You don't have to go (to college)

I'd like to welcome a new contributor to this here fair blog.

Her name is Kate, and she's a very close friend of mine, who happens to have stolen her music taste from me it seems. She's gonna help me fill album requests as well as occasionally sticking her neck out and posting an album on her own.

Here's an interview so you can get to know her a little better:

Me: So kate, what's your name and what do you do?
Kate: Well, my names is Kate, and I do Henry.
Me: Who are some of your favorite musicians?
Kate: Blitzen Trapper, My Morning Jacket, I mean, anything that's Henry's favorites.
Me: What's your least favorite crustacean?
Kate: Are crabs crustaceans? If not, Lobster. If not lobster, I just don't know what a crustacean is.
Me: Paleozoic or Mesozoic, which was more badass?
Kate: I'm not into rocks. That's your thing.
Me: But those are eras!
Kate: Eras about rocks!
Me: You rock my world.
Kate: Awww you rock mine sometimes too.
Me: Thanks...

I'll post that Blitzen Trapper S/T later on tonight, if that's cool with you all (it is.)

Of Montreal- Skeletal Lamping

Hey all, currently uploading this album, but while it's being hosted, I have a question:

Is it worth it to continue running this blog? I love supplying y'all with good tunes, but tomorrow I move into my apartment for college, and I'm not too sure that my ISP will be too pleased with me uploading music (or downloading it for that matter.) I hate to have to drop blogging for a while, but I figure I'll still be able to post an album or two a week. That is, unless someone wants to help me maintain this blog? If you feel up to it, just shoot me an email or a comment.

I updated the layout a little bit today, hope it looks okay.

Upcoming Uploads:
the Avett Bro's Emotionalism
M. Ward's Duet for Guitars #2
Calexico's Carried to Dust
Langhorne Slim's Diamonds & Gold
Bombadil's A Buzz, A Buzz

P.S. If you don't have Mount Eerie's Dawn, you'd better get it. Moon Sequel isn't quite as touching as the live cut of it where Phil breaks down, but overall, the albums has a lot of great versions of old Mount Eerie songs. Also, if you don't have the Glow Pt. 2, leave me a comment and I'll upload it, but ONLY if you'll go out afterwards and buy the new vinyl re-issue of the album. It's very worth having.
