Have Hello Kitty Boom Box, Will Bop
Taken in the garage this weekend. TWCC is great painting music.
Listening to:
On the way in to work today, This Time Around by Hanson. A couple of summers ago this was one of my favorite pop records. Now whenever I play it, it takes me back to June and July 2000, Maria's visit, and Laura's. That was a great summer.
Some of my favorite songs from this album:
If Only
Can't Stop
Runaway Run
Sure About It
You Never Know
Pure pop. Love those boys.

What's the deal with this pop life, and when is it gonna fade out?
This is an awesome mix. I had forgotten how much I loved it. I never, ever play it anymore, but yesterday it seemed somehow appropriate.
I can't believe how good it is.

Music...
Listening to lots of different stuff because I am working on a mix for my visit to Detroit. I'm still not sure what will make the final cut.
There's something very Zen about choosing the songs for a mix. There are certain songs that seem to need to go together, somehow, and I often don't know what they are until they just seem to happen into the right order. I'm often surprised at how things turn out.
Not that I'm saying all my mixes are transcendent, not by any stretch of the imagination. I have made quite a few clinkers in my time. But sometimes you just get it so right. I love that feeling.
Back to the mixin'...

In Training
At the end of this month, I'm going to the TV taping of the Teen Choice Music Mania 2002 concert. It will feature performances by the following artists:
Ja Rule
Mary J. Blige
Ludacris
Alanis Morissette
Ashanti
Tweet
Craig David
Nelly
The Calling
Vanessa Carlton
Michelle Branch
Um, help? With the exception of Alanis Morissette, I really know none of these artists' music. (Okay, I do know the Nelly version of Girlfriend, of course.)
Any suggestions of songs to listen to by these artists? If so, please write me or comment, below.
