Put another dime in the jukebox baby!

I have been inspired somewhat to start a new blog about music I love.

Some of it people might not be aware of.
Some of it will be old.
Some of it will be new.
Some will be considered cheesy.
Some of it may change your life.
Some of it may make you want to hunt me down with pitchfolks and torchs.

Somewhat inspired by my buddy Andrew P Streets excellent Songs You Should Rediscover Today Because They Are Awesome blog (which can be found over at http://www.andrew-p-street.com/), I was initially going to cross check that we don't double up on stuff but he's been at it for bloomin' ages and has 265 entries already, so I'm planning to just take my chances.

Also my other good pal Andrew McClelland has just started a facebook group called Let's Get Into, (http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_120688564679373) where he'll be looking at bands he likes (or suspects he should investigate more closely - first up ADORABLE).

So there seems to be something in the water.

Posts start quite soon.

  4. Hi Ian,
    Thanks for your reply!
    You are a bit of a hero in our circles :).
    POP! reunion sounds great! Love to get some details.
    Congratulations on becoming a Dad!
    I'd love to book you for a birthday party next year if you do private jobs.
    If you maybe add me on facebook, we can chat about it?
    Thanks!
