Very rarely do I criticize artists on this blog, but this could be the first "negative" post.

Congratulations on Graduation, Brother

I'm disappointing myself with the lack of posts, but to be fair (erm... to myself) I was out of town for my brother's college graduation. So, this post will be dedicated to him and his eclectic musical tastes.

Entrance Songs

Ok, this is a question I used to ask people a lot back in the day - what is your "entrance" song (if you were a baseball closer, batter, wrestler, or what have you -- those are the only example coming to me right now). Now, I was recently asked by Props' wife about Bridal Party Entrance Song(s)to walk out during the reception, and I froze.

Ok, we're in the middle of May and it is 52 degrees out and raining. I'm cold, stuck in an office and need music to get me going through the day. So far I've listened to:

Steppin Lasers - Part II

For Part I, Click Here. Basically, I talked about B.o.B and I forgot to mention the notes I wrote in my cell phone of B.o.B "freestyle to band. Early Red Hot Chili Peppers with Better hip hop, harder. sigur ros mobb deep - esque twilight song. then acoustic guitar."

Steppin Lasers - Part I

Chicago's finest (sorry Kanye and Common) Lupe Fiasco is putting out his third (and last?) album titled "We are Lasers," and has decided to tour with up-and-comer B.o.B from Atlanta (coming out with the debut album "The Adventures of Bobby Ray") for what was billed to be a high-energy show with lot of crazy lights -- the Steppin Laser Tour. Actually, just learned how to embed video, so check out the Steppin Laser promo here:
