Musical Thoughts

August 21, 2002

Here are a few points I thought I would share:

1. The band Matthew is amazing. I bought the CD a week ago and have listened to it upwards of 20 times. Go listen to the mp3 on their site and then buy the album, even if you don't like the song. They're from Chicago.

2. I don't like when bands include their own albums in Top 10 lists. It's obvious they like their own album because it is their album. Why do they do this? I don't know. Rhetorical question = answered.

3. I am interviewing Mum. I will now have interviewed two cool bands and two nerdy bands.

4. All of this RIAA business is getting out of hand, and people are doing something about it. A web host is actively denying any web user with an IP address coming from the RIAA. The RIAA has announced it will start entering users' computers without their consent about a month ago and the webhost thinks this put its clients at risk. I love this. We need to stand up and tell the RIAA that they are not only in the wrong, but they are the wrong. Way to go Information Wave.
