http://rcrdlbl.com/ is a music blog I stumbled across the other day and have grown to like. It was started a year ago by Peter Rojas, who also co-founded Engadget.

I really like the original track by Justice and who doesn’t like Mos Def?

When football came home

I hadn’t heard this track for years and stumbled across it today. It probably won’t do much for my American audience but this track still gives me goosebumps, despite England winning nothing.

Song of the week

It’s not a new track but I just rediscovered it. Dennis Hopper’s storytelling is really cool.

It’s December already and the Christmas tree is up. Or should that be the Holiday tree? The Christmas songs are playing in the shops, although I still haven’t heard any Slade, Band Aid or Wizzard yet. Oh, and its 20 degrees today, heheh.

Its Christmas time

Yesterday I saw the first Christmas advert of the year and today I saw several houseswith lights on the outside. The most annoying thing is that every shop we went into in the mall was playing Christmas music. I was under the impression that they wait until after Thanksgiving out here to start the Christmas stuff but that’s not until Thursday.

I’ve heard its getting a bit chilly out there now, the thermometer in the car today read 80 F and my face is a little burned from being outdoors all day working on Derek’s car. Not that I’m gloating or anything, it’s still getting dark by 5pm though.

Has anyone in England seen Christmas stuff out yet?
