First heard this song while working as a janitor in college - I wasn't in control of the radio that day. For some reason or another, country music clicked for me when I'd never before given it so much as a sideways glance. It's not my favorite genre, but George introduced me to some pretty cool guys...and gals.

Loading... My wife and I went to Rock the Garden to see Booker T. Actually, I went to see Booker T and she came along.* I had to beg her to stay for the last band. Hearing this seemed to help my case.

Be forewarned, my tastes - although they do encompass a wide assortment of genres - are fairly pedestrian when compared to the great variety displayed weekly by hitman and jobu (and others). The videos this week may not push many boundaries or broaden many horizons musically, but its music I like and I had a blast putting it all together. Enjoy. Or don't...
First up is Feeder, a run-of-the-mill British alternative/grunge band. I like most of their catalogue, but I love this song.

i'd heard of a zither, but hadn't seen one. while listening to the interview and music, i thought, "that might be something fun to learn how to play." after seeing this clip, i thought, "nnnnoooope."
