Complainin' 'bout stuff

(copied from me on facebook)

"You know what really grinds my gears? Olympic reporting.

I know you remember me complaining about them last time and how all they wanted was a feelgood story about how much that Australian dude Dale Begg-Smith misses Canada. WELL GET READY FOR PART 2. This time he stated in a press conference before competition that he would refuse any media unless Australian, at least until after the event. Of course the media still felt insulted when he just walked by them. SO anyways, yesterday I watched pretty much all of the Men's Mogul/Freestyle event, even the qualification round cause I just love that event (it's the only one I can really remember from last time) The Canadians were fucking solid, which made it all the better. I also sat through the feel-good story about the brotherhood between 3 of them and the "Rick Hansen's Difference-makers" (or whatever it's called) about Bilodeau.

Well if you didn't hear by now Bilodeau won Canada's ever-precious, first gold on home soil (don't get me wrong the moment was just about tear-jerking, even for me) DBG got silver and an American got bronze. At the flower ceremony, Bilodeau was on top of the world (obviously), the American (who only qualified for the Olympics as a stand-in at an event) had a huge smile planted on his face, and DBG looked unemotional. You can only imagine what I thought while reading some idiots' comments today. Ohhhh even the American was happy just to have a bronze and enjoy the moment and all that crap. Mr.Silver Medalist was the defending Olympic champion and was expected to pull off another. Of course he wasn't happy with less than a gold. He was disappointed, probably wanted to cry. Whatever, he's a millionaire and/because he lives in Australia.

Not a solid post, I'd say, but I have major studying to do (even skipping class as I speak) I didn't exactly spend my weekend getting shit done..

PS. Bilodeau is on my cereal box beside one of those stupid go for gold slogans. Kick ass!"

February 9 2010

Not gonna do Pigeon Detectives.. just trust me you're gonna love how catchy and British they are. Thy may not be critically aclaimed, but I love them nonetheless.

In honour of summer music festivals starting to release line-ups (Bonnaroo yesterday) I picked an album I got right before last summer.. and then saw them live at a music festival :)

NoFX - Coaster [2009]
Creeping Out Sara
The Quitter
I am an Alcoholic

I listened to the Sunday Morning Resurection last weekend on Citi and it was super comforting.
Los Bravos - Black Is Black (Streetheart just released a cover that's pretty good)
Tommy James and the Shondells - Crimson and Clover

Pretty good. Not his best. 5:50 onward is ridiculous though, peaking at 7:15. I think.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0D_kmH5bnY

In other news, I got my hands on a copy of Remorsecapade (Woodhands) yesterday. However, it doesn't make up for the face that I missed Rural Alberta Advantage at home!

Now, you probably know the White Album isn't my favourite Beatles release and I've never really listened to Jay-Z all that much, but Danger Mouse has somewhat of a golden touch. I'm looking forward to the rest of Broken Bells! Ya, anyways, I find this album amazing.

January 5 2010

Today has been such a weird day. I am so tired and the weather is so nice that I can't think straight or wrap my mind around just about anything. It feels like spring (making my winter 2 weeks long) and my class schedule sort of resembles last winter's so.... all I want to do is watch Beatles movies and listen to Traveling Wilburys on repeat in LP, casette, CD and mp3 form, but I guess my Ipod will have to do.

Traveling Wilburys
George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan with Jim Keltner on drums and Jim Horn on sax.. and other people I don't remember..
I can't pick only 3 songs or even tell you to listen to just one album.. so here are the track-listings to their 2 albums.

Vol. 1 (1988)
Handle With Care
Dirty World
Rattled
Last Night
Not Alone Anymore
Congratulations
Heading for the Light
Margarita
Tweeter and the Monkey Man
End of the Line
Maxine (bonus on 2007 release)
Like a Ship (bonus on 2007 release)

Vol. 3 (1990)
She's My Baby
Inside out
If You Belonged to Me
The Devil's Been Busy
7 Deadly Sins
Poor House
Where Were You Last Night
Cool Dry Place
New Blue Moon
You Took My Breath Away
Wilbury Twist
Nobody's Child (bonus on 2007 release)
Runaway (bonus on 2007 release)


Bonus somethings?
Song-wise I'd say the bonus songs from the CDs. Maxime especially.
Or you could just listen to: The Beatles- "All My Loving" or "It's All Too Much" or Oasis- "To Be Where There's Life"

I'm not sure I have watched any new videos this week. Just old ones. Go for Beastie Boys.
