I'm such a fogey. I don't think I've heard, or heard of, half that list. :-)

Oh, you wouldn't have necessarily; that has nothing to do with being a fogey or not. =) Some of it (the Brad Paisley for example -- oh dear god, it hardly gets more depressing than that) I got from audiography, some of it's random stuff I had sitting around. I can put it on CD if you want, and I can send it along with the Witchblade stuff I meant to give you when you were here. =) I warn you though that starting with the Aimee Mann track it gets a little bit grim.

That would be cool. So it gets grim. I don't listen to Pink Floyd's The Wall from beginning to end anymore for fear of permanent damage, but individual tracks are still cool, so maybe I can handle that?

So I'm not the only one feeling I didn't do everything I wanted while I was in town. ;-)

Oh sure. I'm not sure that some of the really depressing stuff isn't entirely context-related, maybe it wouldn't be *as* grim for someone else. At any rate, eventually you'll get to "Take Your Drunken Ass Home", which lightens things up considerably after a mopey interlude. ;)

The annoying thing is that I had all that stuff stacked up so I could bring it with me Thursday night, and I walked out the door without it. D'oh!

single malts?

[geekchick]

Nah, I'm not actually drinking tonight. Sometimes I know when to quit, or more importantly when not to start. =)

Holy tuneful downers, Batman. Good stuff, though.
