So I usually listen to mp3s all day at work with my little (actualy BIG) headphones on. Today I made a playlist consisting of Fly Pan Am, Radiohead, Of Montreal, Sigur Ros, My Morning Jacket, Godspeed You! Black Emporer, and so on. I put the shuffle on. I made sure the settings in preferences were for fast shuffling (a more random approach to picking the songs). I’m in the 8th hour of listening… and this is the sixth damn time it has played one particular song. The name of the song…..<\/p>\n
HeySatan<\/p>\n
by Sigur Ros. Should I be worried?<\/p>\n
Speaking of Sigur Ros – guess who has tickets to see the first US performance by Tool in three (long) years? Me! I bought tickets to both days of the Coachella festival on Saturday. A whopping $200. However, I MAY be able to swing backstage passes to the whole show. So not only would I be able to meet Maynard and Danny…but Mogwai, Depeche Mode, Daft Punk, Sigur Ros, and 100 other bands.<\/p>\n
Then yesterday I realized the festival is the exact same dates as the California Dental Association meeting. The only meeting all year that all employees where I work are expected to attend.<\/p>\n
D’oh! <\/p>\n
The CDA is a 3 day event, so I’m going to try to see if I can just go Friday. This prospect looks good since (what a stroke of luck) the person I share my office with is the one who actually makes out the attendance schedule.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
