A few things…

  • The Vintage Trouble show was absolutely fantastic.  The guys were ON from the beginning and didn’t let up until an hour and a half later.  An excellent live band that is very tight with an extremely soulful singer.  The crowd was into them big time from “Strike A Match” through the encore.  Dug the show so much that I picked up their DVD (“72 Shows in 80 Days”) and my brother grabbed me a copy of the “Swing House Sessions” EP (Thanks Steve!)  Met the dudes in the band and got both signed.  They mentioned a new CD coming at the beginning of the year-  I hope they can capture their live energy!  If they are in your neck of the woods, do not miss it!
  • My awesome wife bought me some Bose noise cancelling headphones for my birthday and they are absolutely fantastic.  Great sound and the noise cancelling is an outstanding feature.  Will be great when I’m on a plane or out mowing the lawn (or when I want to disappear into what I am listening to).
  • The rumors are true…  Microsoft is no longer carrying the iPod Classic line.  I’ll need to track down a backup quickly and can hopefully track down a 160 GB version as I’ve got more music that can fit on the 120 GB that I have right now.  And I sure as hell DO NOT want to have one device that has my phone, iPod, apps, email, etc etc etc.  Who will step up to fill the void?  We shall see…
