Time to start the work week...
- Liz Phair - Girls Girls Girls. 3 stars
- Yo La Tengo - Upside Down (live). 1 star (the default for live stuff. the studio version gets 4 stars)
- Replacements - Alex Chilton. 3.
- Dino Jr. - Pond Song. 3
- Mission of Burma - This is Not a Photograph. 2. OK, iPod, got anything from the 21st century ?
- Bauhaus - Double Dare. 3. Hmm...
- Hector - South. 2. (my band in '93) I think the iPod is openly mocking me, now.
- Big Star - Down The Street. 3. a.k.a. the theme to That 70's Show.
- REM - We Walk. 2.
- The Breeders - Glorious. 2
Well, that was truly odd. I purged a ton of the older stuff from my iPod over the weekend and replaced it with newer stuff and stuff that I haven't heard in a long time. Not one of those new songs came up. In fact, except for that Big Star song, the iPod stuck to a very narrow time span. And, including that Big Star song, it stuck to a very specific genre (ie. early 90's college rock). This would make a good "College Rock Radio From 1993" CD.
Sometimes, I doubt that Shuffle is actually random.
No song ratings this week Cleek?
BTW, totally unrelated. As a guitar player yourself, what do you make of this:

I think it’s pretty damn cool. I wish I could play like that. Sigh.
oh yeah, ratings. updated :)
and yeah. that video is great – i love that open string stuff he’s doing. and damn, i think my right hand would fall off from strumming like that – all in the wrist.
