Need Music?

Click here to get any of my CDs for $1

In the last few months one of my good friends, Joe, got me all excited about a new "beta" site called lala.com. If you have not heard of this, you will. The concept is simple. You sign up through thier website ( go to lala.com ) for free. You go through your CD collection and list the ones that you have. You can also search an enormous database of artists listed and when you find a CD that you want, simply click "want" under the disc. Here is the best part: any CD you purchase costs ONLY $1.49 with shipping. In theory, you could have any CD you have ever wanted and some you have never heard of but heard samples while searching for $1.49. Lala.com will send you out hard cases and envelopes (like Netflix) to mail your CD's out when others request them. Another great thing they have done is take 20% of all profits and donate it to musicians health care. It is completely legal, and works great. I am not in sales for them, I just love the idea of finding new music for such a small cost. Check it out!

Theater


Well, the entire family went out last night. We went to the Orpheum in downtown Minneapolis and saw Wicked. If you unaware of this show, it is the story about the good witch and the wicked witch from "The Wizard of Oz" before they turned into witches. The storyline was good, the singing was good, I was still a bit bored. I have come to the conclusion that I simply cannot enjoy musicals. Jessica enjoyed it more than I did.
