How it All Began

I heard the ads on the radio over and over again. They told me to send in my video explaining why I wanted to be the backstage blogger for Bonnaroo 2009. The deadline was closing in as I had brushed it off many times, assuming I would never find the time. Being the mother of two children, I have difficulties even finding time in the evening to bathe nonetheless create a video to win a contest! But somehow, by a sweet miracle, and by listening to that annoying little voice in the back of my head, I managed to dig up 1 hour to pull something together. And it wasn't easy to come by. I had to fight off the husband, lock the kids out of my room and order pizza for dinner. With some luck and this little social networking website called Facebook, I won!! A ginormous THANKS goes out to all of my voters, followers and friends. It was a tight, heated race and my nerves were in a bundle wondering how many people would unfriend me from Facebook?! I couldn't have done it without you and a gal named Myrtle. Frankly, I think Myrtle deserves the tickets more than I do as she did all the talking. However, she seems to think I'd be a better blogger. And so the journey begins to Bonnaroo 2009. Hang onto your hats guys, it's going to be a wild ride!!! --posted by Trish

World's Worst iPod: Torn Between Two Lovers by Mary MacGregor
Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Kitty used to be a Goth--almost
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture. I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons. 1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels. 2) I used to...

World's Worst iPod: Funky Cold Medina by Tone Loc
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...

World's Worst iPod: It's a Miracle by Barry Manilow
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
