big music tuesday

Today is a pretty decent day for music releases, as there are four CDs that hit shelves today that I had to pick up:
big music tuesday
I will confidently say that no less than one of these albums will make my year end list; you can count on it. I can’t remember a Tuesday where four CDs came out that I had to pick up, so it’s definitely a day of music worth blogging about.

I also wanted to get Guitar Hero World Tour (the drums and everything!), but I had to leave empty handed. The douche at Best Buy just disappeared when I asked for his help, and came back to tell me that Guitar Hero didn’t come with drums (which made me angry, because all he had to do was pay attention to his surroundings, especially since they have it out for everyone to play, and the drum kit is clearly sitting three feet from where we had the conversation… but I digress). So, I will have to wait until later for that one; I am going to try and get it after work, because it looks ever so fun, and we played Rock Band the other night and had a blast with the drums, and the Guitar Hero ones have cymbals (and no crappy pedal)! Looks like I found something to do for the rest of the week, eh!

    Hey! Let me know when you pick the game up and we can play online with each other. Bought the game only release since I already had two guitars. Waiting for the drums to be released separately. Been playing nonstop since Sunday. Character creation is pretty cool. You’ll can even add tattoos to your avatar.

    Oh yeah, I forgot. If you are playing it on Wii – meant to add that to the above post.

    How did I not know that Sara was releasing a live CD? You’ve been holding out on me! Hopefully the mix on the CD will be better than the show last week (which I will post about tonight).

    How’s the Kaiser Chiefs CD?

    Dr. Sparky: more than two of them are awesome!!

    John: I didn’t know you were in the dark. The CD is fabulous. I’m sorry that show wasn’t that good; every show I have been to of hers has been amazing (except when she opened for James Blunt; the crowd was way too talkative).

    Seth: Pretty good. I would give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars… not as strong as their last CD, but very listenable nonetheless.

    Duane, I picked up Lady Gaga and I had to order the Saturdays. I have been waiting and waiting for the Saturdays! I am so excited. Did you get the new Sugababes? I love it. Especially “hanging on a star” and “sidechick.”

    Guess what I happened to find today on youtube? A new Take That single called “greatest day”. Looks like they have a new one out in December.

    Yay!

    I have been meaning to tell you, I think everybody in my office thinks I am really hip with music because I am always talking about bands they never heard of, and I think I am only hip by proxy because most of them are ones that YOU found and actually, YOU are the one who is hip, and I am just semi-hip.

    Oh, and I bought Aqualung, and I really love it. Nice and Mellow.

    Am I babbling?
