Sooner or Later

Song in my head:
"Sooner or Later" by the Grass Roots

Starting off the week with some sad news. Very sad.

Last week, it was the La's. This week, add the dB's to the list of '80s bands getting back together. Rolling Stone has the story.

The tracklisting for Paul Westerberg's forthcoming "best-of" is available here. Thanks Chrome Waves!

Jon Brion is working with Kanye West? Read more here.

Weekend wrap-up:
Took things very easy due to the heavy rain on Saturday. Stayed in and listened to Neil Young's Decade and disc 1 of the 1981 10-CD box set Friday and Saturday night, respectively. I watched this classic movie Saturday morning and was really blown away by it. More proof that Hitchcock made human dramas dressed up as genre pictures, Notorious is way more of a love story than a spy thriller. Since I'm through with that DVD and the two other DVDs I checked out, I sent them back this morning. I hope to get End of the Century, Burn to Shine and another installment of Later with Jools Holland in the mail this week.

I have a new housemate moving in at the end of the month and I have many reasons to be excited as he's been a friend for many years. Couple that with a humongous  new record store opening in nearby Farmers Branch , shows to see, and a quick trip to Los Angeles for something very cool (for which I reveal at a later date) and I'm happy to say fall is sha...
