Saturday Night Tunes - Pissing Off DreKeem Since 2011

The first person to tell me that today is Sunday, not Saturday, will be forced to listen to the new Belle and Sebastien.
Welcome to today's edition of Saturday Night Tunes, where I can learn you about the music I've been listening to while making fun of your musical tastes. Because I'm in Austin and I can, that's why.1
For a change, my music has been oddly tame and uni-genre recently. David Bazan's Strange Negotiations, which could be considered somewhat hipster douchebag, adds some nice singer-songwriter action to my ears. Sometimes, it's nice to bring the house down before cranking it up.
Sloan kicks it up a notch. From Canada, one of the few remaining power pop bands, hit their 20th year together releasing The Double Cross (get it?). At times, it sounds like a soundtrack from a Will Ferrell movie, but it makes my old, white ass want to get up and dance, too. Though, you know, it's not like they're playing a Czech waltz or conjunto.
Finally, and getting the most play over the past month is Thievery Corporation's latest release, Culture of Fear. As somebody who enjoys music from wherever, its international flavor is especially enticing to me.
What about you, BRB? What are you fine people listening to?
1 It's scientifical and stuff. Like 62. Or 42.

Today was brew day for me.
Another couple weeks we’ll have teh football matches, so I’ll have to brew on Saturdays. Real Saturdays (not Sundays posing as Saturdays)
I brewed an Amber Ale (similar to Saint Arnold Amber) and listened to:
Mumford & Sons
Dimmu Borgir
Oasis

Mumford would be way up there for me
Probably in the top three. But I mentioned them a couple months ago and wanted to be more original. Because I’m cooler that way.

I don’t see the appeal of Mumford and Sons. Not a terrible band, though.

I brewed on Saturday
We did 10 gal of Oktoberfest and 10 of a crazy hoppy IPA. This will be my first go at dry hopping.
We listened to some Buffet and reggae.
Because we live in Florida and it was awesome on Saturday, that’s why.
Did you do the Oktoberfest as a lager or an ale?
I know some people are doing it as an ale right now, because of time. Saint Arnold Oktoberfest is an ale. I was thinking of doing something similar since I don’t have a way to lager yet.
Ale
I wanted to do it as a lager, but I don’t have lagering capabilities yet. I’ve heard that if you use an ale yeast and then still chill it after secondary fermentation, it can clear up and become crisp like a lager. This is my first go at it, but people I’ve talked to said they get pretty good results without going through the pain in the ass of lagering.
/wrists
Did I somehow mistype www.whogivesafuckwhatkindofmusicyoulistento.com? My bad…I was just hoping for some more insightful views on the Texans and I’m a little bummed that it’s an article like this. :D Give me some Gary P Nunn over your fancy pancy jazz, pop, rock or whatever you prefer any day of the week. Texas country ftw…Go Texans.

Must Check Out:
The Weeknd… he just released his latest mixtape (Album Quality, better than most) THURSDAY… this past Thursday
His breakthough album was his first mixtape titled, HOUSE OF BALLOONS
Style: Neo-R&B, Downcast music…
Even if you’re not a fan of R&B, I can assure you that you will enjoy this as I was never a big fan of R&B either.
A song from 1st album: The Morning
Song from newest album: Lonely Star
He’s still independent but works with Drake… check him out.
Both The Weeknd and Frank Ocean are the future of R&B.
WTF? Links didnt show up...
The Morning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TAko3RH0bk

Enjoying it now. Kind of R&B mixed with electronica.

Are you an Ian Moore fan BFD?
I went and saw him play last Friday at the Continental Club, here in Houston. It was a kind of reunion show for his original band. It was really excellent.
Next Saturday I’m going to DVR the game and go check out the Chris Robinson Project (From the Black Crowes) at Fitz.
Haven't heard of him in a while
Glad to hear he’s still out there playing.

Yup, does an acoustic thing the past several years
But is mixing it up with some band stuff. He’s grown a lot as a musician. I try to catch him as much as I can when he comes through town.
I'll have to explore

Lots of Gillian Welch, and lots of Joel Plaskett.
Gillian Welch is an Appalachian folk singer (paired with David Rawlings) whose album Time (the Revelator) has quickly become one of my all time favorites. Here’s a song of her’s that floors me every time I hear it:
Joel Plaskett is a Canadian rock artist. Not really heavy rock, and usually he has a pretty uplifting sense of humor. Here’s a song from an album that’s a bit darker than his norm, though (and one that I guess inspired the Scott Pilgrim author?):

I also finding myself listening to more of:
Leonard Cohen

OT:
bfd, my lil sis just moved up to Austin today(tu freshman), and I think I’ll be headed up there for a longhorns game or two.
Any recommendations for good(cheap) places to stay/get tickets for games?
I promise I’ll leave my saw ’em off shirts at home.

I’m sure that there are people out there who violently disagree with me on most things, and I’m broad-minded enough to concede that they might possibly not be complete idiots, but I much prefer the company of people who agree with me."
Hmmmm
You can always go the scalper route for tickets. Craigslist is good, too. As far as cheap places to stay? We’ve had a lot of luck with priceline type sites. You pay a premium to stay near the stadium, but you also don’t need to worry about driving and parking and shit. Austin is completely walkable. It’s only 15ish blocks from the stadium to downtown.

90’s grunge owns. They could play less Pearl Jam though. XM has a Pearl Jam channel. No need to play a bunch on Lithium.
Why do you say this to me, when you know I will kill you for it?
Topic related AND OT in one post!!!
Topic related: Incubus is coming to Houston in September. See 3EB in concert. Do not see Cake.
Jamming lately: Faith No More, Incubus, Lonely Island, Mighty Mighty Boss Tones, CKY, The Scraps(my old band(not a plug, just been jonesing for some of my old music lately)), Jane’s Addiction, Dead Kennedys, Audioslave, Rage Against the Machine(which I find to be an oxymoron considering they’re on Sony’s label).
OT related, but Texans related: I really hope that Favre plays for the Indianapolis Colts. Our LBs and D-line would probably make his ass stay in retirement… hopefully.

Never use a long word where a short one will do.
If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
Never use the passive where you can use the active.
Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.
-Orwell, Politics and the English Language

BTW...
Can we agree that ClearChannel, I<3radio, and Cumulus are the worst things ever to happen to radio?
San Antonio has a really great station(can’t remember the #, but it’s in the lower 90s… maybe 92.1 or something) that played damn near every different type of indie genre along with some Ska and Hank III. Wish Houston had something more along those lines.
