30 Day Music Challenge Day 11 – A Song From Your Favorite Band


I guess Garbage would take the top spot in my list of favorite bands.  In addition to every studio album, I also have a bootleg from each tour.  I’ve seen them live 3 times, most recently in May of 2005 at the Metro.  I watched season 2 of The Sarah Connor Chronicles simply because Shirley Manson was a recurring guest star.  Do I need anymore justification?

By the way, the band has gotten back together and are currently in the studio recording new tracks.

Goodbye, iPhone 3G – Music Edition

As I wait for tomorrow’s delivery of my new iPhone 4S, it is time to say goodbye to the 3G that has been my trusty companion for nearly the past 3 1/2 years.  We’ve traveled the world together (well, at least Canada and the UK) and have listened to a lot of music.  Here is every song (all 1597 of them) I’ve listened to on the phone, with some (ok, very little) bonus commentary!

Don’t Stop Believin’ Journey Journey’s Greatest Hits 69
2008 White Sox Central Division Champs Montage Chris Tannehill WSCR 670 The Score 65

No surprise that the top 10 are all part of (or were part of) my White Sox victory playlist.  This gets played on the way home from every White Sox winner, plus the occassional ride to a game.  Continue reading →
