AN REM HOLIDAY WEEKEND!

Posted by Infonistacrat on Friday, July 3rd, 2009

I’m sitting here in the Detroit airport, waiting on my wifes plane to get in from Cali, and decided that instead of working, it would be better to listen to some music, write up a post, and have a little fun. I can only take work so long, and besides, everyone else in my [...]

SHUFFLING THE iPOD, DAY 3

Posted by Infonistacrat on Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

Last day in a hotel room for a few days…tomorrow, I am heading home. Sometimes, even with the roughest of jobs, you get a week where the stars align, the universe opens up, and everything goes well. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it’s a beautiful thing. And make no [...]

Well, I had the new theme up for a bit, but there were a few tweaks I just could not get worked out. Mainly, I simply could not get it to work with Wordpress Stats. There were a few other things that kind of bugged the hell out of me, that I could [...]

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS…THATS A WRAP!

Posted by Infonistacrat on Thursday, July 10th, 2008

Today is the last day of my posting some songs I really really love to listen to…songs that easily don’t really fit into a theme. Today’s post is a pretty solid example of just varied and sometimes bizarre my taste in music can be. I like the old stuff, like White Rabbit, and some 70’s rockers, like Heart (NOT Heart from the mid-80’s…honestly, that crap REALLY sucked bad.). I don’t often post a lot of it, but for awhile, I really got into 70’s glam rock. T. Rex and Mott The Hoople have some seriously cool tunes here on this list. Of course, I always will have much love and respect for the great music scene of Northeast Ohio, the place I grew up and was exposed to great music of all types.

Maybe the craziest, weirdest, most bizarre band is Dresden Dolls. I was aware of them for a few years, but never paid them much attention…until I happened to catch a video of them on YouTube. I was instantly hooked. Any band based on 1930’s Weimar Republic German Cabaret has to be given a chance. Amazing, crazy, wild stuff, definitely off the beaten path. But I love it, God help me, I love it so. Enjoy!
