Because the Domesticat Is She Who Must Be Obeyed
Because Amy demands it, a music meme:
Amount of music on your computer?
A lot, but probably not as much as most people I know, as I haven’t really downloaded many tunes since the demise of Napster. I’m always snowed in with CDs, so I don’t have time to download anything. That would just lead to more CD purchases, and that’s just not what I need right now. I mean, have you seen this ridiculous thing?
Currently listening to?
Sonny Landreth - Grant Street (live)
Steve Vai - Real Illusions
Stereolab - Margarine Eclipse
The Perceptionists - Black Dialogue
The Mercury Program - Confines of Heat
