your into the hard stuff,my fav for the year was the new dream theater
tireoghain:
Thank god you didn't include what is passing as a KMFDM album these days in either of those lists.

Can't say I really like much in your list though, but its refreshing to see shit thats actually being created by artists and not execs.

hollystar:
Very good masks babytongue

I'm totally out of the loop, music-wise these days. I did hear of a few of the 11-20 albums.

How are you doing otherwise? How many days until pitchers & catchers? Footbal and basketball suck.
kikibabe:
Yep, you're right - I've never heard of any of them except PJ Harvey. tongue

I do know many of the ones in the second list, though.

Jamie_Trecker and I will be at Kuma's on Thursday evening. I know trocc and his lady will be there, and I'm trying to talk Darqkloud into coming as well. It would be fun if you and Unaffected could come out, too!

We're not all going together, but we're bound to see each other.

This is always my favorite post of the year from you. Well, come to think of it .. it's pretty much the only post from u that anyone can count on u making every year, lol. But always filled with good shit wink

Now with velvet acid christ, a lot of their stuff was starting to sound reeeaally repetitive, and I stopped listening to them ... is this album sort of like a "come back" for them as far as ideas for improvement/re-inventing their sound?
ash:
p.s. Have u already done the "best movies of '09"? Or do u wait until after xmas for that because of all the movies that come out on xmas day?
ash:
Oh ... my ... dear ... lord. I didn't even know there WERE 69 concerts this year in chicago! lol, jk. But seriously, that's awesome that you had the opportunity to attend so many concerts, does this include seeing local bands? I try really hard to support local bands, especially our industrial scene, which seems to be going in the wrong direction. They are in dire need of support.

Oh! And btw .. when did u give the group back to oj? I was gone for abt a month so I guess I missed that part.
wsoxfan:
Hello, my friend. I'd like to wish you and yours a merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year.

Go Sox.
