THE BLANK GENERATION

Trying hard to not keep up with the Joneses in 2005.

So, today at work...

...I lost what little interest I still had in completing the task at hand: finishing my edit of a poorly written "memoirs" book by a college coaching legend. As it so often happens, the internet became my cure for boredom. But on this particular afternoon, instead of playing mini-golf or cruising the forums at Garage Punk for interesting threads (sorta like hunting for a wrinkle-free portion of skin on Iggy Pop's face), I decided to do something that I've thought about doing for some time now—create my own blog.

I know, blogs are so...predictable. So...personal. So...21st century cool. So...everyone's uncle on their mom's side already has their own blog about the Grateful Dead. So...fucking EMO. But, I'd like to have a vehicle to share my thoughts on music & culture with my peeps—all five of you. So, we'll see if this thing works. Maybe I'll ditch it in a week. Or, maybe, if I can bring a bit of ELO to the world of EMO, I'll find it a worthwhile diversion. It shouldn't be too difficult to top mini-golf, should it?

In the coming days I'll be adding some thoughts on new albums by Swedish pop sensation Jens Lekman and Montreal's newest craze, Arcade Fire. Plus, part one (of two, or maybe three) of a review on some available DVDs on The Band which I've recently discovered.

P.S. Not to be confused with this Blank Generation, which hasn't been updated in over a year, THE Blank Generation is way cooler. The article is the key, kids!
