Check out my photos of KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas at the Gibson Amphitheatre over at OC Weekly . My review is also over at OC Weekly .

I know that December tends to be a time to purchase gifts for friends and family members. But Shopping kind of sucks. Instead, go to a show? Thursday, December 6th El Gavachillo, Regimen Sinaloense  at Elbo Room El Gavachillo is a side project of Wil-Dog from Ozomatli. It's a band that does classic punk covers [...]

...Because exclamation points and 1's are on the same key! Hilarious. It's a good countdown this week. And for you "Punchy Intro" fans, the last 4 intros were recorded POST-MIDNIGHT!!! Countdown #111 ***Featuring*** The Black Keys fun. Gotye Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove Imagine Dragons Linkin Park M83 Of Monsters and Men The Offspring Silversun Pickups

Even though I'm writing this post at 10:58pm on the night before it goes up, it's only because we were at Rehoboth Beach all day and I only just got home. Seriously, doing the intros on the iPhone is tres unstressful and they tend to get me down recording quicker. I hope it's not because I'm sacrificing content... If I am, bear with me as I grow accustomed to this new way of doing things and then bear with me again when I get my new laptop and then everything will be great. When you see [...]

I won't go into the explanation of the title on here, but suffice it to say, I have a great new way of making these things and I'm very excited about it! It's a pretty standard countdown this week, which is to say, FANTASTIC. Enjoy everyone! Countdown #109 ***Featuring*** The Black Keys fun. Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove Imagine Dragons Linkin Park M83 Of Monsters and Men The Offspring Silversun Pickups Smashing Pumpkins

Oftentimes, I do this podcast and I feel like only my family is going to hear it and it doesn't matter what I find on the Internet, I'm pretty much alone. And then I hear back from the lovely people over at Having Said That and I realize that there are ACTUAL people out there that I've not met and they might notice if I talk about them! It's a wonderful feeling of connectedness. I mention them again on this episode. Don't be jealous :) Countdown #108 ***Featuring*** The Black [...]

Did I almost forget about this week's countdown? No. Did I almost not get it recorded? Yes. That happened. Sometimes having a life outside of the blog is so inconvenient! ;-) Big shoutout to Having Said That in this episode. Let's just say I tried something. I don't know if it's something i'm going to continue to try or what. I guess we'll have to see. [...]

Wasn't the Flashback last week fun? I wonder if people who didn't graduate that year got as much nostalgia from it as I did. I hope you enjoyed it in either case. We're back to present day this week and there's a bit of movement to come back to. I can't believe we're going into the THIRD summer of these countdowns. I love it. Countdown #106 ***Featuring*** The Black Keys fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove Imagine Dragons Linkin Park M83 Neon Trees Of Monsters and [...]

Hey all! Hope you are enjoying Memorial Day weekend! It's supposed to be nice where I live and I hope that it is nice where you live! Enjoy this countdown. I think that if you're looking for punchy, you're going to find it in the first 3 or 4 intros. Just a little tip! See you next week for a Flashback Countdown! We'll count down the top 10 from the first week of June 2001. Here's this week's countdown: Countdown #105 ***Featuring*** The Black Keys fun. [...]

Even though I'm adjusting to my new schedule at my new job and that's making it hard to do my other normal postings, I have enough experience making these podcasts that I can do them in one sitting if I put my mind to it. I should have a new laptop sometime this summer and I think that's going to mean a renaissance for this blog. I will have email submissions, my external hard drive, and my recording location all in one place. It's going to be killer. So. I made you a countdown. Hope you [...]

Yes it's true. I don't always knock countdowns out in one sitting. Usually it's more like two. Sometimes three sittings. This time it was three, but the third very nearly didn't happen at all! Thank goodness I have a routine where I look at the blogs before I go to bed (is that what people will do instead of "reading the paper" in 20 years? Is it actually what people mostly do now?) and that jarred the idea that I publish on Sunday mornings! But here it is in all it's glory. 103. Countdown [...]

So MCA (Adam Yauch) from the Beastie Boys died on Friday. He contributed so much to music right up to the very end. And he will be missed. The show this week pays tribute to him and the Beastie Boys in general. Enjoy it! Countdown #102 ***Featuring*** Beastie Boys The Black Keys fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove Linkin Park M83 Neon Trees Of Monsters and Men Red Hot Chili Peppers The Shins

Whoa. So Blogger's all weird now. I know that probably most of my listeners don't blog themselves (you should though!), but I guess they've changed the setup of what it looks like when I write a blog post. Things are in different places. It's like someone cleaned my house and moved all my stuff around. Eh, I'm sure I'll get used to it. So, we're in the 2nd 100 episodes now, huh? Pretty sweet. :) Enjoy this week's show! Countdown #101 ***Featuring*** The Black Keys Foo Fighters fun. [...]

So, this is the 100th podcast I've made that I've labeled a "Countdown". There are Flashback Countdowns and Off the Charts podcasts and stuff, but this is the 100th proper countdown of current chart hits. It's chock full of bonus songs, movement and perhaps for the first time on ANY podcast...Counting to 100 by 6! Enjoy this one! Tell your friends. Countdown #100 ***Featuring*** All-American Rejects AWOLNATION The Black Keys Foster the People Fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove Hoobastank Keith Urban M83 The Mars Volta [...]

I felt like I was on a first date with this week's podcast. I was talking too loud sometimes, too quietly other times, I was nervous, forgetting the points of stories...... But the music is great! :) It always is. Countdown #99 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Foo Fighters Foster the People Fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove M83 Rise Against Oh, also, in honor of #99....wasn't Barbara Feldon a knockout on Get Smart?

I seriously found myself thinking just now, "Wow, so when New Year's is on a Sunday, Easter is on a Sunday!"....Yeah. So, that's where my head is. How are you? :) We're quickly approaching 100 episodes and I couldn't be more stoked. Actually, I will be more stoked. Next week! Countdown #98 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Blink-182 Foo Fighters Foster the People Fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove M83 Rise Against

This has been a lot of fun and I'll never forget all the memories, but I think it's time for me to do something else with the time I have been using to do this podcast. Thanks for listening and thanks for all the support. Countdown #97 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Evanescence featuring Paul McCoy Foo Fighters Foster the People Fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Grouplove M83 Pearl Jam Rise Against [...]
