I haven't done a roundup since February 4th.  Here's what's I wrote about on my other blog, art is the new religion, during the rest of February*:

2/6: I found the simple life, ain't so simple
The genius of David Lee Roth.

2/11: A Not So Happy Birthday
Sharing music-related memories of my father, on what would have been his 74th birthday.

2/12: Dschinghis Khan & Diamond Dave
Amusing.

2/14: Louder Than Love
Thinking about my early crush on Soundgarden on Valentine's Day.

2/19: Where Is My Mind?
Yoav's cover of Pixies' "Where Is My Mind?" is intriguing, but unfortunately the rest of his music is not.  Also, props to KGSR's Jody Denberg for playing it, and congrats to my friend Andy Langer on his new gig at the station.

A perfect use for my Rhapsody subscription:  to preview the new Audioslave album.

My love affair with Chris Cornell has spanned over a decade.  He's given me nearly 20 years of music that I love, love, love, from Soundgarden to Temple of the Dog to his solo stuff.  And I mostly like the first few Audioslave albums, I do.

But at this point, on album number three, Tom Morello's wah-wah-wank-wank is getting on my last nerve.  Get. A. New. Riff.

P.S. If anyone wants to take me to dinner at Chris' new restaurant in Paris, I've got my passport ready.

I'm just sayin'.
