This morning I was all ready to come in here and cry about not being able to go and see The Darkness playing live tomorrow night (stupid lack of funds, stupid uni assignments, etc ) but I have awesome news! I won a competition on the radio, and now I'm in the runing to win tickets to the MTV Video Music Awards in Sydney, where The Darkness are playing! If I win, I also get to meet James Blunt (yes, hooray) and go to the after party! W00t!!!! *passes out from joy, yet again*

* thinks James Blunt should have his larynx removed or we should send a Terminator back in time to do it before that atrocious song was ever recorded *
Snowdog, man I can't listen to that album without getting sad. It was recorded in November 93, right around the time I saw the band in DC. You can hear the pain in Kobain's voice, like he was barely hanging on...
I'm not listening to anything at the moment, but will probably load up A Perfect Circle's "Thirteenth Step". I've had the opening track in my head all day...

I hear you Silm, which cements Nirvana as one of the premiere blues bands. His rendition of Leadbelly's Where Did You Sleep At Night is intense!

I actually went back to the beginning of Nirvana's main stream cross over on the 5th April... and listened to Nevermind, at top volume in the car with the windows down as I sped through the dry and dusty plains of western New South Wales. I reveled in the seeming innocence and hope that threaded through Cobain's voice amid the weariness and pain and disenfranchised rage back then, and marked the sad day he left us, 12 years ago.
Silm! I adore that CD. It's almost on permanent rotation in my stereo... that and Tool's Undertow.
Right now, though, I am listening to Ben Harper's Both Sides of the Gun CD.
On a similar note, I'm looking forward to Tool's new album, supposedly called 10,000 days.
Currently listening to Opeth - Blackwater Park from 2001 - which is a most excellent album, surpassed only by their Ghost Reveries (2005). It's progressive, has more than a few death-metal influences and is simply an album worth listening to.

Oh Bele... there are so MANY releases I am waiting on tenter hooks for... and it's not easy as release in this part of the world is for some reason way after everywhere else. I swear, people in Botswana get new music faster than we do...
But I shall have to be strong... and keep waiting... because.... I WANT MORE TOOL!

Your last smilie made me wonder: are you making fun of me, or were you commenting (with " ") on how hard it is in Australia to get your hands on new releases?
Sorry for the misunderstanding, anyway
edit: I just came to the conclusion you did not make fun of me, reading the post before your last one. Sorry, again. Call me Dr. Dense.

No harm, no foul Belegurth. Nothing to be sorry for.
Though, I can't for the life of me imagine how anyone could ever think that I, little innocent ole me, would ever make fun of anyone - ever!
It is pretty difficult to get our hands on new releases of the non commercial saccharine crap variety here - they seem to take their own sweet time getting to us. Of course, I'm not the most patient of women either.
Why, I once hopped a plane and flew half way around the world to see Return of the King at the same time as everybody else, and a whole 6 days before my compatriots back in Oz.
