust or say Dark Side of the Moon... today, you don't get your money's worth...

here and there, i find gems. whole albums that i'm happy to own. some as suggestions by a fellow co-worker...so, i ask you, dear reader, what are you listening to?????????????
~~~

last vinyl bought:
the Who's Quardrophenia (classic)
last whole album downloaded from iTunes - Local Natives - Gorilla Manor
last single downloaded from iTunes - Morrissey - Everyday Is Like Sunday
currently listening to: Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love...
~~~
wow.

    Just got Dar William's new release, which was just a rehash of her old stuff. Good, and worth owning, but not great. I also got Mumford and Sons latest, but mostly because I had to own "Little Lion Man". I'm finding the rest of the CD uneven.

    Last *great* CD I got was Cold Play's Viva La Vida, although The Killer's Day and Age might come close. I've also recently really gotten into Devon Townsend's "Ki", although the the last songs on the CD are way better than the first.

    There just isn't that much new music out there I'm finding inspiring at the moment.
