I've thought of something.

We're all wonderfully individual people, yes? And by that individuality, we all have different tastes.

We also, as people, have experiences that we would love to share with others. Our lives are just one great big experience, and we can learn much from studying our own lives.

So... tell me. Is there something you want everyone to do? Listen to a piece of music? Visit somewhere? Talk to someone, ask them anything? Have sex? Watch a film? Read a book? Play a game? Anything! If you loved the experience, then why not share it with us, and try and convince us to do what you did.

And anyone who reads it, I think, should make every effort to do so. Hell, we live just the once, right? So why shouldn't we try and sample everything we can?

Come on then, what do you want us to do?

(First: "Shut up?")

(Second: "Oh! I was going to write that!")

My fav LZ songs are 'Going to California' and 'When the Levee Breaks'. I got lucky because they came together on that album. I read something about Wayne's World the other day. When he goes to buy the guitar and plays the 'May I have some service riff', it's not Stairway like the attendant points out he shouldn't play. Then I looked it up on the IMDB and apparently they weren't allowed to use the riff but left in the script. Fancy that!

And Gil Scott Heron "The revolution will not be televised"

I've got Led Zeppelin "Black Dog" on right now and it's why I play music, the drums specifically.
Just check the drumming out and imagine being allowed to play like that in front of people once a month.

I love music.

I love PPK - Resurrection. That kind of music usually isn't my thing, but that song I really really like.

Ok, as we seem to be on music here, this is a list of a few tracks that I really like, that some people may not have heard of. I recommend all of them, so just pick any of the list and download them to see what sort of stuff I'm into...

Lovage - "Stroker Ace"

Fila Brazillia - "Serratia Marcescens"

4 Hero - "Les Fleur"

The Animal House - "Small"

Clint Boon Experience - "White No Sugar"

Dust Junkies - "Non Stop Operation"

Parker - "Mrs Jones"

The Music - "Take The Long Road And Walk It"

South - "Keep Close"

GraveDiggaz - "Diary Of A Madman"

Jurrasic 5 - "Concrete Schoolyard"

Finley Quaye - "Sunday Shining"

Art Of Noise - "Moments In Love"

Barthezz - "On The Move"

PPK - "Resurrection"

Space Brothers - "Shine"

Yahel - "Waves Of Sound."

Some of you may not like any of those tracks, some may like a few, and I'll be well impressed if someone likes all of them!

They are just some of the less well known tracks that I'm into at the moment. They cover a variety of genres, so just becuase you don't like one of them, please don't ignore the rest of them!

Enjoy.
