Take advantage

*Updated 2/23/06 Around 9:00 taking advantage of the internet and a little free time at work.

Well I will take advantage of the quality Internet connection (at home ours has been wacky to say the least), and my total lack of motivation to study, and do a music update and then I think I will blog on the poverty thing this weekend. We will see though.

So Music: I have been listening to this strange mix of punk, ska, and alternative rock. Lots of Switchfoot, Black Eyed Sceva, Model Engine, The Bruce Lee Band, Less Than Jake, Skank'in Pickle, and Roper. I have also been totally addicted to Mike Park’s new Cd "North Hangook Falling" which is a reference to North Korea. I don't know it's not like this amazing Cd in the sense that it is just him and an acoustic guitar for the most part and it's not like he has an amazing voice but it is just a great Cd. I really like it. I have also changed my links around. One of them is to Mike's record company Asian Man Records. He runs it how all record companies should be run, out of his garage with help from his dad. Awesome!!!

*The other band that I am just starting to realize is awesome is The Bruce Lee Band. It is another Mike Park thing but they have this sweet 6 song EP that is available through iTunes and Asian Man Records, it is named "Beautiful World". It is cheap and is a great little ska EP which is really catching and cool. So cool, so wicked awesome... Check it out or I will poke your eyes out with a stick...
Anyway see you all around.
