What Are You Doing?

Because this is what I'm doing

Suckaahhhhhs

Oh, and also, I forgot about this guy. But Rocky Votolato is a hidden gem. About a year ago, all I would listen to was this song and this song. Some guy in Guitar Center recommended him to me, go figure. More extensive review to come, probably. But not now, I gotsta get my boots on.

Heading North!

Going into the wild (aka Okemo Mountain) for the weekend.

I'm going to be doing something in between this

and this

I'll leave you with some good skiin' music before I go.

El Ten Eleven - some of their stuff gets a little weird, but their first album is perfect for skiing. Check out the first track: My Only Swerving. It's laid back, a little droning but keeps just busy enough; much like skiing a wide-open, groomed trail. Oh boy, I'm getting excited.

Of course Jack Johnson is fitting. Try to find a more relaxed guy on the planet. You can't. My favorite of his for the slopes: Staple It Together.

You can beat around the bush all you want, but there ain't a style of music better for the slopes than old hip-hop. Just picture yourself taking on a steep run listening to this. It doesn't get much better.

But if you're going to take on something like this, you might want some music that sounds a bit like this.

Bon Voyage! I'll be up in the woods till Sunday.
