Correction to my earlier post on the Beach Boys...

Should have said "their later stuff (relatively speaking) is great!"

A little SRV at the moment.

John Butler Trio - Grand National
My current favorite. I love all the varieties of music types he mixes together!

Last night i listened to a few tunes from a great up-and-coming canadian country-rock band called Great Lake Swimmers. Also spent some time with the new Hot Hot Heat CD and new Caribou CD. Both are excellent.

(On a side note, i also watched $160 go down the drain as McNabb couldn't convert on 4th & 6 last night in the monday nighter)

Last evening I listened to the John Butler Trio's 'Sunrise Over Sea' ... I'll have to grab a copy of the 'Grand National' disc. I really like this guys music.

Tonight i have been listening to a number of different tunes, unfortunately just on the computer speakers. Mix includes Panda Bear (of Animal Collective i believe), current Polaris Music Prize finalist, Julie Doiron, Frog Eyes (these guys sound kind of Wolf Parade-ish) and the standout of the evening - Fionn Regan. Incredibly beautiful, but somewhat dark. Hard to beat a singer with nothing but an acoustic guitar! Also bought Eddie Vedder's new CD but haven't spun it yet. Looking forward to that.

I was listening to my FiOS backup battery beep loudly every 10 minutes this evening until I silenced it just now after not being able to take it any more. I would have silenced it sooner, but the damn thing is attached to the wall behind my computer armoire which is a pain in the butt to move. Apparently, the batteries only last 21 months, since the "replace battery" light is lit.

Kinda like Larry David and his smoke alarm!

Listening to Porcupine Tree's new EP "Nil Recurring". good stuff
