So, we made it up to WI. Stopped at Half Price Books in Madison on our way up. I hadn't been to one of those in ages, so it was great fun to look around and see what I could find. They had a LOT of cool music. I came home with the following:
Drag It Up - Old 97's
Blame It On Gravity - Old 97's
Legends Of The 20th Century - Eddie Cochran
Fox Confessor Brings The Flood - Neko Case
Red House - Jimi Hendrix
We Walked In Song - The Innocence Mission
Now The Day Is Over - The Innocence Mission
Birds Of My Neighborhood - The Innocence Mission
Puddle Dive - Ani DiFranco
Ever since I bought Satellite Rides, I've wanted to pick up more Old 97's stuff, so that was a cool find.
The only thing I know about The Innocence Mission is from their appearance on the Empire Records Soundtrack, but I enjoyed what they had on that compilation, so three records by them should be an adventure in listening.
Brought the electric with me. I know there probably won't be a ton of time to play, but I know I'll pick it up for at least a little bit each day, and that alone was worth bringing along an instrument. Truthfully, I go a little bit crazy if I don't bring along something instrument-wise when I leave home.
If the weather doesn't get too bad, I'd love to take a few minutes and grab some of the guitar magazines out of the storage unit while we're here, too. The issues of Guitar World Acoustic especially. We shall see.
All told, a good day today. It's good to be home for more than 24 hours, even if the reason for the visit isn't the happiest.
