I try (and usually fail) to keep up with p'fork. Just not enough hours in the day...

the shins - wincing. it's really really growing on me.

Aww, I loved the first Magic Numbers too. Can't wait to hear the new one!

Downloaded "9" today... I was not expecting another "O" by any means. In fact, I was just hoping to NOT be thoroughly disappointed. After one listen, I am pleasantly surprised by "9". It helped to not get my hopes up, but I think it's a solid album. Granted, I hadn't touched "O" in ages, and in listening to it now, immediately after my "9" maiden voyage, it's too obvious what the better album is... But. I think anyone would be hard pressed to follow up an album like "O" with something better. Near impossible, actually... I'm looking forward to more spins of "9". I Damien Rice. And

I love my vinyl too... I have an old stereo that I got when I was in high school that came with a turntable that still works. I want to eventually get a new turntable because it is the only thing I still use on the clunky old stereo (takes up a lot of space...) I just really like the sound of vinyl and the feel of the record in my hands. The artwork is grander (for lack of a better word). And, some record companies are starting to give you MP3's of the albums that you buy on vinyl, which I love, love, love! I just wish everyone would jump on board with that. Insound is where I buy most

why the hell did they do that?!? Our one computer at work (I work for my sister's small biz) doesn't have speakers... god bless my iPod.. NP: Shins - Wincing

Outkast - Life Is Like A Musical The Waifs - Gillian Built To Spill - Mess With Time You Am I - Berlin The Chair Sparklehorse - Chaos Of The Galaxy/Happy Man The Mountain Goats - Slow West Vultures KT Tunstall - Miniature Disasters Sleater-Kinney - Heart Factory Idlewild - Listen To What You've Got Ryan Adams - Damn, Sam (I Love A Woman That Rains)

Jenny Lewis 10/15/2006 9:30 Club..... The new songs are amazing. Can't wait to see what she does with them.

CYHSY 02/16/2006 Berlin, Germany I fucking love this band.....

This is fantastic... we all know that the alphabet has 26 letters (count 'em!) you can mix and match to make many nouns and verbs but if you say the wrong one to your mama it may upset her so in Bikini Bottom we have a word that's preferred... we just say "BARNACLES" it's a word it's OK to scream when you want to let off some steam and say what you really mean we just yell "BARNACLES" and go on our merry way "BARNACLES" is the way we say what they say we can't say

sah-weet! NP: haven't listened to this one for a while.

I'm a spongebob junkie... gonna have to check this one out!!!

That Smile song by Oscar Bluth...

I've listened to Wincing about 3-4 times now, and my reaction is definitely that I like it. At this point - less than Chutes, but I think more than Inverted. I really really like Girl Sailor...

Shins - Wincing the Night Away (I feel so behind the times... ) I'm really liking this album. I Girl Sailor...

Yeah, I remember the day well. I didn't leave the office, but there were certainly some tears shed at my desk...

Thanks Dude!
