Last night’s edition of the The Playlist was a bit mediocre. I started off great, but felt like I started losing steam quickly. Overall, the show was a little more artsy/experimental than normal. Not much, but a little.
I ended up playing a double dose of the Gorillaz. “Rhinestone Eyes” was a great intro for the show, but a listener IMed in a request for “Feel Good Inc.” and I didn’t want to rob him of that. Oddly though, that album somehow hasn’t been ripped into either of our computer based audio systems so I had to go dig out the CD from the library. It was kind of a pain, but completely worth it.

I had a lot of fun with last night’s show, probably because my mic breaks were just me gushing over Zooey Deschanel. I got a double dose of She & Him in there, but I may have considered playing the whole thing in its entirety. It’s an awesome record. I also finally got my hands on the new Ted Leo/Pharmacists album. It’s okay, I’m not super in love with it.
The rest of the show was pretty poppy and fun. The Black Keys song was a request and I ended with a song off of Pavement’s new best of album. I’m not the biggest Pavement fan, but the album was there waiting to be played.
