Ziggy Played Guitar....

....jamming good with Wierd and Gelly, and the spiders from Mars.

I'm lo-teching it today. I have a ton of music on my computer here at work, and the Honda only has a tape player. So I huffed one of our component stereo systems into work, and right now I'm transfering David Bowie from MP3 to cassette tape. That's right: high-end digital sound files being transfered to cassette tapes. How cool is that, right? I started with "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" (that's got to be the longest album title ever!) only it's the Special Re-Issue from Rykodisc (1990) with five extra bonus tracks. Yea, bonus tracks.






Next weekend I'm heading off to the beach for my Dad's Bachelor Party at Seaside. We got a suite at the Breakers and will spend the weekend smoking cigars, playing poker, drinking beer, and golfing; you know, all that "manley" stuff. I'm looking forward to it - I haven't had an opportunity to hang out with my Dad's friends since I became an adult (mostly). Then the day we get back (Sunday), Gina and I are going to see the Decemberists at Edgefield. I'm pumped for that too! I've wanted to see them live for years now and Gina got us tickets! Rock on!!






So there you go - What My Weekend Will Look Like by Chris Alexander. I don't have anything else funny or amazing to say now. But as always, watch out for Fighting Cats!
