Apparently I still need to learn to use my guitar correctly.

Does anyone else think the Beatles song, "We Can Work It Out" has very troubling lyrics? The singer says to see it his way: "While you see it your way, there's a chance we might fall apart before too long." There's no talk of compromise, only insistence that the listener "try to see it my way." I don't think that's a good way to resolve problems in a long-term relationship.

The Blanks were awesome last night! They're the a cappella group that sometimes does little bits on the TV show "Scrubs." They really did make their show into an entertaining comedy performance, and they sang weird songs extremely well. I think my favorites were the songs with talking toys. For instance, they had a pumpkin that said "Happy Halloween," and by timing it carefully, they got it to sing along with them. Very clever.

Plus, I got cheap tickets from Goldstar, which not only informed me of the opportunity but also gave "free" (plus a high handling fee) tickets. I don't usually endorse products or services, but after them finding me such a good concert, I'm pleased with what they do.

I just got tickets to go see The Blanks next month. They're an a cappella group that I know of because they performed on Scrubs. Oddly, they'll be playing in a comedy club, so I'm not exactly sure what to expect. I hope to be entertained, though, and I'm kind of excited because of the Scrubs link.

Pandora.com just played the song "History" by Funeral for a Friend, and I had a funny mis-hearing moment.

The song really goes, "I don't care about your sweet scent or the way...."

I heard, "I don't care about your sweet centaur...," which is frankly much more awesome.

I like Guster's CD, Keep It Together.  I particularly like the songs "Homecoming King" and "Ramona".

Now who you gonna wave to?
