Bernstein conducting Stravinsky's Rite of Spring

concert premiere of "20 Regards sur L'enfant Jesu" (maybe not the one in the POW camp though)

Davis' second quintet (with Hancock/Shorter/Williams/Carter)

Right now ESP and Kilimanjaro are living in my CD player (along with happy 2B hardcore#2)

+ some great HHC mega parties in Europe with Scott Brown, Dougal, Brisk, Breeze and Sharkey.

what can i say, i'll always love my shitty music. that's life.

10 years ago i was kickin myself for missing nin with bowie but that's life. now the band i just left just did an album with mark plati (after i left) and i'm so jealous that i can't listen to bowie any more. even though i'm more excited about seeing brown spin on Saturday, i'm my old fav band (nails) twice in a row in a week or two so i guess i'll grow out of my crappy music phase at some point in time.

[deggy]

sorry, not that you care but i meant to say that i'm seeing nin twice next week and i'm not as excited as i would be if it were ten years ago.

Have you heard the Valery Gergiev conducted one? Probably the best recording of it available now. That final pause is just BRILLIANT!
