Everyone have a good weekends? If your big Halloween party was Friday or Saturday night, I hope you took my costume advice. Otherwise, you’ve got until Wednesday to figure out how to dress as the dirty sex act known as “space docking.” As for me, I was rather inebriated last evening. Drunkest I’ve been in a very long time. I have…I have weird flashes of memories, but not much else. I awoke with on the couch with a weird bruise on the right side of my torso.
Anyone who commented on Thursday’s post will receive their personalized top ten lists this week. If you haven’t done so yet, check out the compiled “Top Tens” entry posted three days ago, and choose a favorite. It doesn’t matter if I’ve known you for ten years or you’re here for the first time, I’ll reward you with your own “Top Ten Things I Like About You” and “Top Ten Things I Hate About You.”
Now here’s the music.
RULES for uninitiated noobs: With 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. This week is the 90th Mix Tape I’ve made! Fittingly, it pays homage to some of my favorite albums from the ’90s (and there’s one Dandy Warhols track, which isn’t that good, but I was working in a weird timeframe and somehow it got included). I tried to use artists I haven’t used in a while, hopefully it doesn’t totally suck. These songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
