Filling the Dead Time
I've written about a few bands without posting audio -- including at least two whose music won't make you want to sit in the bathtub and weep miserably -- so I figured I'd catch up during the dead time between waking up and drinking beer. So here's Mando Diao's "Welcome Home, Luc Robitaille" (audio) and The High Dials' "These Days (Mean Nothing to Me)" (audio).
In the meantime, I'm sitting in the studios of NPR station KUT, listening to a lively roundtable discussion featuring KEXP's Kevin Cole, WFUV's Rita Houston, KUT's Jeff McCord, and WXPN's David Dye. The whole shebang, moderated by NPR's Bob Boilen, will run soon as a special episode of All Songs Considered, and I highly recommend it. In fact, not that I'm absurdly biased or anything, I highly recommend subscribing to the All Songs podcast; no matter how much you know about music, you'll still discover something new and amazing there.
Speaking of discovering something new and amazing, I'm gonna go drink! Aw, I'm kidding. I meant to say that, speaking of discovering something new and amazing, I'm gonna go see some bands, probably while drinking. Later!
