This Side of Lost

Everytime I turn around there is more good music awaiting my thirsty ears. I was a little stagnant in my listening (and purchasing) habits for the past year or so, but I think I'm making up for it recently...

• Butterfly Boucher: That's "bow-cher." One of my somewhat random used CD purchases at Cheapo over winter break. I can't believe her Another White Dash isn't plastered all over AAA radio.
• Eddie from Ohio. Pretty sure I already covered this. Where can I get more?
• KT Tunstall: You may have heard her Black Horse and the Cherry Tree. That was enough for us, but it's not all, by a long shot.

And things that I'm thinking about and just finding now...

• The Ditty Bops. Also discussed previously.
• The Duhks. They seem too much like other bands I enjoy to ignore.
• The Mammals. I just found them, like, three minutes ago, but I'm already really intrigued. Covers of Nirvana and Morphine? Cheeky.

And yes, I noticed that all three of the above acts will be at Merlefest. Like I need more incentive.

Anyway, the wishlist is updated. In other news:

• I am on Day 2 of the four-day Jon Yaeger-fest I've embarked on. It just worked out that way, really.
• Wish Samantha and her epee girls luck as they head out to South Bend this weekend. Rar!
• More Strat-O-Matic on Saturday! We've got four nerds this time -- look out, it's a tournament! Where's my d20... and the Cheetos... *snort snort*
• I just preordered the Baseball Prospectus 2006. Can you tell I'm antsy?

Off to class -- more Nisonger jokes await! Happy weekend!
