An Earlier Autumn

It's that time of year again: the weather has dynamics; wigs and capes are for sale at Value Village; and watchable films are playing at the cineplexes again. Autumn has arrived slightly ahead of schedule so we threw together some seasonal selections on How to Bowl this week. Stay tuned for more fall tunes and remember: there's no "I" in Rock'n (it's an apostrophe). Here's the setlist:

  1. Kim Addonizio // Night of the Living, Night of the Dead
    2. (Thanks, Josh!)
  2. Patrick Lane // "Zombie Life"
  3. Joel // Disease
  4. Beat Happening // Zombie Limbo Time
  5. The Zombies // Conversation Off Floral Street
  6. Velvet Fogg // Within the Night
  7. United States Air Force // Contemporary/Easy Listening
  8. The Baroque Bouquet // Remembrance of a Country Garden
  9. Trio Derome Guilbeault Tanquay // Michka
  10. The Field Mice // An Earlier Autumn
  11. The Varsity Singers and Players // Ten Little Indians
  12. Guided By Voices // Sleepover Jack
  13. The Lovin' Kind // I'm Free
  14. Rock'n // Apostrophe (Lightning Bolt Pictogram)
  15. Whyte Rawk // Fuck Face
  16. The Jury // Who Dat?

Episodic

Well, I've been back from my vacation for a while now but I'm still just catching up. Two weeks of classes already behind me? Sorry, I didn't notice. You'll see that I finally posted some vacation pictures below (there's way more on Ambo) and I've started playing around with Flickr for photoblogging. Try clicking the Poker Nite picture to check out Flickr's nifty notes feature. Been playing around with Audioscrobbler, del.icio.us and lots of other techy things lately. I'll explain why in a future post.
