I'm not just a comment whore; I'm also a podcast whore.

I was mentioned on my favorite podcast, The 619 Bearcast. Yay!
I'm such a big fan, so to hear them say anything about me is mega-neato.

Click here for the sound clip.

Or what you should really do (unless you're, like, my sister) is check out the full podcast (episodes 71 and 57) at 619bearcast.com

Super mega thanks to my new friends Brian, jpinsd and Vito. And, of course, extra thanks to Dave!

Also:
- Dearest 50poundnote, You're in the sound clip too. Apparently I met Dave through you... :)

- I still miss the Buck and Bobaloo Show, though. Just wanted to put that out there. Hi, bobaloo.

- In the clip, JP said we've never met. But, the next day, Mark and I met him at a BBQ. He's a great guy.

Music Meme - Day 29 (Jesus-y Edition)

Day 29. A song from your childhood

Growing up, my brother, sister and I went to a tiny, little private school. I think I've already mentioned that, but what I haven't mentioned was that every year, we would put on a big, ultra-religious musical. Virtually, the entire school would be in it, but only a few people actually had lines. Most of us were in the chorus.

Looking back, they were so weird! For a few years, we did plays about a bible with arms and legs called Psalty.

He would show up in town, with some kind of wild car (in our plays, it was an ATV with cardboard all over it), and teach the kids about... morals or something. In the sequels, Psalty had a bride bible and children bibles, because everyone eventually gets married and has 2.5 children, right? I can't believe I remember this, but the children bibles were named Melody and Harmony.

Rehearsals were awful. The dress code at the school was slacks and polo shirts, and we would sit outside in the sun for hours. I passed out once from heat stroke. My childhood was frikkin' awesome.

I did enjoy the music sometimes, though.

This clip is relatively new, but it's along the lines of what were up to back then. If you can get through the entire clip, there is something wrong with you, but you must hear the guitar solo around the 2:30 mark. Lightning licks!

Music Meme - Day 30 (I'm-going-to-miss-the-Music-Meme Edition)

Day 30. Your favorite song at this time last year

I always thought the Black Eyed Peas were lame. And, you know, when you get right down to it. They are.

However, there is an album that came out last year called The E.N.D. I just could not get enough of it last summer!

It really is a fun, dance-y album. The thing about it is it's very consistent without being boring. I would put it in and listen all the way through, then start it up once it ended. I was that in to it. I really liked what Will I Am did with the vocals on most tracks. Most of the time, they were either pitch-shifted or chopped up or distorted. It made the otherwise boring songs fun.

Mark and I had the pleasure of going to Street Scene last year. It was awesome because no one went, so it was really uncrowded. I think the producers (one of them being Tim Mays, the owner of The Casbah) lost a lot of money on it.

Towards the end of the night, Black Eyed Peas came on. They were kind of boring, but I did enjoy ending my summer hearing my summer jams played live.
