In The Beginning...


Nope, this won't be some prophetic post about anything, it's just the title of the Nic Sarno song that Trax Records emailed to me, I'm guessing to be reviewed.

I rarely do music reviews anymore (at least of exclusive music), so whenever a track is personally sent to me, I feel obligated to write it up.

This track could be better.  It's a remake of the classic house cut.  Once Sarno finally gets to the beat, and you are able to hear it over the maybe overwhelming vocals, its a good beat.  The beat should definitely be the hero of the song and not the loud vocals.  Maybe that's just me though, I've never been a fan of non-musical vocals over house tracks.  Download it and check it out for yourself, and let me know what you think.

Resolutions, Schmesolutions


It's been a minute, I know, who cares though.

I know I'm late, but Happy New Year!!! Whoo!!! (drunk white girl voice).

I'm not one for making new year's resolutions, but I do have things I'm looking forward to in this fresh 2012.  Here's a quick list of the top 5 things yours' truly is anticipating this year.

5. Weddings

I am, and I'm not.  Weddings are always a good time, but just cost mad loot...at least when you have 5 to attend this year.  I'm standing up in one at the end of the month (shout out to Kevin & Liz), which is a cool honor to me because I have never been asked to stand up in one before ('preciate that dawg!).  Then again, married men in my small circle is a small minority (redundant? who cares?). 

The cool part is that I have 5 extra excuses to get crunk and disorderly this year...bonus!  I look forward to all of them, and promise to avoid all videographers.

4. WrestleMania 28

Call me a geek all you want to, but fuck Mayweather and Pacquiao, the Rock versus Cena is where its at.  Despite the recent Disney productions, the Rock is one of the smoothest cats of all time, and I can't wait to hear "If you smelllllelelellleeellelelelellllllaaaaahhh!  What the Rock is cookin'!"  Nothing better.


3. Income Tax Return

Bitch, I'm broke...next topic.




 2. March Madness
After rough Chicago-land winters, nothing says the spring has arrived more than college basketball starting at 11 AM on a Thursday and going until 11 at night.  12 seeds beating a 5, buzzer beaters, 1 seeds going down in the second round...best playoff in all of sports, and I can't wait.

1. New Job

I would post the company logo, but I don't know if they want to sponsor my nonsense.  After working in the restaurant world since the tender age of 15, this is a long awaited change.  First ever sit down job!  What!?!?!  Benefits and no sidework or rolling silverware....CAN'T WAIT!
