2006.01.02 been a long time:
been a long time since we've rock and rolled, huh? I just wanted to check in with various top…somethings for 2005, the (incredibly shitty) year that was.
Top 5 Albums of 2005:
Boris – Pink
The Constantines – Tournament of Hearts
Spoon – Gimme Fiction
Queens of the Stone Age – Lullabies to Paralyze
Low – The Great Destroyer
Best Movie I Saw This Year:
Batman Begins (I saw it twice in the same day)
Best Movie I Didn't See:
Good Night and Good Luck (I should really go see that fuckin' movie)
Best Show L&N Played All Year:
Joe's birthday party at Uncle P's. A close runner-up would be the show with Breather Resist and Lords, but only because we broke up immediately after we got done playing.
Favorite New (to me) Restaurant:
Stan's Fish Sandwich or #1 Asian Buffet. It's a toss-up.
Favorite Band of the Moment:
Boris.
Best Reason For Not Updating This Blog:
Didn't feel like my life was very interesting. That and the bitter, bitter self-hatred.
