It's that time again. Happens every so often, basically because I like to put off everything else I have to do and sit in front of my computer and make the perfect mix. I don't think it is ever perfect, but I sure as hell enjoy it. So here you go, what I am listening to, as of late. Let me know what you like, dislike, what I should be listening to instead, etc. But nonetheless, enjoy.
Oh and for all of those who like to hear about the wonders of my "Writing About Pop Music" class (ok maybe only you, Jerry), we've been discussing The Band and their influence on culture. We've had scintillating conversations on darkness and politics in music. Everyone in my class is scared of playing anything current, because they fear it may not be considered authentic. Psha. I think I'm bringing in Bright Eyes' "When The President Talks To God." I think that has some politics in it, or so I've heard. We got into the conversation on whether or not we believe music to have educated us. Has it changed our lives? Do we now go read famous writers because a member of our favorite band said he did? I doodled in my notebook for that conversation, seemed kind of silly to me. But I did write my paper on whether my band of choice was authentic or not. Haven't heard back from my professor yet, so we shall see.
Cheerio.
