500 CDs!

Monday, June 18th, 2001

Yes, the inevatible has happened, the 500 cd barrier has been broken, the CD that holds the prestegious honor is the American Version of the Matthew Good Band’s Beautiful Midnight. (Yeah, its a double., I had the Canadian one, so what?)

Toronto was a blast this weekend, Depeche Mode was pretty cool, and chillin at home sunday was fun too. Jake’s birthday / Father’s day, so dad and Jake were getting stuff. Buying for dad is easy… 2-4 of Heineken and you’re done!

This weekend is shaping up for a co-op reunion, then Amandas graduation on sunday, followed by Econoline Crush / Oleander down on Chippewa for free! πŸ™‚

entertainment is a sham

Tuesday, June 5th, 2001

The kids whose billions pay for this machine are not only fully aware it’s a sham, they embrace the cynicism and still manage to enjoy the show.

I guess the music industry is the 3rd to go down this route, where the 2nd was politics, following the lead of the professional wrestling.

Seen on Slashdot [www.slashdot.org].


Christina damages our eardrums

Monday, June 4th, 2001

Christina Aguilera is suing a New York record label that plans to release an album of demos she recorded at the age of 14, before she and her navel became internationally ubiquitous. The singer claims that the release of the CD, Just Be Free, will cause “irreparable damage.” Which makes it different from all her other records exactly how?
