Literal Music Videos, How I Love You
Like any warm blooded human being, I have a special place in my heart for great music from the 80’s. Big hair, power ballads, one hit wonders, it’s all great. Lately that wonderful music has been making a comeback online thanks to an influx of literal music videos. The first one I saw was a [...]
My Celebrity Playlist
I’m not an actual celebrity; I don’t even have a Wikipedia page. But after reading Alton Brown’s Celebrity Playlist I got to thinking that if I were some kind of celebrity and Apple did happen to come calling, what would I put on my list? I spent the last month (yes it’s been exactly one [...]
Modern Musicals
Because I haven’t been feeling 100% lately I’ve been watching a lot of movies. Since Friday I’ve actually watched three: Once, Juno and Across the Universe. While I was watching Across the Universe this afternoon, I was thinking that both Once and Across the Universe are modern musicals. They’re both entertaining movies with a majority [...]
Buffett Does Tallahassee
On Saturday night Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band pulled into the Tallahassee Leon County Civic Center. Needless to say, I was there. It was the first time Buffett played Tallahassee since 2002, when I was a freshmen.
The show was great, of course, and even though I was behind the stage the view was [...]
The Zune is a complete, humiliating failure.
Ok, so I know that as of late a vast majority of the stuff posted here has been pro Apple in some regard. Well, I’m trying to find other stuff to talk about, but this article just couldn’t be ignored. The Chicago Sun-Times has reviewed Microsoft’s “iPod killer,” the Zune digital media player, [...]

Zune Pricing Makes Me Laugh
So tomorrow Microsoft’s iPod killer, the Zune, comes out. While this MP3/video player might slow iPod sales slightly, and only until a new iPod comes out, Microsoft’s attempt at capturing any market share from the iTunes Store will fail miserably (which means so will the Zune). But please, please don’t take my word [...]
Fraud in the 80’s
A few days ago I was reading the Apple Hot News RSS feed and came across a cool article about Arno Salters, a music video director. What caught my attention is he directed the video for Mates of State’s Fraud in the 80’s song. I happen to like Mates of Sate and so [...]
What’s Been Going On
It’s been quite awhile since I last posted anything meaningful. I know the 24 reviews have been highly captivating and all, but a lot more has been happening in my life. Without boring everyone to tears — and by everyone I mean the two people who will actually read this — I’m going [...]
Last.fm
Last.fm is a pretty cool site that sprung out of the whole Web 2.0, social networking deal that started up a while back. Basically, after signing up for Last.fm, you install a plugin to the music player of your choice (mine, of course, is iTunes) and it records all the songs you listen too. [...]
Review of Angel of Retribution
This post was written by guest author, The One and Only Wayne.
So, the other day this guy comes up to me at work and says, “Wayne, you’re the coolest guy ever. In my ongoing attempt to be just as awesome as you are, I want to listen to the same kind of music you [...]
