The Weepies - Hideaway
I'm very much enjoying their latest album. It's funny how where you listen, can change the mood or experience. The first time I listened to it was at work, and maybe the stress and constant distraction didn't allow me to fully appreciate what I was listening to. While I thought it was pleasant, I had a feeling of boredom.
On second listen (a few weeks later) I was home and late in the evening. I remember folding my laundry and really listening this time. Long gone were the stress of my desk and workplace. Fast asleep were both Tom and Jango, as I was alone in the living room. All of a sudden the music overcame me and finally I understood.
This album is beautiful. Enjoy these samples!

Finally, here's some daytime footage: Thoughts on the Flip Mino HD? Which site would you use for uploading?
Flip HD Mino sample videos on 3 sites
I recently purchased a Flip Mino HD and have uploaded videos to Flickr, Vimeo and YouTube. The first three videos are from a recent Adele concert (who I love). I would post more to Vimeo, but I haven't upgraded to the Pro account, limiting my posts to one a week.
The Flip Mino HD did an okay job at the concert, though sadly it could't handle the heavy spotlight of Adele. I was surprised that the Audio sounded decent. Flickr:Vimeo:

Here Comes the Rain Again - cover
What a pretty cover of the Eurythmics classic! The strings really elevate the "haunting" of the song. What do you think?

The Presidents by Jonathan Coulton
Do you know all the U.S. Presidents -- in order?
Jonathan Coulton's original version is slightly edited to reflect the recent election - yay! Thought this was appropriate to post since inauguration day is just around the corner.
It's funny, I remember right before the holidays a few of us at Revision3 tried to name all the Presidents. We put the names up on the white board in the conference room, and with maybe 6 of us trying we got 70% of the names. We certainly didn't get every president in order.

This was recorded last night at the Great American Music Hall, and while it was the second take it was a good one. Enjoy!
