This is just a list I've been adding to (and not taking away from) for ages now, of bands I've decided at the time deserved a place on it. Looking at some of them now, there are a few I hardly like at all any more, so it's not 100% representative of my taste, but neither are my overall charts. Perhaps they balance eachother.

WELL DUH THIS SHIT IS VARIED

KANYE NEXT TO THE PIERCES???? YEAH, IT'S VARIED.

1.How did you get into no.29?
Kaada: He did a collaboration with Mike Patton titled Romances, so when his name showed up as one of the musicians performing in Wrocław, during Era New Horizons festival, I checked out his solo works and liked them. The gig was surprising, but very good. Chatted with him a little after the show, very modest guy. He was very nervous about the sound. But he sounded great.

2. What's the first song you ever heard by no.22?
M83: Probably something from Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts album, Unrecorded or Run Into Flowers. It was during listening to Irrumare's library. But it wasn't until I've heard America that made me listen to the whole album. Heavy stuff, but very ethereal at the same time.

3. Whats your favorite lyric by no.33?
Hanne Hukkelberg: It will be either the sung from the perspective of a bomb, You guessed it - Ticking Bomb or the suicidal story of The Pirate. Can't decide… :-/

4. How did you get into no.49?
The Young Gods: I've read an article in a polish music mag Tylko Rock (Only Rock). It was about industrial. Something like, 20 industrial albums every metalhead should know, and there was T.V. Sky. The fact that they used synths to sound as guitars made me give them a try.

5. How many albums by no.13 do you own?
Björk: None physically. Virtually almost everything she has released.

6. What is your favorite song by no.50?
Vermillion Lies: That's easy - Shady. Makes my heart beat faster, almost like coffee...

7. Is there a song by no.39 that makes you sad?
Cranes: Almost every, but Bewildered is my pick.

8. What is your favorite song by no.15?
Squarepusher: Lately, I think it's Port Rhombus.

9. What is your favorite song by no.5?
Barbara Morgenstern: Nichts muss. Especially the ending...

11. What is the worst song by no.40?
Venetian Snares: All of his songs are terrible… ^_^

12. What is your favorite song by no.10?
Nine Inch Nails: Tough choice. I think it's Just Like You Imagined, cause it has so many trademark NIN elements. Other than that, La Mer is great too...

13. What is a good memory you have involving no.30?
Deluka: I don't know, nothing comes to mind. Maybe the fact they commented on my MySpace profile? :-)

14. What is your favorite song by no.38?
The Cure: I won't be original - Lovesong. But I've got good reasons to justify this unoriginal choice...

15. Is there a song by no.19 that makes you happy?
Four Tet: She Moves She sounds like a forthcoming adventure...

16. Is there a song by no.25 that makes you sad?
Ellen Allien: Wish.

Ladytron: Fighting In Built Up Areas. I don't understand a word from it.

19. Who is a favorite member of no.1?
Plaid: Eh, Andy Turner? Sorry Ed, blame the coin.

Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton: No good memories. She only makes me sad.

22. What is your favorite song by no.16?
Portishead: The first one I heard of them, Sour Times. I like their new sound more, butSour Times was first… :-)

23. What is the first song you ever heard by no.47?
Doubting Thomas: Nagual Tone, I think...

24. What is your favorite album by no.18?
Nouvelle Vague: Bande a Part is more consistient, so I'll pick that one, but their debut had better songs.

25. What is your favorite song by no.21?
I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness: If It Was Me.

26. What is the first song you ever heard by no.26?
Crystal Castles: I don't remember, but I disliked it. Foolish me.

27. What is your favorite album by no.3?
The Dresden Dolls: Their debut. Good Day is one of the best album openers.

28. What is you favorite song by no.2?
Suzanne Vega: Private Goes Public. Simple and beautiful. But Caramel is next to it.

29. What was the first song you ever heard by no.32?

34. What is the worst song by no.45?
Michael Giacchino: Anything from Lost OST.

35. What was the first song you ever heard by no.34?
Fink: Kamlyn. Heard it on Last.fm. So subtle, but grabs Your attention at once.

36. What was the first song you ever heard by no.48?
Queens of the Stone Age: Feel Good Hit Of The Summer on Viva Zwei. OrThe Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret, can't be sure. The first one irritated me, the second bored me. Foolish me, again.

37. How many times have you seen no.42 live?
Fiona Apple: Unfortunatley, never.

38. What is you favorite song by no.36?

Sat 21 Mar – Amanda Palmer

This past weekend I drove up to Houston, Texas to go see an Amanda Palmer concert with my girlfriend. She loves Amanda Palmer so she was extremely excited. She even cried when I told her about the show.

Well after an excruciating drive of about 5 or 6 hours, we got to her Aunt's house where we would be staying the night. We left for the House of Blues around 6:00 and got in line at 7:30 after eating. Luckily the doors opened at 8 so we got great spots. We we were pretty much dead center about with only two people in front of us.

The opening act was a group called Vermillion Lies. I didn't expect much because I've never been impressed by an opening act, but these two girls were great. They were funny, plus they kept talking about their love for New Orleans and, being from Louisiana, I thought it was cool to hear their perspective of the city.

When Amanda Palmer finally came out on stage I thought that my girlfriend was going to have a heart attack. I had to hold her up to keep her from fainting. She was completely awestruck for the first couple of songs, but eventually she got into it and started singing along. It was cool because the show was more interactive than any I'd been to before. She sort of talked to the audience for a bit, let people ask questions. Some of the fans were annoying, but Amanda was kind enough to tell them to shut up. She also stood up on her bench and modeled some 'What's in the Box?' underwear for Vermillion Lies.

Afterwards, we stuck around and bought some merchandise. My girlfriend got a poster and a pair of the underwear (ha), and I picked up an awesome 7" pressed on red vinyl by Vermillion Lies. I got it autographed by the two sisters for added awesomeness. My girlfriend also got her poster signed by Amanda Palmer. It was funny because she walked up to her and handed her the poster, but just kind of stared not saying anything. Amanda laughed and gave her a hug; it was cute. Overall, a great night and lots of fun. I suggest anyone nearby one of the remaining shows in the tour go see it.
