Basstrap's Wilco list and a similar thread on another board gave me this idea. Make ANY and EVERY kind of music related list that suits your fancy here. No rules, no rhyme, no reason, just fill this thing up with lists of a musical nature.


I'll start:


The top 10 CDs I'm the most into as of today (no specific order):

The Fiery Furnaces - 'Blueberry Boat'
Cursive - 'The Ugly Organ'
Dismemberment Plan - 'Emergency & I'
The Cure - 'The Cure'
DJ Tiesto - 'Just Be'
REM - 'New Adventures In Hi-Fi'
Sparta - 'Porcelain'
Royksopp - 'Melody A.M.'
Deep Forest - 'Music.Detected_'
Manic Street Preachers - 'Forever Delayed'

Top 5 concerts that I had tickets in my hand but because of stupidity I couldn't see.

1. Jeff Buckley...my stupidity it conflicted with another show and I figured I'd see him next time around so I sold my ticket.

2. Grant Lee Phillips...terrorist stupidity, it was after 9/11 and was canceled, didn't get to see him until almost 3 years later when I moved to entirely different state, he hasn't been back to TX since then.

3. Nirvana...the stupididty of suicide, someone else took there spot, I didn't care, so I sold my ticket.

4. Smashing Pumpkins...my friend's stupididty, I had tickets, she didn't, show was sold out, she counted on scalpers we couldn't find any, so I ended up scalping mine. (saw then a short time later, the show I saw has been reviewed as one of their worst shows ever...great:|

5. Lilith Fair...my bosses stupidity...OK yes I really wanted to go, I'll admit it. I had tickets, I was working some stupid retail job that summer, I asked for that day off so I could drive out of town where the show was, and my boss forgot I had asked the day off and said I couldn't have it now because he had already planned a vacation.
