Happy New Years!

Happy New Years Everyone!

How was the year 20008 for music?? We were lucky enough to see the beginning of a Britney comeback as well as a New Kids on The Block reunion, with rumors of the Spice Girls having one more go as well. Is this a sign of things to come, the old is en vogue once more, reliving the glorious 90's?

I myself was not blown away but much new music in 2008. I am a big fan of Senses Fail - Life is Not a Waiting Room. I must say the concert at Higher Ground in Burlington, VT was great as well. A good mix of songs off of all cd's. Buddy did seem to be in a bad mood though, saying he was "too old for this sh*t" and making fun of the hippies in VT, without the majority of the crowd getting the jokes. Bad crowd, good show! And sorry I have no pictures to add to the site :(

The other music that changed me in 2008 was I got into Say Anything. Just another band complaining about girls right? Well they do it in a catchy way inspired by neurotic lyrics, and I would love to go see them when I get the chance. In the mean time check out this girl singing Woe with an ukulele, pure awesome.



One other cd I did find quite fun was The Loved Ones - Build and Burn. Just some good punk rock, I recommend the song Louisiana.

For me not a ground breaking year for cds and did not get a chance to see much live music because of moving around the country, but its been a great year!

Look forward to many more site improvements in the next year and a plethera of new bands, pictures, ratings and .... more to come.

Have a great New Years!!
