more other music

Whilst in Austin, as if the live music wasn't enough, my manfriends and I managed to visit Waterloo Records, where I picked up the following from the used cd recent arrivals.


Architecture In Helsinki:In Case We Die


Architecture In Helsinki:Fingers Crossed


Various Artists:Card Carrying Supporters of Romance


Kingsbury Manx:Aztec Discipline


The Papercuts:Can't Go Back


Scout Niblett:I Conjure Series


RJD2:Since We Last Spoke


Spiritualized:Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space


Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys:Tiffany Transcriptions Vol.2

Oh, and the only ACL artist CD I purchased was Cary Ann Hearst and the Gun Street Girls:Dust and Bones. Not just because it is a great album, and it was a total indie release, but because the cover was lovingly handcrafted with artwork of a skull with heart-shaped eyeholes. Observe.



Also, I have finished and ordered my "camera" stuff from cafepress. They are under the shop "Cameraholic", featuring my beloved Konica Auto S3, and I hope to add more designs. Observe.

Strange and wonderful treasures from our basement.















There's stuff in the basement, stuff in the attic, stuff in the garage. Cool, old stuff.
