My new mission: to restore the faith of at least one person in the ability of new musicians to create interesting, provacative, and/or generally good music. This is not as easy as it may seem. For every band that has something relevant to offer, there are at least a thousand hacks out there. Most of them are not even really trying to say anything new or creative, and probably a hundred of them have released albums.
Nevertheless, I will attempt this great feat. However, as many of you know, I am notorious for long and sporadic disappearances from the public eye (a trait shared by some of my examples of the current saviours of music). In an attempt to force myself to write and to ensure your frequent checkbacks, I will therefore draw this process out over as many blogs as I possibly can. In fact, I think you should check back later this week for the first installment.

No new blog name? What about the advertising? If someone does a search, though, they would still come up with you.
So I'm not totally sure this is about me -- I could just be self-centered -- but if it is, you might want to take the next couple of weeks to shore up your skills (is that even a phrase) because any time before then is going to be marred by something or other happening to the house, er, condo. Like, right now there are two guys in there putting in some laminate flooring, the very thought of which makes me want to throw up (not because it's bad, just because it was a bold and last minute choice).
I'm ready though. I heard Muse in the car today. Interesting. Couldn't really understand what they were saying. Kids these days.
HAA!! I just got your blog title. Ahem. Very funny.
I'm excited! Educate me.
And MQ - I want to hear more of this "Muse"... I was brain-fried when you played them the first time... to much condo on my mind...
JQ
JQ - I will play them for you again, on good speakers, when you can sit and listen without anything else on your mind.
SPF - Um, where is the first update? What are you doing? Why aren't you writing and educating?
Wamez - I will ignore the Muse comment.
"Later this week" was two weeks ago.
So, what compels you?
Thursday. Read my emails.
MQ - I wish "nothing else on my mind" was even on the horizion of possibilities... sigh.
You guys have to come and see what all our collective hard work has done to this condo!
JQ
I am very excited. You will have to see our work on ours as well, but it won't be near done for at least two weeks. We shall see.
BLOG AGAIN!!! BLOG AGAIN!!!!
Sigh...
Okay, I know you are in Colorado, but you should blog when you get back.
I am starting to doubt your new mission. It seems less than predictable.
Yes, what of this mission? I am ready. Waiting.
Waiting...
IT HAS BEEN OVER A MONTH!!!! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!?!?!? SOME OF US ACTUALLY WANT TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT MUSIC?!?!?
So, what did you think of the new Beck? Still haven't heard the new Chemical Brothers, and I went back to Muse for my biweekly fix, so I haven't been on 94.9 to listen.
You know, I still haven't heard the new chemical brothers. What is it called again? What does it sound like? I did hear some new Garbage today...I think...it sounded like them, but I'm not sure.
Love you.
Hey mister, how are you? How are you holding up? Let us know if we can do anything for you guys.
So, I know that you don't care about blogging and such, which is fine, but can I change up the look? It would be easy, and people would think you had blogged, so you would be off the hook for a second...let me know. :)
You compell me. :)
Compel...sorry...compel.
I CAN'T RESIST!!! I'M SORRY!!!
