Nothing new to read...so listen instead!

I've been really tired and sick feeling the past few days. I feel like I'm trying to catch a cold, but yet it's not fully what you could call a cold. I would rather have a real cold instead of this halfway cold. So I don't feel like doing much...including blogging.

One bright spot though...remember this post where I mentioned the Avion CD? Well, I've been listening to it the past couple of weeks and it's just awesome! It's a well-balanced combination of songs that rock and very nicely done ballads*. You can listen to songs from the CD at the Avion website. Also, I'm putting a song from the CD up on my radio blog for a couple of days -- "Bulletproof Glow". If you like what you hear, go buy the CD!

Another song I'm putting up there is "Hate to Say I Told You So" by the Hives. Why? Because it rocks, that's why. And because I picked it to be my "entrance music" in this Thinklings thread. (Come to think of it, "Bulletproof Glow" would also make an excellent "entrance song".)

I will probably change out all the songs in the radio blog in a couple of days. I think I will start putting up ten songs at a time and changing them each month. The radio blog is on the sidebar, under "Site Extras".

*Normally, I have a tendency to hate ballads. In the wrong hands, ballads can be treacly, overdone and bombastic. But that is not the case here. What makes a ballad work is simplicity and sincerity, and the ballads on Avion work wonderfully.
