Yes, my inner teenage girl has been very active lately. As if it wasn’t bad enough that I saw Twilight twice, I recently bought the soundtrack. Now, I have stated before I love soundtracks, especially a well put together one. The Twilight Soundtrack is very decent. It has great tracks from Muse and [...]

Atlantic making money off of Digital Sales!
http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/26/digital-sales-overtake-cds-at-atlantic-records-music-pie-in-gen/
Read this short little article this morning. It was like a ray of hope shining down on me. Maybe there is hope for me and the music industry! Maybe I didn’t waste all that money on a music business degree after all!

Starting this off with an open letter to Pete Wentz
Dear Pete,
Thank you for knocking up Ashlee Simpson. Now that your baby is born, her free time will hopefully be so scarce that she will have no time to produce anymore horrible, off key music ever again.

My Undying Love of Soundtracks
In high school, we’re all searching for what we want to do with our lives. College is the next logical step for most, so we have 4 years of prep time to decide what we are going to spend thousands of dollars to learn about for another 4+ years before taking all that knowledge [...]
