I Posted More When I Didn't Have a Hard Drive...
...But I'm going to make an effort to correct that. I think one of the problems is that I feel like I have to get a post out in the same sitting as I start it. And if I want to include music (which I always do!), that can seem a little daunting. But I'm going to try to realize that it's not like that. It's like writing a paper for school (only more fun!): you have to write drafts. Take it slow (I never used this concept in school, either.)
OK, so, first order of business. Remember the brackets? The battle of the bands? Well, I'm going to Sally Forth on that. We have some Round 1b business to take care of. Thanks to a certain Ms. Wells, I am lacking a vote in the NOFX vs Strung Out match-up. So, the first person to vote for one of them in the comment section of this post, regardless of if you've already voted in this round, will be the deciding vote!
Now: Round 1c!!!! (exclamation points make things more exciting.....!!!!)
1. Red Hot Chili Peppers vs. Sublime
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Readymade from Stadium Arcadium
Sublime - Seed from Sublime
2. Outkast vs. Ben Folds Five
Outkast - Morris Brown from Idlewild
Ben Folds Five - Army from The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner
Now: Trent Reznor wants to give you 1.25 free albums!!
That's right. If you have ever had even a passing interest in Nine Inch Nails, here's your opportunity to pick up the new NIN LP "The Slip" and "Ghosts I", the first part of "Ghosts I-IV" which is a series of instrumentals composed in 10 weeks in late 2007. It's free! And worth checking out! Go here for The Slip and here for Ghosts I
Here's a song from each!
Nine Inch Nails - 1,000,000 from The Slip
Nine Inch Nails - 3 Ghosts I from Ghosts I
Ok. Despite what I said up there above, I'm going to go ahead and post this. I just get so excited with the links and the words and the public reading my stuff!! Plus, I only crossed like 2 things off my list of things to talk about, so maybe I'll come back in a couple days and cross some more off!
Have a great day!

Round 1b
Hi,
Just a really quick post to put up the next round in what's looking to be a year-long Battle of the Bands, if I don't get my act together.
1. Sufjan Stevens vs. MxPx
Sufjan Stevens - John Wayne Gacy, Jr. from Come On Feel the Illinoise!
MxPx - Kings of Hollywood from Before Everything and After
2. NOFX vs. Strung Out
NOFX - The Marxist Brothers from Wolves in Wolves' Clothing
Strung Out - Party in the Hills from Blackhawks Over Los Angeles
So where have I been? Well, work's been really busy and also...um...WE BOUGHT A HOUSE! It's about 5 minutes closer to my work, so it shouldn't be that bad of a move and it's basically our dream house. We really lucked out here, folks. I'll post pictures as soon as we can figure out how to get them out of K's camera.
