Music Stuff
For my birthday, my brother got me a subscription to U2.com. It's very cool...I can watch entire U2 videos online and get to see all kinds of special features that you can't see as a regular visitor to their website. I even have a u2.com email address...although I don't use it. I can hardly keep up with one email account, for goodness sakes...but I think it's neat, nonetheless....So, anyway...part of the deal with being a member of the site is that I can get 25 % off merch. purchased from the site. I got myself an ultra cool u2 calendar with a great new photo each month to gaze at. : ) I also get special notice for when their tour info and tickets are available. I MUST get to this one. HTDAOB: (short for the title of their new album) is fabulous, in my opinion. Do you have a favorite U2 song? I really have a thing for "Love is Blindness" from Achtung Baby and "Exit" from The Joshua Tree. Their new album may add a couple of favorites to my list.
In other music news...I just found out that some friends of mine from the church I used to attend, In the Light Ministries (awesome church by the way) have a band called Moe Love. It was a funny turn of events because I happened to hear their music playing in our Promotion Directors Office and really liked their sound. I didn't even realize that it was people I knew. I also just found out that their music is getting played on Friday nights on WJTL. Woo Hoo.
I'd also like to make a plug for pastemusic.com. I just ordered a couple of cd's from them and the order went through super fast. Plus, I appreciate their website and the artists they carry. Good stuff. I just got the new Over the Rhine, Ron Sexsmith and a music sampler from them...and of course the music sampler is luring me in for some new artists I hadn't heard of before.
Anything tantalizing your ears lately?
