day late and a dollar short: random 10

So, after work yesterday, I headed into Boston to see Guster at the Pavillion. I'd never been to the venue before--outdoors right on the harbor...a great location and boy, did the boys from Boston put on a great show!

I tried to use Pandora, but it won't work (can't hear it on this computer), so we'll just turn to the ol' iPod. I'm kicking it off with a song from last night, but we'll see where it spins after that. No apron-wringing!

1. barrel of a gun (lost and gone forever)--guster
2. mercy of the fallen (beauty of the rain)--dar williams
3. seven years (come away with me)--norah jones
4. he loves the road (love and china)--nerissa and katryna nields
5. sarah maria (gorilla)--james taylor
6. all together singing in the kitchen (all together singing in the kitchen)--the nields
7. an innocent man (the essential collection)--billy joel
8. the city of new orleans (hobo's lullaby)--arlo guthrie
9. teenagers, kick our butts (the end of summer)--dar williams
10. jack and diane (american fool)--john mellencamp

Random Thoughts: My iPod's crush on the sisters Nields continues.

Seen Live: Guster, Dar, The Nields, Billy Joel

Enjoying: Barrel of a Gun, Sarah Maria and Teenagers

Lyric with Best Use of Simile:
Fragile as a leaf in autumn/Just fallin' to the ground/Without a sound
