Sure is nice to see some more people in our cybercorner! I spent some time this week compiling a 3-hour mp3 CD for a young (under 30) co-worker whose musical tastes were somewhat revealed to me on his MySpace page, so I decided to see if I could turn him on to some similar stuff that I like. It was a hit. There wasn't a song he didn't like!
Anyway, all that's to say that I was listening to mostly edgy 90s rock like Adrian Belew, Mike Keneally's Beer For Dolphins, Kevin Gilbert, XTC, Oingo Boingo, The Rubinoos ... you get the picture.
Interestingly, after running into drummer Duke Boyne at The GroanUps gig in Hot Springs last week, I put quite a bit of the music of his former band, BE, on the CD. That's what I've been listening to in the car all week -- the Thistupidream and Avalanche CDs by BE.
I miss BE. They were great. Period. Mark Summerlin, their guitar player, is doing some solo stuff now, as evidenced on his MySpace page. Nice.
Have a nice week newbies! You, too, Ed (Vince says hi). Keep your ears open ...
P.S. AG, I like that Bob guy a bunch, plus he has a fantastic site layout.
