He's Like A Detuned Radio

That last posting sucked. While it did have a point, it was deluded and pretty badly written. Pretty much like everything I write.

The dinner is going to be sweet though.

So the music at the Phoenix blew last week. Maybe it was a one-off thing, it'll be better tonight. I'll sit at home, crank up the Edge and relax. No, it sucked again. So after years of talking about it, I made a solid 5-hour Edge club music playlist. By my count, they played 74 songs in 5 hours. 34 of which were crap. So they were pulled. Replaced with Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins, Beck, Radiohead to form a "retro" set. Then some Canadian retro, OLP, MGB, IME.

Still kept some of the favourites like Basement Jaxx and Groove Armada. And of course, ended the set with some Clint Eastwood.

This is what was pulled and what it was replaced with:

No, I don't have a life in this city. Can you tell?
