The Mountain Goats - Zopilote Machine

Went on Amazon to get myself some 'comfort' albums. I'd say it's the aural equivalent of crawling under your bed and eating a tub of ice cream while watching Oprah, but not quite so dramatic. Been meaning to get these singles for months. Decided I want them now: Pyamid Song EP Knives Out Pt.1 Kinves Out Pt. 2 High And Dry Pt. 1

Interviewed for a job today. That's GREAT for me - I'm running out of money and my other leads fell through. I should hear back from them in a day or two. Got some cool albums and singles used at the local shoppe. I've got quite the list I still need to get, but I've had to hold off until I get a cash flow back...

Gliding through the Calculus quiz and Physics midterm I had today, and a full weekend before me with no homework (unless I decide to do some early.... of course that won't happen.) Finding recordings of some of Jonny Greenwood's other works: 'Smear' and 'Piano For Children'. This is some sweeeeeeeeeet thinkin' music.

Ebay and Amazon are very, very last resorts for me. I don't like internet shopping... the wait, the shipping costs, annoying sellers who don't ship for a week or more. I want those albums but haven't wanted them enough so far to go online. I'll keep hunting in the local stores.

I've never found these... now I want 'em even more!

My tuition bill is $300 less than what I was expecting. I've got money to spare to cover it. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Even doing poorly on my Calc quiz today can't dampen my spirits.

Never been much of a fan. I have 5-6 of their albums because I keep finding them used for $4. I dunno about a favorite song, but I absolutely love the acoustic cut of Pop Song '89 off the rarities disc of In Time. I think that song sports some of their finest lyrics: 'Hello, I saw you - I know you - I knew you think I can remember your name' 'Hello, my friend, are you visible today?' Love it.

I should've asked you if you had any connection with them - I hear they hail from Boise.

Just got a great lead on a job that should carry me through the next semester or two until I can get that internship at my uncle's music gear factory.

There Will Be Blood - Jonny Greenwood Giant Steps - John Coltrane Live - Built To Spill I bought the BTS album because they're coming to town end of February and I wanted to know if they can throw it down on stage. It's got a 20 minute jam session cover of Cortez The Killer... and it sounds pretty good.

I've got that album, too. Though, I've always preferred Space Ghost: Coast To Coast over Cartoon Planet. Its humour appeals more to me. Space Ghost: 'Brain wave! How about you guys come up here and be my new house band?' Beck: 'Um...' SG: 'Come on... I got two turntables and my mommy's home!'

I hated them because it's all my siblings would listen to. Many of their songs still annoy me, mostly whatever the radio stations overplay. But they're OK now. I love The White Album.

I just watched 10 episodes of Space Ghost: Coast To Coast in a row. I laughed the whole way through, even though I've seen each of them countless times. They need to release more volumes on DVD. 3 is not enough.
