i AM GOING TO DO ANOTHER TWO ARTISTS LISTS. mY CONTEST ENTRY IS UP, BUT i SCREWED UP THE TAGS

Have you seen Cadillac Records? Any views?

Happy New Year to you Sir. Some stuff going up on my blog which may be of interest.

I liked Peeping Tom overall, but its not something I listened to for too long. Mojo was the best song in my opinion. I think it should have been better considering all of the talent involved with it and it definitely wasnt anywhere near Mike Patton's best. But I enjoyed it and seeing them live is quite enjoyable indeed. General Patton Vs. X-Ecutioners is awesome. I love it. And Peeping Tom would perform one of the songs from it when they performed live. Dan the Automator and Patton have another project thats coming out called CRUDO which is kind of in the same vein as Peeping Tom i guess but everything Ive heard from that project makes me feel sad on the inside. It kind of seems like both men have spread themselves thin lately. Or they just werent trying.

Hope Xmas was good. Have you seen 'Cadillac records'? Chess Records is kind of my special subject and I am wondering what other people thought. Some portrayals were better than others. The guy who played Howlin' Wolf really captured the intensity and scariness of the man I think. The Muddy Waters portrayal not so great, especially the vocal performances.

Cheers and merry Christmas. By the way, I posted a Mixtape with a London theme on Sledg's blog. I will sendspace it soon and I'll give you the link if you are interested.

Ohhh. Juicy Pear is actually the one and only jelly belly I can't stand - the rest is great.

I haven't watched any of your recent theater flicks, I guess I should go out more.

I highly recommend the book!

You saw Nick and Norah twice? I saw it, and I'll definitely rent/buy it when it comes out, and I bought the soundtrack. Have you read the book?

After Hours by Rilo Kiley (that's a VU cover) and isn't there a cover on the Science of Sleep soundtrack?

Thanks for your interest in my mix. A lot of the songs are from bands whose new albums I'm really digging at the moment: Department of Eagles and Deerhunter, in particular. I'd try those if you haven't heard them, yet.

And the same to you. I'll have a quiet weekend, I'm resting up for next week's Mogwai concert. :-)

That's cool. I never really found the time to explore the record stores back when I lived in Denver. Had so much else on my mind then.

We don't celebrate Halloween (except merchants are trying to introduce it to sell more crap) though we have All Hallows Eve as a time to honor the dead. In the spring, there's a tradition for kids to dress as witches and go from door to door and ask for candy, much like trick or treating. So it's quite similar I suppose, though the background is different (it's a holiday when witches are scared off by large bonfires and fireworks, and also a celebration of spring). Pagan stuff. :)

I hear early ELO and sometimes remnants of early Wings sprinkled with a little Wilco. I love Army of Ancients. He has a great such a great wail.

Cool my agent will be happy that I booked work! I play an awesome barfly or checkout girl.

I adore PD still, but the mysteries are getting awfully complicated and I won't even go into that because you had a question about Charles Charles, father of Charlotte Charles. As far as I can tell, he still is the biological father and was the fiance of Vivian (Ellen Greene) and slept with Lily (Swoosie Kurtz) and got her pregnant with Chuck. Lily went to the nunnery, had Chuck (while she told Vivian that she was in France learning about cheese) and Charles took the baby, told Vivian he cheated on her with someone else and that woman died in childbirth. So the aunts are not her aunts by her father. Lily is Chuck's mother and Vivian is her maternal aunt not her paternal aunt.

I'm 97.42% sure about this explanation.

Now can you explain the last shot of Episode 2.02? The skylight? Was that just suppose to be pretty? Because I expected like 2.01 that we would catch another glimpse of Ned's father.

Have you seen the two episodes so far of season 2?

Thank you kindly!

thanks. :)

I've been great. I've moved to New Orleans and started law school, so I've been busy, as is to be expected. Glad to be back, though. I forgot how much I loved this place.

Did I miss something? When did Mix Contest 24 start? I thought the Potpouri was 23.
