Confessions of a Music Addict

Shh. Don't tell anybody, but I have some secrets about music. Shh. Let's keep this between us, okay?

* I despise Kanye West's music, but part of that's because he's a self-absorbed twit who plays the race card in entirely-inappropriate situations. Like during the post-Katrina charity spot that he did for TV. Jerk.

* Everybody who knows me well, knows that I'm a Phil Collins/Genesis fan. The dude plays a mean drum kit, man. If it weren't for those crazy skills, I wouldn't listen. But I do. Because you just can't argue with the guy's talent.

* I own, and enjoy, a Northern State album ("Dying in Stereo").

* When my parents, during The Eagles' "Hell Freezes Over" tour, left me at home to babysit instead of taking me, I was more ticked about them showing up too late to see, and report on, Melissa Etheridge's opening act than I was about missing The Eagles. That's kind of sad, when you think about it.
