so many great album covers over the years, i honestly think there's no way in hell that anybody could say "this is the best of them all"... it's right up there with the "best band" of all time nonsense you'll see everynow and then.

i do love my Beatles, though.

speaking of bad music, i was surprised to see a post by my buddy jeff about the latest Lady Gaga song sounding like something from Ace of Base — to be honest, i was kind of shocked that he listened to Lady Gaga. *shudder*

man, i don't even know where to start on this list... g'damn.

in other music news, i read something earlier about Marilyn Manson doing a Lady Gaga cover, and think my eyeballs kind of bugged out of my skull for a moment... my god, seriously? ugh.

guess she's still alive and kicking... maybe after all the drugs and shit, she's more zombie than human and will never die. *blink*

p.s. speaking of zomibes, i watched Zombieland for like the fourth time over the weekend... movie cracks me up, mang.

my ears are still ringing from the show and i'm tired as hell today... but it was totally worth it — big thanks to my buddy chris for the tickets, what a great early birthday present. heh.

pretty cool that it's all guitar and from what little i've read, seems like this guy is all about free music... or at least making it freely available just to get his music out there, which is also cool in my book. *nods*

also surprising was finding out that jayden's friends at school found my site and have apparantly been big fans of it the last couple months or more... ummmm, shit... *glances around nervously*

please, for the love of all that's good in the world, just make it stop.

so what's your favorite christmas song? elvis and the chipmunks tend to get pretty heavy rotation in my house...

...and since it's all about weezer at the moment, here's that great snuggie informercial.

{{{ walks away humming the song once again }}}

p.s. i'm seriously thinking about getting some of these snuggies for my parents come christmas.
