ECHOES. THE BEST OF PINK FLOYD.

These 2 CDs are exactly what i needed. i'm in love. Melo, you have to get this...and anyone who has ever been interested at all in Pink Floyd should pick this one up. it is the perfect way to get into this amazing band. there is not a single track that i dislike. so...wonderful. i totally lose myself.


DEPECHE MODE. THE SINGLES. 86>98.

A refreshing change in speaker output. Tasteful techno with strong vocals and wonderful lyrics. Favorite tracks include "Walking In My Shoes" (which was recently covered by Finger Eleven), "In Your Room," and "Stripped." Definitely worth some quality listening time.


Along with these CDs, i picked up Aerosmith's "Just Push Play" for a little over 8 bucks, and TONS of free posters. all of my dawgs back home will be receiving at least one. The bands include Linkin Park, Deftones, Bjork, Coldplay, Gorillaz, P.O.D., Built to Spill, Bush, Staind, Tori Amos, and maybe a few others. Most are in surplus quantities, so if you'd like one, chances are you'll get it. Just lemme know.

pigs in blankets are fabulous.

some awesome recent pix of Absent will soon be up on the site (www.absent1.com), so be on the lookout.

Why can't i manage to talk to strangers? I always intend to...but it never happens. this will change, though. oh yes. i find it amazing that i could potentially be completely ignoring someone who could very possibly have the most profound impact on my life, if i'd only manage a mere "hello," or some sort of compliment to initiate conversation.

The Michael Jackson 30th Anniversary special was wonderful for me...and hopefully for anyone else that watched it. i thought it was done extremely well...and it was really something to see the original Jackson 5 up there, performing classics like "ABC" and "Dancing Machine." The modern artists' interpretations of Michael's old songs were entertaining, as well; i especially enjoyed Liza Mannelli (sp?) and Whitney Houston. Michael Jackson is just...i dunno. I'll always be a HUGE fan of his stage show and music. anyway...if anyone wanted to catch it and missed it, i have most of it on tape.

P.O.D. and Fenix TX tomorrow night! Crystal and I are gonna rock out to that shiznit. If anyone would like to come, tickets are like, 25 bux (including service charge), and if you meet me here in G-ville, we can go up to Jacksonville together. show starts at 8, i believe.

To everyone that i wanted to visit with this past weekend, but was unable to: I'm going to do my best to at least spend a few minutes with you over Thanksgiving break. Conflicting schedules suck the big one. Let me know which days you will be available, and when, por favor.

i'm off to eat some FISH sticks and Macaroni and Cheese. mmmmmm...
