“The Waiting” - Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers (live, 1985)
I never thought much of Tom Petty’s music until I saw him on tour with The Black Crowes in 2005. Goddamn he puts on a show! I didn’t realize just how much of his music I knew.
“The Waiting” is today’s soundtrack.

Neil Finn - “Stuff and Nonsense” (Live / April 19, 2011)
Covering his brother Tim’s song that he wrote/performed with Split Endz (1978ish?).
I can give you the present,
I don’t know ‘bout the future,
That’s all stuff and nonsense.
The Beautiful South “Closer Than Most”
“All I Want” - Toad The Wet Sprocket
♫ Nothing’s so cold
As closing the heart when all we need
Is to free the soul
But we wouldn’t be that brave I know
And the air outside so soft, confessing everything
Everything ♫
“Laramie” - Amy Ray (one part Indigo Girls) - 2008
"Out That Door" by Hoodoo Gurus
Guadalcanal Diary station on Pandora Radio is excellent. This is the song currently playing on the station.
VIDEO: “Nicotina (She’s All That)” by Big Sugar
This is a song I gratuitously love and probably listen to at least once a week. If you check out their website, turn down the volume on your computer first. Alas, they think it’s a good idea to auto-play music. Despite that pesky oddity, Big Sugar is an awesome rock and roll band from Canada.
Video of my favorite song by The Old Ceremony - “Papers In Order.” They’re at The Middle East Downstairs on 2/16. Good times, good times. (TIX)
Today’s soundtrack: “Transatlanticism” - Death Cab For Cutie
