Dear god in heaven

This hangover. Ouch. If anyone needs me, I'll be over here. Being incoherent.

Last night was iPod DJ night again. The difference, last week I was working 12-8, this week 8-4. Hanging out drinking until 1:30 has vastly different outcomes considering those two time frames.

Anyway, here's last night's list:

1) Too Cold In The Winter - Cry of Love. Best band you've never heard of. On this album they might as well have called themselves Free, because that's who they sound almost exactly like. But it seemed an appropriate way to start, as we're now into the excellently warm weather.

2) Every Page You Turn _ Boy. I first heard these guys last time I was up in Montreal. They were being played on MuchMusic (Canada's MTV). They're kind of garage-y, but with slick production, so they don't sound like crap like a lot of the new wave of garage bands.

3) Marry Me - Drive By Truckers. Truckers do the Stones. I love me some Truckers. Not in a literal, highway rest area sort of way.

4) Machine Gun Man - Pride & Glory. During this song my friend Krista said: "Your musical tastes are definitely you." I don't know what this means, exactly, but I think it was a compliment. I have to also remember that I told Rob (the guy running the night) that I would make him a copy of this disc.

5) Til I Get To You - Nikka Costa. Time to get funky. This is the best song to walk to. The beat is just the right tempo for your pace and you get that funky swagger that makes you look cool.

6) King Contrary Man - The Cult. I totally ripped this song off for a song I wrote in my last band. I didn't realize it when I was writing it, but when I heard this later I was like "Oh, yeah, that's pretty blatant."

7) Piece Of Your Action - Motley Crue. Gotta end it on a high note. Gotta rock.

As a side note, last night I came up with the best possible opening song for one of these nights. I told Rob that next time he would have to play my iPod first. The song? The Muppets theme song!

So....30 minutes to break. If I can make it that far, (and to some breakfast), I just might make it through the day.
