I never knew I needed an iPod till I had one. Now I'm not sure how I lived without one.
What I'm listening to now:
Big Machine - Goo Goo Dolls
That Much Further West - Lucero
Mekong - The Refreshments
Einstein on the Beach - Counting Crows
Lost Again - Matthew Moon
Body - Bush
The Everlasting Gaze - Smashing Pumpkins
Fishbowl - Strawhorse
Suffer - Sevendust
Endlessly - Muse
A few months back I finally started a project of mine that's been 26 years in the making. So often when I hear a song it reminds me of a time in my life, a moment, an event, a place, a friend or maybe someone who was close to me. Thanks to my iPod I finally started cataloging my entire music collection by the the "chapters" of my life - A Soundtrack of The Hubb, if you will.

Well that was long winded. But like I wrote...seeing the last set was like watching a total future burnout death experience within minutes. It was very heavy and sad.
I'm intrigued that you describe The Tenenbaums scene as "beautiful"-I found it horrific. What was beautiful?
Finally I have questions. Where is where you live in relation to say, Seattle or Olympia? What's it like? I'm thinking of planning a vacation in WA and don't know so much aside from rain, death, music obviously and just friends I have there. I always wanted to go there.
Finally x2, speaking of, you really like Pearl Jam? Sorry to sound funny. Eddie Vedder and I used to correspond with each other what seems like a lifetime ago, I keep making jokes about how I'm going to go crazy to get in touch with him again. I know that sounds funny.
Are you an Anderson fan?
So it doesn't rain as often as legend? I heard it's dark 80% of the year? Or am I fucking thinking about Sweden (I could be; I'd researched that place, too). I just actually emailed my closest friend in Olympia about a visit. Do you know anything about the place Frances Farmer was institutionalized? I only know it's Puget Sound but can't remember anything else. I want to see that place, I know that sounds hysterical on the surface. So I actually have a lot of fascination with your state...congrats for moving a place you want to be. I am having the wanderlust myself now.
I never saw Pearl Jam either but I was mainly concerned with him and then he became a God and we lost touch, so I never really thought about Pearl Jam. It's strange to have correspondence with someone who suddenly becomes as large as he did. I don't have any idea how we met. We were pen pals and he would call me sometimes. I was 15. It's extremely odd to recall. He called my mother's house to invite me to a show once and she thought he was nuts and hung up on him; so I lost that chance. Anyhow, I HEARD about this recent solo work but I never thought of a tour-do you know if he's coming to NY? Weird thoughts. I could talk about this more but I feel crazy...it feels crazy thinking about him because he became innaccessable to me and obviously, to get back in touch would seem like a wild odyssey.
I'm hella long winded, sorry! :o
