It's my mom's birthday. This is normally the kind of event that makes me really miss Minnesota, but she'll be here visiting us in three days.
My Morning Jacket – Circuital
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.

So a few of you figured out the first problem last week, but it seemed that most of you got stuck on the second. Solutions after the break.
December 12, 2011: Jerked Around, Sort Of
I got to work yesterday to find out my work schedule for the week had completely changed. I tried to be angry, but I had no plans and the changes were sort of to my liking, so I left the anger to other employees.

Feeder – Piece by Piece
Greetings Citizens. 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.

Enjoy your week off boys.

Right now it seems my two options in Washington are to live in a house with four people and two dogs - too cramped for my blood - or in a hotel room with one other person...who happens to be the most undeservedly vain person I've ever met in the business. Oy.
