The 2010 Grammys were aired on February 13, 2011, and I expected the normal status updates as the award show progressed. "What the hell is Gaga wearing?!" "Who is Mumford & Sons??" "Muse = gods." Stuff like that. As I scanned through my news feed, I came across a comment that I've seen occasionally throughout the years. The good, can't-do-without comment from the snotty Indie fan, declaring arrogantly, "I think the critics are trying to kill Arcade Fire by throwing the indie band into the limelight."

I've heard this comment before by other music fans. People who say, "I liked…

I haven't written a journal entry of substance in a while, and I'm not sure that this one is really breaking that trend. It does require more thought on my part, so there's a start! I'm currently excited because I'm making up a list of songs for a decades of music themed power hour! YAY!

What is a power hour, you ask? You don't drink all that much, do you, I ask back? No, in fact I don't, you got a problem with that, you ask? Whoa, calm the hell down, please, I ask? Ok, I'm done :P According to…

Holy crap, I forgot how BORING my on-campus job is! I am very thankful I have one but gouge my eyes out with pencils, could it get any duller?

Blah. So, just for my pure entertainment, I'm going to list all my favorite songs that I can think of off the top of my head. Weeeeeeeeeeee.

"Ride Captain Ride." –Blues Image Group
"Bang a Gong." –T. Rex
"Flathead" –Fratellis

"Manic Depression" –Jimi Hendrix Experience
"Hey, Hey, What Can I Do?" –Led Zeppelin
"What Up People?" –Maximum the Hormone
"Old Brown Shoe" –The Beatles
"Feeling Stronger Everyday"…

Mad Men is on in 25 minutes, and I'm dreadfully bored. Ugh -_- So…let's just free write until it is on, shall we? See what kind of thoughts drip out of my brain about music :)

So what to write about…the first thing that pops in my head is the Beatles naturally. However, Janis Joplin just popped on my random shuffle, so now I'm purely focused on her. Holy crap that woman's voice is just out of control! Seriously, who did she have to sell her soul to in order to obtain those killer vocals?

I was recently reading about…

I just love these things…:) Here we go!

Opening Credits: Cult of Personality–Living Colour

Guess I'm an outcast :P
