Road Trip Mix

A couple of people (including GFP's own Lise) are going on road trips soon, so I thought I would make a little road trip mix. I have about 8 driving mixes that I've made in the past few years, despite the fact that I drive about 4 times a year. I find that music really improves the experience though while driving. Here are some songs that are fun to drive to and that will keep you energized when you're on the road for a while.

12345678 [mp3] - The Hard Lessons - B&G Sides (iTunes)
I Feel It All [mp3] - Feist - The Reminder (iTunes)
Tell Me How You Want It [mp3] - Julius C - Julius C Says (iTunes)
Lego [mp3] - The Maccabees - Colour It In (iTunes)
Cowbell [mp3] - Tapes 'n Tapes - The Loon (iTunes)
The Legend of the Last of the Outlaw Truckers AKA The Ballad of Sheriff Shorty [mp3] - The Dandy Warhols - Earth to the Dandy Warhols (iTunes)
Hey [mp3] - Elvis Perkins in Dearland - Elvis Perkins in Dearland (iTunes)
The Sweat Descends [mp3] - Les Savy Fav - Inches (iTunes)
You Don't Love Me [mp3] - The Kooks - Inside In / Inside Out (iTunes)
Golden Star [mp3] - My Brightest Diamond - Bring Me the Workhorse (iTunes)

And if you happen to be driving through the mountains, I randomly discovered that just about anything by Frontier Ruckus is really perfect for that while I was in Utah.

Tim Harrington (Les Savy Fav) is Beardo

Ok, so I am kind of in love with this little pitchfork channel starring the slightly outrageous Tim Harrington from Les Savy Fav. It's called Beardo, and it's (mostly) freaking hilarious. My favorite episode is actually "Ghost Writer," because I have a really dark sense of humor... But I posted the most recent episode because it's a song, because it is appropriate for this time of year, and because it has lots of cool guest stars.

Dance Party - 8.3.07

This weekend is going to be crazy for me, so I'm going to inform you right now, I'm not updating again until Monday (not that as many people read this over the weekend anyway). My apologies.
