Me, Yani & the Dave Matthews Band

So last weekend my sister, Yani, and I went to see the Dave Matthews Band. The last time we saw them, back in 2000 I think, was pretty epic. We got slammed by a rain storm just before we walked out to the parking lot. Everyone waited under the overhang just watching the torrential down...

Song Perfection: The Cure’s Just Like Heaven

I have to give my cousin credit for turning me on to this band way back when my sister and I were still moldable. This song, unlike any other, makes me happy, makes me move, makes me want to be in a car, speeding down the highway with the windows down and the radio up. I...

Cousin - True...May 7, 2010 - 11:30 am

Adiene - Awesome song. This made me so nostalgic for the good ol' Mtv of my youth... you know, when they used to play music and not reality shows all the time. I will always think Robert Smith has a creepy look though.May 9, 2010 - 11:03 am

So this week was a whirlwind. Most weeks are for me lately. This weekend is going to be another whopper, but in a good way. So much work to do but what did I do instead? Shopped at Target and read a new book I was excited to find. Am I the only person in...

I like it when people sing with their...

Mixed CDs: A Retrospective

My ipod fm transmitter thing in my pimp ride is broken, which means I can’t listen to my music. I am music-less.

Yanne Frank...........too soon? - You made me a mix CD that has Culture Club, mixed with Candlebox & N*SYNC...February 10, 2010 - 9:05 pm

Adiene - That's so funny! It's really a shame that CDs are now almost obsolete, and with them is going the long enjoyed medium of the "mix tape" or CD. This post made me very nostalgic for my old mix CDs... And the fact that we don't make them anymore. It's like a snapshot of that moment in time. Joe always regales me of stories of this famous 80s mix CD that circulated the swimmers in highschool. Did you ever get a copy?February 22, 2010 - 5:18 pm
