Seriously. How did I forget how much I loved Royal City? Alone at the Microphone is probably one of the only albums I was glad to have bought off of iTunes (well, that and their other one, and the Volcano! I'm Still Excited album).

If you haven't ever had the pleasure of hearing these indie-rock-cum-Neil-Young-vocals Canadian badasses yet...fire up your favorite method of acquiring music and get to it.

Sarah's not home yet, and Brent keeps txting me about how hard COD2 is, and I still feel like my head is going to pop. blah.

I just bought tickets to see Mates of State! June 11th! Granada! !!!!!

I'm in San Francisco again. And I'm tired.

Peace out.

I'm still feeling pretty run over, but this morning has started off quite well. I get to spend the day buried in Syslog/Rsyslog goodness (which I actually enjoy), and to top it off, my Google Mini just arrived (w0000t!). If that wasn't enough, "Velvet Alley" by Strung Out just came up on my iPod...it's looking good so far.

First off, the mildly awesome news: Drinking is good for you! And exercising drunks stand to benefit more than those sober ones!

Secondly, the super awesome news: Hot Water Music Is BACK TOGETHER!!! Chuck Ragan decided to stop being a folk hero and start rocking hard again, I guess. Whatever the case, it's still very awesome.

There are actually that many albums?! Might be worth a read, at least.
