What *does* Sam listen to?

[asimplechord]

I'm making a Sam Winchester playlist. I've got my own ideas (augmented by Jared Padalecki's comments and others') about what should go on it. But I'm open to suggestions.

(So far: the Shins, Matchbox Twenty, Radiohead, REM, Goo Goo Dolls, The Decemberists, Beck, Bright Eyes)

What songs do you think would be on the Top 25 Most Played list of Sam's iTunes?

And while I'm talking about music...

nessime_lisen, you might be the only person here to appreciate this. Last night on my way home, the DJ at TheBuzz played some MCR (Helena, pretty much the only thing that gets airplay other than Welcome to the Black Parade, even on the "alternative rock" radio station), and when it ended, he casually mentioned rumors that MCR were planning a couple of shows in Houston and Dallas.

What? WHAT?

There's nothing about this on myspace, nothing on their website. Nothing on any of the venue websites, ticket sites, anything.

Details, man. I NEED them like a burning thing.



Oh, and you know what I just realized? The Angels and Airwaves show on Sunday night is at the same time as the Superbowl. That means MrIris won't be using his ticket.

Anybody want it? I am not staying in to watch football (that can be recorded) when there's music to be heard.

I might... be forced to hate you. Like burning. *EPIC FLAIL*

OOOH, I HOPE YOU CAN GO. WOW.

*crosses her fingers for a Seattle/Portland date*

I'd invite you along. Concerts are way more fun w/ someone else who's a fan. :)

It's just rumor for now. And the DJ was saying something about it being in support of their DVD, which I was under the impression was already in post-production in order to be released sometime this year. Dunno. Maybe it's another hoax like the dates in London that someone hacked onto their website last week.

OMG, if I hadn't been, you know, driving there would have been MASSIVE FLAIL happening. As it was I got home and flailed at A, who was like, "Whatever. Does this mean you want me to take you if you get tickets?"

An article in NME (scan) said that the DVD should be out in March (!!!) and a new CD by the end of the year (!!!!!).

Silly, A. *shakes head*

I saw that and did a huge double take, because Gerard said in a radio interview around xmas/nye that they were taking time off, so I was expecting the DVD but not the new CD. (I'm totally listening to that interview again right now to see if I misheard.)

He likes small venues and local bands, but isn't really into big shows.

I would be pretty content if it was just the DVD. But new CD would make my life complete. Heh.

'kay. In his interview with a Hawaiian radio station, when asked about getting back into the studio, Gerard Way responded with, "Probably not until 2009. I wouldn't expect a record from us."

"Is that the record company, or...?"

"No. That's us. I'm sure they want a record sooner. WE just need to step away for a minute and reevaluate what we want to do with the band as far as music...[.]"

"You're talking about taking a break."

"Yeah, completely. Totally."

Interesting. I shall be content with the DVD and hope for the CD, then. :)

They are TOYING WITH US, giving us news like that!

They really are. It's not kind.
