They sent a whole box of stickers, demos and pins to our school TV studio two years ago. For months I wore the pin on my bag and was always asked, "Who's Maroon 5?". But after a while I started getting, "I LOVE them!". I always found it funny for some reason. (But I find a lot of things funny that really aren't.

) Anyway, that was my story.

The most recent thing I've bought was Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights by HIM ...and a few AFI vinyls that I already had CD versions of.

Wait, I lied.

I forgot about Tegan and Sara's album So Jealous that I bought. A few of my favorite songs by them are on their other albums, but still glad I got it. As is most of their music; it's mellow, yet has a good beat and meaningful lyrics.

Just came back from the record store. Bought:

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - B-Sides and Rarities
Yay! It's finally out! 3 cds of coolness with 20 years of tracks. There are even 2 or 3 songs I didn't already have.

David Bowie - David Live
Another yay! When Ryko reissued this one in the '90s, they added two songs to the original vinyl, but they left off the incredible live b-side version of 'Panic In Detroit'. Now it's here, along with 'Space Oddity'. I am so happy.

The Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette (25th Anniversary Edition)
Is my age showing? Another reissue to make my vinyl go bye-bye. The original 11-track album plus NINE bonus tracks and an mpg of the original 'Plan 9, Channel 7' video. Rock.

Smoosh - She Like Electric
Two sisters. Ages 10 and 12. Heather discovered this on KCRW (where else?). Surprisingly hip.

I just can't rave enough about El Bando En Fuego -- Lee Presson and the Nails. Yummy! Latin-influenced neo-swing. Plus they cover "Pink Elephants on Parade." And "Mexican Radio."

Recently got Boxcar Racer, Maroon 5 and Bowling for Soup.

Solomon Burke - "Don't Give Up On Me", and his newest release "Make Do With What You Got"

Bruno Nicolai's score for the Jess Franco film "El Conte Dracula"

Gotta get those Bowie and Damned releases, Mousepod! Thanks for the tip.
