Everyone has to post one, right? Music-wise all I can remember really is that 2008 was the year I discovered Mr. Bungle and consequently lost my mind.
December was the month I decided to pick up the guitar again (a real actual electric Squier Strat, not the one I use for PS2 Rock Band) and listened to Nirvana on repeat to learn their songs. "About A Girl" and "Man Who Sold The World" are my challenges for 2009. Also, yes I know Bowie wrote the latter. Cracked up when I read a YouTube comment saying "I'm pretty sure Nirvana did it first".
Realized I don't mind 92.3 KRock cuz they play old shit now and I am old so it works out. But some of the new stuff does make me turn off the radio. Also, memo to 92.3KRock and assorted other media: STOP TRYING TO MAKE 'CHINESE DEMOCRACY' HAPPEN.
Also, all the new bands are all pussies. Every last one of them. Grow a pair of balls already. KRISTEENYOUNG could kick your ass with a flick of her piano-playing pinkie. BTW, looking forward to her new album in '09. Buying Morrissey's out of obligation, I'm sure it will be grandly mediocre. And I say this as a big fan.
I might post a list later. I plan on writing more in this blog in '09. There have to be more curmudgeons online to put the young hipsters down.
