My ears are bleeding

24gig in my iTunes, and a pair of headphones at work.

Bob Dylan's beard?

Maybe not his beard, but another album is coming.
Bob Dylan's 44th album comes out in August. It's only taken 5 years since "Love and Theft," was released on Sept. 11, 2001.
For some reason I don't imagine this album sticking out as much as "Love and Theft" did. At least in my opinion. I left the news coverage of the day around noon just to go pick it up, and escape for a bit too. I was the only one in the store shopping. I bought the disc, and Ben Folds "Rockin' the Suburbs." Got back in my car and went home to watch more news. I don't think I opened the discs for a few days to get my first listen, but I liked what I heard.

Today is April's birthday, yesterday was our anniversary. Tuesday was mom and dad's 36th year together, and my sister gets remarried Saturday. Whew! That's a lot going on, with Father's Day to boot, I just might make it through the weekend.

With some good tunes, I will for sure...
Jawbreaker "24 Hour Revenge Therapy"
John Lennon "Working Class Hero"
Phish - April 5, 1998
The Rolling Stones "Exile on Main Street"

The 1998 'Island Run' was one of if not the pinacle of Phish performance. Two nights on Long Island, two nights in Rhode Island. That was the whole tour, and they tore it up every single night. Not a single minute of these shows are wasted to noodling dawdling onstage or flubbed lyrics. The 26 minute version of "You Enjoy Myself," consisting of the four lyrics 'boy, man, God, shit' early in the song, starts in one planet and heads to another with a few stops in between. Dang ... I may have to give it another listen on my way home tonight.
