An epic music day…

July 7th, 2010

So it seems today was certainly the right day to go to Goodwill. Luckily for me, there is a big one right by my job. I dropped by primarily to find some new (so to speak) jeans. Thankfully, I did; I found two pairs that seemed like they had been custom made for me. Woot! But the added bonus to these finds was, as the title suggests, the music I found.

Before I get to those, though, my 3rd book cover has finally been made public. You can see it here on Amazon.com. I’m so excited to have my name on another book cover, and am so grateful to both Random House and Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. It gives me such a feeling of accomplishment to see my art on display. Which reminds me, I hope Random House sends me a copy of the book like they did the last two times. *crosses fingers* Teehee.

Anyway, here’s the CDs I bought today at Goodwill for $2 each:


Ah, yes… one of my fave down and dirty industrial bands. I also found a MLWTTK single, but I decided to buy this EP instead.


Yep, found two albums from The Church. I just couldn’t pass them up. They were in brand new condition, practically. The wonderful employees at Goodwill even managed to put a piece of electrical tape on the case so that no one could steal the CD and leave the case behind. LOL.


I absolutely LOVELOVELOVE Roxette. They may not be in my top 10 bands usually, but they’re definitely up there. Every song they made is a hit. Every last one.


This one now marks my second album from Jesus and Mary Chain. I’m not a huge fan, but I knew I couldn’t pass up buying it.


This one was brand new; still in its original store plastic wrapping. Yea. This one was a no-brainer. This marks my third album from Gravity Kills.


Mwahaha. Yes yes yes. I couldn’t believe when I found this, and am glad I am still adding to my ever expanding Depeche Mode collection. And just for the record, this is now the 10th album I own from Depeche Mode.

I’m not a huge AC/DC fan, but the bands that were chosen to cover their songs made this a worthwhile purchase: Electric Hellfire Club, Die Krupps, Spahn Ranch, Pigface, Razed in Black, Sister Machine Gun, 16 Volt, and more.

I might just go back next week and see if I can find some more CDs. Hehe.

No sleep for the wicked…

August 31st, 2009

Yep. My man and I are still awake. It seems the Sandman decided to take a vacation to Aruba tonight. But at least we’re in the same room so we can chit-chat, as opposed to him being in his studio and me being in the bedroom. LOL. He’s on his laptop looking up info on music gear.

I’ve been on a search for new music lately, particularly techno and some industrial. I’m madly in love with this one remix of The Prodigy’s “Girls” track, and several remixes of Lady Gaga’s “LoveGame”. For a long while I avoided Lady Gaga like the black plague, but dammit, she has me hooked! I love that she’s bringing techno back in a big way. She’s kind of like Peaches, only a little more attractive. HAHA.

I’m very excited for this Saturday. I’m going to see Depeche Mode live in Ft. Lauderdale with my best friend Chris. Unfortunately, Audi isn’t going, and that’s mainly because I bought the tickets when he and I weren’t together. *shrug* But, I know I will still have an awesome time. =)

My family that lives in West Palm Beach drove down to my parents’ house yesterday, and they were kind enough to bring the rest of my stuff up to their house. Sooo, I don’t need to drive for two hours to Miami! I can just drive the 20 minutes to my aunt’s house and pick up my stuff there. Woot! Hence, since I don’t have to drive down to Miami anymore, I’m going to be taking the train down to my parents’ house on Saturday. Chris will be driving us to the show.

And as a final note, I would like to give a shoutout to an old friend and her two spectacular sites, UglyArt.Net & UglyArtDotNet.Etsy.Com. If you like the unique and bizarre, you will love her stuff.
