    I'm kinda disappointed with Stadium Arcadium though. With all the hype surrounding it, I expected more for some reason. Oh well, it's not bad, just expected more.

      If you enjoy the more poppy songs off the album (Yellow Sun, Hands, etc), then definitely look into Brendan's albums. Its great catchy, pop-rock.

        I really love it the first couple songs arent my favorite but right about number 4 the CD picks up steam and then it gets really damn good and im glad i bought it. But i downloaded it first just to make sure i would like it.

          Thanks to Circuit City's Memorial Day sale, I picked up two Beatles CDs for $9.99 a piece: Magical Mystery Tour and Revolver.

          This past week I ordered three CDs from yourmusic.com and hopefully they'll come in the mail sometime this week:
          Jeff Buckley - Grace
          The Police - Outlandos D'Amous
          Janis Joplin - Cheap Thrills

            Got the Avalanche the day it came out, and picked up Seven Swans the other day by chance in a mall.

            Both by Sufjan Stevens, and both good so far.

              The last CD I got was Lou Reed's "Transformer" from YourMusic. Pretty good.

                Tom Petty's new album is out. Solid, as usual. A bit of the Dylan groove at times, but dependable, good rock music. Typical Petty album, which is good for my ears!

                Take care,

                    I just ordered the following from YourMusic.com:

                    Hank Williams: The Ultimate Collection
                    Hank Williams III: Lovesick, Broke & Driftin'

                    I'll probably be picking up AAF's "Up in the Attic" this Tuesday along with either Thom Yorke's "Eraser" or HW 3's "Straight to Hell."

                      I didn't pick up another HW3 album or Thom Yorke's solo album, just "Up in the Attic" which is better than the first, but not as good as truANT, which I thought was superb.

                      I did pick up some DVDs though: Once Upon A Time In Mexico and The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. I probably should have looked into them before I picked them up because they are both the final chapter (so to speak) in a "trilogy" and I haven't see the first 2 installments of either series. Oh well.

                        I got the Ultimate Avengers 2 DVD in the mail today from Blockbuster, I'm looking forward to watching it. The first one that you recommended was really good, I hope this one is too.

                            I just got "Flashback" (3 CD Box set) by ELO, Fleetwood Mac's "Complete Greatest Hits" and "Ultimate Alan Parson's Project."

                            I'm going to go ahead and schill for yourmusic.com. I'm loving it. It's owned by BMG/Columbia House, but unlike the other CD clubs there are no requirements other than 1 CD per month. Each single CD on the site (same catalog as Columbia House) is only $5.99, so you're basically charged $5.99 a month (you have to create a music queue where they automatically send the next CD on your list). There are no shipping charge on any CDs (and no tax that I've seen). After you buy the one, you can purchase as many as you want for the same $5.99. Double CD sets are only $11.98. 3 CD sets are $17.97, etc. There is no shipping or tax on the additional purchases either. If you're looking to fill out your collection or just get some good deals, it's nice. That Flashback CD is usually around $40 anywhere else. The only negative is that the free shipping takes about 9-10 days, which through regular mail isn't bad, and it takes a little while for them to get the latest releases.

                            If any of you decide to look into it. Let me know. I can get a referral CD out of it. lol
