I guess it’s just that I glimpsed something beautiful in a flashbulb moment once, and perhaps mistaking it for prophecy have been seeking its fulfillment ever since.

Three years ago, out of boredom and a job that had the perfect storm of unfettered web access and an unhealthy amount of down time, I started this blog. And it's been a lot of fun and I have met some incredible music loving people along the way.<br /><br />But now it seems that all of the fun of music blogging as sort of been sucked out of the process. My only goal with this thing was to share some songs I love with friends, both old and not yet made. About one out of every three songs I post now gets flagged and removed by one watchdog group or another. I think the game is really changing. Music blogging as a hobby is getting harder and harder to do. I have never put a single dime into my blog, nor have I made a single cent on it ...it's always just been a splendid distraction. But when the distractions start to lose their fun, then maybe it's time to try something new? I think so.<br /><br />So I am not officially closing the blog down...just not going to be posting here anymore for awhile. Taking a very long,open ended leave of absence from this little corner of cyberspace. I plan on setting up a Tumblr account for my Craigslist missed connections dedications. Those will NEVER NOT be fun! And the ease of use and simple layout of Tumblr would be perfect for that sort of insanity. Ill post the link to the new endeavor here whenever I get around to setting it up.<br /><br />Signing off with a couple of new tunes from some albums that aren't quite released yet...just to stick it to the MAN one last time!<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/15/2794616/05%20I%20Can%20Change.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* LCD Soundsystem - 'I Can Change' MP3</span></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/15/2794616/04%20Little%20Golden%20Age.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* Wolf Parade - 'Little Golden Age' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com40tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-31971010256511226852010-05-14T10:58:00.000-07:002010-05-14T11:01:44.242-07:00Art House Director<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img.amazon.ca/images/I/613eEZ98QQL._SL500_AA300_.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://img.amazon.ca/images/I/613eEZ98QQL._SL500_AA300_.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>It's 2PM on May 14th and I am going to go on record and say that this Broken Social Scene song will be my most played track in 2010.

You wanted to be spanked, verbally abused, humiliated, and otherwise dominated. I wanted to pay some bills. Sounded like a win/win situation. After a week of frequent communication we met at a motel, I spanked and verbally abused you, and at the end of it, per your desires, I locked you in a chastity device (I'd never have guessed that something so small could have been so hard to fit into its cage - very entertaining). Everything indicated a mutually beneficial semi-long-term arrangement. We parted company and said we'd chat more later.<br /><br />It's been over a week and I haven't heard from you since our meeting. Hey, it's no skin off *my* nose, but you're still, um, incapacitated. I hope you were lying about this being the only key...or that you have a very understanding friend who's a locksmith. Otherwise, you've found a rather creative way to make yourself a eunuch, as I don't plan on hanging onto this key forever.<br /><br />In any case, I'm kind of hoping you DON'T contact me again. This was an interesting story to start out with and now it's downright priceless. Unfortunately, I can't share this caliber of hilarity with most of my friends.<br /><br /><br />******<br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/1/22/2734912/10%20we%20could%20be%20friends.mp3"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">* Freelance Whales - 'We Could Be Friends' MP3</span></a><br /><!-- START CLTAGS -->Unknownnoreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-14139683853963149702010-05-05T09:24:00.000-07:002010-05-05T09:31:20.589-07:00The band, not the movie<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgep8UX0Lb4PL0LfsEQi8kHFh7B9nnSmakphZj90EvdBazu2LSTvsWn6Ri_WvDsWKsHrMPfVLvJdvfu1tUCgjavLRG8kM17b2q6aB7BrCw6NrD_DpzeXsxt7-zVR1OI6Pv5n2ErG0i2N-M/s1600/mccabe-and-mrs-miller_time-for-leaving.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgep8UX0Lb4PL0LfsEQi8kHFh7B9nnSmakphZj90EvdBazu2LSTvsWn6Ri_WvDsWKsHrMPfVLvJdvfu1tUCgjavLRG8kM17b2q6aB7BrCw6NrD_DpzeXsxt7-zVR1OI6Pv5n2ErG0i2N-M/s320/mccabe-and-mrs-miller_time-for-leaving.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5467824057763008706" border="0" /></a><br />Even if the music wasn't so lovely I think I would have a soft spot in my heart for McCabe And Mrs. Miller.

There you were, face to face with the possibility of being immortalized (or at least remembered for a few decades) by the occupants of the home that was being constructed before you, and this is what you choose? Perhaps you were put on the spot. The concrete was quickly drying and you had just finished reading two pages of Chuck Norris jokes. You know, the ones like,<br /><br />"A Handicapped parking sign does not signify that this spot is for handicapped people. It is actually in fact a warning, that the spot belongs to Chuck Norris and that you will be handicapped if you park there."<br /><br />Maybe you were actually a Walker Texas Ranger fan (although it is unlikely that a divorced woman between the ages 45 and 60 would write in wet concrete). Whatever the reason, I have to say I am disappointed. It would have been much better if you would have wrote something like “The guy that lives here kicks ass”, or “The guy that lives here doesn’t want to buy steaks out of the back of your truck.” Thats right meat truck guy that comes down my street, Im talking to you.<br /><br />******<br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/15/2794616/13%20Immortality.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* Pearl Jam - 'Immortality' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-84753541381699610492010-04-30T07:51:00.000-07:002010-04-30T08:00:07.684-07:00Love It To Life<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61np6uRmnyL.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 402px; height: 357px;" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61np6uRmnyL.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />And no mini posting spree this week would be complete from me without including a track from one of my favorites, Jesse Malin.

Totally unintentional. Not that it can be helped. I think with my taste in music it is impossible to go a week without posting about a band from either Portland,Austin, or Brooklyn.<br /><br />This time around, the band is indie pop/lo-fi electronica act Cars And Trains. To me, they sound like a slightly more fleshed out Casiotone For The Painfully Alone. Pretty minimalistic, featuring sharp, clever lyrics. Their new record is called 'The Roots, The Leaves.'<br /><br />Here is a sample of what's in store for you should you check it out...<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/15/2794616/06%20-%20the%20sun%20always%20sets.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* 'The Sun Always Sets' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-59662936957776410162010-04-30T07:15:00.001-07:002010-04-30T07:25:55.627-07:00What We Lose In The Fire We Gain In The Flood<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://image3.examiner.com/images/blog/EXID7091/images/the_mynabirds.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 401px; height: 266px;" src="http://image3.examiner.com/images/blog/EXID7091/images/the_mynabirds.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />The Mynabirds (basically singer/songwriter Laura Burhenn) are out of Portland and have released their debut on April 27 entitled 'What We Lose It The Fire We Gain In The Flood.' I think I would have to love this band EVEN if the music weren't so good just because of their name. It's a tip of the cap to the near mythical R & B super group of the 60's featuring Neil Young and Rick James among others.<br /><br />The record is fantastic, and is maybe my favorite debut disc so far this year. Just a beautiful sound that is hard to pin down...it's eclectic and incredible...well worth your time.<br /><br />Here is one of my favorite tunes, enjoy...<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/15/2794616/03%20numbers%20dont%20lie.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* 'Numbers Don't Lie' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-31382642517747079332010-04-28T13:06:00.000-07:002010-04-28T13:09:49.866-07:00Craigslist Musical Dedication<h2>my name is scott once</h2><h2> i was at dairy queen i saw<br /></h2><h2>u ba - m4w - 32 (ohio)</h2> <hr /> Date: 2010-04-23, 1:54AM EDT<br /> <div> <form id="reply" action="/reply/1705830197" method="GET"> <button type="submit" value="Reply To This Post">Reply To This Post</button> </form> </div> <hr /><br /> my name is scott once i was at dairy queen and you who i miss so dearly whipped up a killer sundae please come back baby today friday not sunday please crying sad - scott<!-- START CLTAGS --> <br /><br />******<br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/7/2786285/01%20The%20Dairy%20Queen.mp3"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">* Clem Snide 'The Dairy Queen' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-74146042048325316922010-04-27T05:57:00.000-07:002010-04-27T06:18:51.706-07:00Craigslist Musical Dedication<h2>At the Queer Sex Ed<br /></h2><h2>Conference - w4w - 23</h2> <hr /> Date: 2010-04-20, 5:20PM MDT<br /><div> <form id="reply" action="/reply/1702029794" method="GET"> <button type="submit" value="Reply To This Post">Reply To This Post</button> </form> </div> <hr /><br />You were sitting behind me at the Queer Sex Ed conference and chatted with me and my friend.

I will get around to attempting to summarize it in blog form eventually, but now there is just too much new music stacked up for me to listen to...it the best sort of overwhelming.<br /><br />And of course, I am having trouble even getting to anything else because I am so in love with this new Hold Steady record. In fact when I first got my hands on it, I repeated this track - the first one on the record - over and over. It blew me away. Of course, I am totally biased, but I think this album is easily one of their best efforts. Same great songs, with an evolving sound.<br /><br />I can't wait to hear the end of this track live...I can already imagine an entire barful of my new closest friends singing along with "...we like to play for you, we like to play for you, we like to play for you."<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/3/7/2786285/01%20-%20The%20Sweet%20Part%20of%20the%20City.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* 'The Sweet Part Of The City' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-31279357339760277402010-04-12T09:11:00.000-07:002010-04-12T09:30:51.685-07:00Craigslist Musical Dedication<h2>Your arm caught on fire!<br /></h2><h2>- m4m - 36<br /></h2><h2>(Easy St. Cafe, German Village)</h2> <hr /> Date: 2010-04-11, 11:28PM EDT<br /> <div> <form id="reply" action="/reply/1687781150" method="GET"> <button type="submit" value="Reply To This Post">Reply To This Post</button> </form> </div> <hr /><br /> Busy saturday night at Easy St. Cafe... your arm briefly caught on fire when you lit our saganaki!

I think you are a manager there.... I happened to be there during your team meeting....haha, why did you want to leave the room? You seem sweet, sensitive, innocent, a little shy, and just too perfect. I can't get your big, sweet, compassionate, soul-piercing eyes out of my mind! I have never done this before, but your glance has left me no choice. Unfortunately, I didn't get the job, but what dissappoints me most is that I won't have the opportunity to flirt with you at work. I would like to get to know you better if you are interested. I am a clean-cut, educated, down-to earth, hard-working, sensitive artist with muscle. I moved out here a month ago and it has been hard meeting cool people to hang out with, let alone someone to enjoy my life with. I am a knight always on the look out for my princess, if you and I were meant to be then I believe that you will somehow see this post. I think that you know who I am, and I hope our paths may cross again sometime perfect stranger. <!-- START CLTAGS --> <br /><br /><br />******<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/1/22/2734912/04%20It%20Takes%20Time%20to%20Build.mp3"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* Beastie Boys - 'It Takes Time To Build' MP3</span></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-33490357928199669522010-04-09T17:39:00.000-07:002010-04-09T17:45:04.230-07:00This Too Shall Pass Away<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://onethirtybpm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Xiu-Xiu-Dear-God-I-Hate-Myself.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 401px; height: 401px;" src="http://onethirtybpm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Xiu-Xiu-Dear-God-I-Hate-Myself.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Apologies for the lack of posts lately...been really busy, and I just haven't really had much come across my ears that I felt I HAD to share.<br /><br />Well, that all changed about five minutes ago when I heard this Xiu Xiu song.

When I got your message I honestly wasn't enthused you weren't my type but when you asked me to the movies I really wanted to go that weekend it's kind of ironic in a way. Your sense of humor was off a little but I liked it you made me smile and I thought you were amazing and I really don't know why it was something about you that I liked. Afer the movie we went back to my room and had a few drinks and I honestly thought we had fun but I guess I was wrong. I texted you the next day and got no respond until you realized you had forgot your charger and you needed it for work monday. You brought your friend with you which I didn't understand I guess it was for him to judge me but I don't know because I haven't heard from you since then which I think is kind of messed up something would have been better than nothing but I guess that's all it was to you...nothing. I doubt you see this or even care but I just wanted to say I thought you were great and have a nice life<br /><br />******<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">And there you have it.

Clearly, you want to have sex with me, and that's what this is all about. The few times we did have sex were alright I guess, but while you never could finish without making ridiculous high-pitched noises as if you were in pain, I wouldn't mind trying again. But this game you're playing (yelling at me to stop "following you" when we go to the same church, not looking me in the eyes in public, getting a restraining order on me, "confessing" to your parents that we had sex as if God had a problem with it, yelling at me about how I'm wrong about something in general - what I have yet to figure out) is really driving me bonkers. I would have sex with you again, I really would. However after I realized that while we were still together, you thought you stood a chance with this one slut (we'll call her Amy J) who happens to 1. lead a Bible study and 2. talk about sex and God inextricably more than any other vagina I've met, well, it's just become a little bit more complicated. You see my sweet love, she knows that you want to have sex with her. This is in fact why she is so coy with you! On again off again! "Hard to catch" and yet SUCH a good friend! All girls are like this. We KNOW. Penis trumps all. That is, until we get married, then we really have no idea that it was all about the sex. You left me for this other vagina, and I'm just going to say. That was wrong. That was cold, well-executed (I didn't even believe it for almost a year! But my dad set me straight, understanding himself very well), and did I say cold? When you broke up with me and I acted like that was alright, you went straight to Amy J and got sad. She wanted to help, so she IM'd me and said you needed space. I should have listened, I'm sorry for not giving you space then! Maybe then you would have ignored her fat slimy ass. She really does have butter thighs, you know. I/everyone was shocked when they figured out you were chasing a chubby instead of your Playboy-bunny ex-girlfriend.<br />Anyway.. seeing as how you don't even know I exist anymore in real life (I had to ask you if you got a lawyer to get your attention) well, I'm sorry the sex will never be that good again, but if you want to work it out... you have my number. Just don't expect sex til there's a ring on my finger and bells ringing, bitch.<br /><br />See you in court tomorrow.<br /><br /><3<br /><br /><br />****** <br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/h6ns478s3c"><span style="font-weight: bold;">* The New Pornographers - 'The Laws Have Changed' MP3</span></a><br /><!-- START CLTAGS -->Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852993986633187400.post-47036904703953796462010-04-05T07:11:00.000-07:002010-04-05T07:28:24.292-07:00So good at being so sad<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsfhR0rkXXZ5FhtYh7hZMO-bK1j6BUV1qDBpvKRpOjCRTzZ_acOQVPUABqf2rfRVE7GY-wWYEdPaesgdypQysWofQ6hM3moE97CeQZ25mMxv-rUtE8Fcxm3WtgePDnxO3TYxjCcUH-u1A/s1600/SC192digitalthm_7.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 401px; height: 401px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsfhR0rkXXZ5FhtYh7hZMO-bK1j6BUV1qDBpvKRpOjCRTzZ_acOQVPUABqf2rfRVE7GY-wWYEdPaesgdypQysWofQ6hM3moE97CeQZ25mMxv-rUtE8Fcxm3WtgePDnxO3TYxjCcUH-u1A/s320/SC192digitalthm_7.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5456657124615236770" border="0" /></a><br />Only seems right that I should share some new music from one of my very favorite singer/songwriters, Damien Jurado, on this, an overcast and gray Monday morning.
