Tuesday Tunes - 11/10/09

Tunes to be thankful for:

It's November and this month is about giving thanks, tell us a few of the musical things that you are thankful for, be it albums, shows you've seen, electronics you've bought etc. Whatever has made your musical life better in the last year.

I'd like to thank the following . . .

Pandora and Grooveshark for giving me hours of great tunes to enjoy.

BeauSoleil for releasing two new albums this year, one with a live DVD, and playing another show here last month.

Billy Corgan for making his next album/project totally free (now get to releasing the songs, Bill!)

My iPod for lasting nearly two and a half years and allowing me to never, ever be bored no matter where I am.

Record stores everywhere for giving old folks like me a place to engage in our favorite ritual.

Anyone who has sold a used CD that I've purchased this year.

Last, but never least, each and every one of my favorite bands and musicians for doing what they do and making me happy.
