2008…so far
So I know it’s July and I’m a little late but I figured I’d give the obligatory half-year list of my favorite music. Reading this, you should all get an idea of the diversity of my musical taste.
1. My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
2. The Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely
3. Coldplay - Viva La Vida
4. John Mayer - Where the Light Is
5. Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend
6. Gavin DeGraw - Gavin DeGraw
Honorable mentions: Elvis Costello, Mudcrutch, The Ting Tings, The Black Crowes, Albert Hammond Jr.
Best show: Bon Jovi at Central Park on the Great Lawn, Bon Jovi in Philly on March 2nd (Jon’s birthday!) in the front row - I’m a huge Bon Jovi fan, could ya tell?
Most anticipated: Ray Lamontagne, NKOTB, Joshua Radin, My Morning Jacket show on NYE at MSG!
Most disappointing (not bad cds, but just not captivating): Madonna, Weezer
Ok, so I guess it’s not that diverse - I like ROCK, pure and simple. I also like pop and some singer-songwriter kinda stuff, and party music, but I see my list is leaning very rock heavy. Oh well. I’m sure there’s more stuff I’ve been digging, but I can’t think of anything else off the top of my head. I love these cds but I think it’s kinda weak that I couldn’t complete the list of 10. Maybe I should listen to that Fleet Foxes disc everyone is raving about…or Adele…or Estelle…
Hugs!
