Music recommendations

This was important that I posted 3 songs for todays recommendation.
I will however dedicate this to a dear friend miss Lisa.

So Lisa, please take notes. 

First Im going to talk about a band Cheers Elephant.   Although Jenny MAY have hated this band when we saw them at World Cafe Live this past week or two, I found them to be quite the dance party. The first time seeing them over at Johnny Brendas months and months earlier. I cannot seem to shake out of my head the image of an astronaut dancing around stage along with lets say 30 other people including the band. This looked like a giant surprise party to me on stage... with an astronaut.  The important part is I did hear a new song(new album of course) on WXPN earlier today which is why they are my first recommendation.   Did I happen to Mention this was produced by Todd Mecaughey release January 8th 2011? He was the astronaut and an old friend of mine. 


Second lets talk about a song and band I just happen to hear tonight. My timing was beyond perfect for this little gem.  Yes I know I'm probably VERY late in hearing/liking them but this is too good to pass. Carrisa's Wierd. The song I cant stop listening to is Die. It looks like they disbanded in about 2003 although as most of us Get up Kids and Kid Dynamite fans know miracles DO happen and bands DO get back together(even if sometimes they shouldn't make new albums).  I still think the best era for music had to have been about 1998-2001. Ill stand by that statement to this day. Check these guys out and if you feel so inclined to download some songs, just google them and you'll find some free sites.

Last but hardly least right before I heard my second recommendation I happen to hear a screamy little number by Boyfriends.  I don't know much about them since it seems their "blog" however hardly updated does not explain much as a profile. I did however hear on the video that I stalked that they are from Lancaster, Pa which makes me VERY happy. Now if only I could get them to play closer to me or provide a couch to sleep on in the land of amish, cows, and hardcore.  Check out the song and video  "Those Dude Boys".  Oh how I love a good scream sometimes. 

I hope this is enough for you ackward music fans.  Till next time.
