my top several

So pitchfork made me start thinking about what my top cds would be for 2000-2004, so here is what i came up with....the problem is that i probably have more than this i just can't think right now...so i may be adding more later.

1. Iron and Wine....Endless numbered days, this made it about all radiohead...that means a lot
2. Radiohead....Hail to the Thief...this one was hard, because i really like amnesiac too, but i think i enjoy this one more
3. Sufjan Stevens....Seven Swans
4. Sigur Ros..... ( )
5. Badly Drawn Boy....Hour of the Bewilderbeast
6. Bright Eyes...Fevers and Mirrors
7. Lancaster Sound...Hapless ledger : ) oh...just kidding...this was my old band : )

as i get down the list i start thinking that maybe it wouldn't be this order...all i do know is that i would put the iron and wine cd first...

I went to do a studio recording for someone yesterday....They didn't have any music ready for us and they didn't really have an idea about what they wanted....it was really frustrating because i didn't know the song or the people that wrote the song or what they wanted...so we spent an hour trying to figure out what i was going to play and it ended up being a total of about 3 notes and then we spent an hour recording...man, i had forgotten how draining it is....I was extremely disappointed with the results...later i got the thinking that when i've gone into the studio for recordings before, i'm know exactly what is going on and i feel really good about what i'm doing and i've worked on it outside of the studio, that right there saves tons of recording time....when i was recording the hapless ledger, we laid down two tracks for each song (just doubling the part) and laid down about 10 songs in maybe 4 hours....maybe....lesson here is make sure the people that want you to record know what they want.. : ) Hey but i got paid...

Bad news for all unicorns fans....they have officially broken up... : ( I like the unicorns...their cd is not one that i can listen to all the time, but i like it....and it is really hard to put back in the cd case : )...sorry there is only one person that might understand that....i think their first mistake was touring with arcade fire : )

Now i'm trying to stay up to see bright eyes on the late late show....its so going to be worth it...: )
