Ah..the second I hit play and that beautiful reverb-fueled fuzzy guitar sound of J Mascis' came blaring out, all was right in the world. His guitar became my time machine...and I hitched a ride back to the early 90's and the age of own personal musical renaissance. No cubicles...no annoying bosses...no mindless work...just big dreams and rock n roll. That's where I need to get back to.

Never underestimate the transportive powers of music. Enjoy this new Dino Jr track...the record is brilliant.

Audio Nostalgia: "Drawerings"


Long live the shuffle mode. I don't think I am overstating it when I say that it's one of the greatest advancements in all of civilization. And today, it took me to 1993...(God, the year I graduated high school) and this wonderful, long forgotten(by me anyway) Dinosaur,Jr song.

Farewell sweet weekend...I hardly knew you

It was a nice, but fleeting weekend...gone before I realized it had even started. The highlight came late this afternoon, when my niece and I plugged in the Xbox for some Guitar Hero Word Tour action. Me on the plastic guitar, her on lead vocals. And while I am her uncle, and slightly biased, I have to say that she pulled off that J Mascis growl really well(especially for a 6yr old) on 'Feel The Pain'...I have never been prouder!

So I am putting the weekend to bed with that beautiful Dinosaur,Jr song and one of my favorite Belle And Sebastian songs...just because it's sort of dreamy and sounds to me like a weekend ending.
