west coast travels...

I'm blogging from the west coast these days, as I am visiting family over the holidays here (I even saw the Hollywood sign from the plane). Thought I would mention two music artists to check out (I listened to them on the plane ride). The Hold Steady have a great album called Boys and Girls in America, and Muse has come out with Black Holes and Revelations. Both are pop influence indie rock artists.

Hollywood?! Wow! Be careful out there in the land of the free and the home of the degenerate! :)

It continues to weird me out that there is another Jason from Beaver Falls that posts on all of the 'blogs I post on.

Anywho, I think the Hold Steady album is the best one of '06. It's one of those albums that should be listened to closely to examine the lyrics, but can be cranked up because it's full of Springsteenish chord bashing.

Love Muse. His voice is phenomonal.
