After depriving myself for MONTHS, I've had this need for new music lately. See, I've only bought 4 cds this year, 2 of which were purchased in the past month. Add to that the 5 other cds I've recieved this year (4 for my birthday and one rather randomly from Christiana in June) and it equals not a whole lot (otherwise known as 9). So, for that reason, I've been craving new music. And it's a good thing Christmas is coming!
I already know that I'm getting Toad the Wet Sprocket-Dulcinea and REM-Greatest Hits for Christmas. My list also includes Damien Rice-O, Patty Griffin-1000 Kisses, Andy Osenga-Photographs, Rob Seals-Revolution of One and Jennifer Knapp-Greatest Hits. I intend on purchasing Pete Yorn-Day I Forgot, Wilco-Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (yes, Kevin does have a decent amount of influence over me), Edwin McCain-Messenger and Eric Peters-Land of the Living (I thougth that maybe I should own my favorite cd of all time). And, when Mike gets back from Scotland, I intend on burning Guster-Lost and Gone Forever, Ben Folds-Rockin' the Suburbs, Wallflowers-Bringing Down the Horse, BNL-Stunt and Rock Spectacle, Weezer-Blue and Green albums, REM-Monster, and DMB-Under the Table and Dreaming, Live at Luther College and Live at Folsom Field.
Needless to say, I'm excited. Because, after all, what's life without good music?
