i forgot to mention yesterday's posting was number seventy. i didn't really think that i would get this far. i'm glad that some people are actually checking the site out and seeing my pictures. thank you.
this was from a set of pictures that i took at midnight a couple of summers back. this is just outside my house and i love the lights from the car passing by. i tried to post it earlier but dust prevented it from being seen by anybody.

so reading this book has made me think about what music means to me and more importantly my favorite albums. so for the next five entries i will count down my favorites and a little story about them.

number five.

weezer - pinkerton.

i don't really remember when i first heard this album but i was totally not into weezer. back in high school when they became really popular i hated them and never really gave them a chance. back then i was listening to sebadoh and eric's trip and thought that i was hardcore, and weezer was so not hardcore enough for me. i read a interview with someone and they were talking about weezer and how they were convinced that they were a band made up by the record label targeting the 'grunge' teen market. so that stuck in my head along with my general distaste for the people who liked them until people i knew started asking me if i heard this new weezer album. i was like 'no, i hate weezer, they suck, why would i like the new album'. but the response i always got was that this one was different. well, this happened alot. person after person said that i should check it out cause it was really good. and these were people who shared my long held view of weezer.
finally i did hear it. i was not totally convinced that it was so hot. but i heard it again and then heard again and suddenly i could get it out of my head. every song was better than the next. it was sounding better and better every time that i heard it and i heard it alot, playing it for the next six months. it is honest, real and emotional.
you can listen to some tracks here at allmusic.

i'm sorry about my grammar and spelling. english was never my strong suit, so forgive me please.
