Weekend Randomosity

~ BMG is pissing me off. So many of the artist on my want list have disappeared from there catalog. I wanted the last few Jewel CDs and they had them up until a month ago and now nothing. GAH! BMG gave me great sales where I could get 3 or 4 CDs for under $30 with no shipping. I never buy from BMG unless discs are $3.99 or there is a no shipping sale. Now I'm becoming hard pressed to buy anything from them. GRRRR.

~ The Trump Marina in Atlantic City was sold back in May to Jimmy Buffett! Jimmy is going to turn it into a Margaritaville Casino. I plan on wasting away some time there when it opens if it kills me.

~ Has anyone heard of Judd Starr? I ran across his music this weekend and he's really fantastic. There's a bit of an 80s vibe to him but not a lot. I can't pinpoint who or what his sound resembles only that he's fantastic. Check out his album on Myspace

~ I wanted to go to Wendy's for breakfast, but for some reason I just don't feel good right now. It's just a blerghy feeling and I'm not really sick just not feeling quite right, if that makes sense.

~ I got my tickets to see Rockapella in Greensburg in November! We are about 5 rows back on the aisle! What a great year for concerts this has been. If only I could have caught up with the Moody Blues. But then again, I'd almost rather not. Everyone I've seen has been stellar and seeing them play the same songs would just depress me when they have such a huge catalog of music to draw from. Oh and I miss Bernie Barlow. I hope all is well with their former backup singer and her little one.

For any of you that aren't familiar with Rockapella, they used to appear on the kids game show Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiago. They are a fantastic acapella group with several albums to their credit. I can't wait to finally be able to see them.
