What a Nice Break!

Sorry for the long absence, citizens, but I needed a break - and I got one! In the last few weeks, I've been to Atlanta, Chicago and Vegas. Lots o' flying, but also lots o' fun. So anyhoo, back to business.

Now I know I'm a little late to this game, but I reserve the right to be excited about the Alive @ 5 lineup. So you got your:

- June 23rd – Third Eye Blind. I sort of like How's It Going to Be, and I can't think of any song of theirs that makes me want to shove 16 cotton balls in my ears.

- June 30th – Lee DeWyze. Ok, so I had no idea who that was, which I'm sure is proof that I live under a rock, but the interweb tells me he's the guy who won the 9th season of American Idol. Good for him! I'm sure people other than me care a lot more than I do, and you should come show him some love.

- July 7th – MC Hammer. This. Is. Awesome. I'm praying for parachute pants. I realize that he's become slightly less legit, but I am dying to know what he's got left in those dancing shoes. Can it still not be touched? Guess we'll see!

- July 14th – Dennis DeYoung: The Music of Styx. Now I'm not big on Lady or Come Sail Away, but I'm totally down with Mr. Roboto.

- July 21st – Vertical Horizon. Everything You Want is pretty catchy. I remember the video for You're A God, but I'm not sure that Tiffani Amber Thiessen ever really achieved deity status.
