I'm a music obsessor, nerd galore, creative conjuror, techie geekzilla, lover of art, sparkles, eyeshadow & the randomness of life. This is my little haven of things that keep me entertained.

A friend of mine recently gave me a “Music Listography” book…I’m finally starting to fill it out.

First list to tackle…

List Your Top Twenty Favorite Bands

Oooo…that’s hard and subject to change.  The order (esp with the top 10) change day to day…but here it is today:

  1. The Beatles
  2. Oasis
  3. Weezer (despite their last few albums…I still love them. Ever since 1995 when I ordered the Blue album from that BMG Music CD service. Remember those?)
  4. Jeff Buckley
  5. Rufus Wainwright
  6. Camera Obscura
  7. Blur
  8. Kula Shaker
  9. Coldplay
  10. Radiohead
  11. Jens Lekman
  12. The Flaming Lips
  13. Ryan Adams
  14. The Velvet Underground
  15. The Clash
  16. Pulp
  17. Counting Crows
  18. Led Zeppelin
  19. Stone Roses
  20. The Black Angels

And…a sample of the #11 selection for today. Because I don’t think enough people listen to Jens. He is AWESOME.

Flaming Lips (by Shannies)
This is a pic that I took when I saw the Flaming Lips in Kansas City earlier this year. Fantastic show, amazing band.
I love that they show everyone that not all Oklahomans are redneck cowboy people-of-Walmart types. That & I think it’s crazy that I lived 5 blocks away from a rock star. Rock on hometown boys…rock on & represent!
