New Year...Heyy oh!

So I was thinking of ways to create an audio portfolio type page for me, so I can show potential job's what I can do, while I'm still in school. And i stumbled upon my Blogger that I started last year. The one where I said I would start to blog my feelings about pop-culture etc etc.
Well I became so busy this past year with school, radio station at school and then this summer my internship i seemed to neglect it. So here we are 2011, and I want to really write about what I love: Celebs and the stupid things they do, ooh and music....what I'm loving, what I'm hating and what I think you should just completely ignore when iTunes store pops up.

I'll give you a little note on my music...I'm a BIG country music, classic rock fan. I always say my dream job would be doing a country show (and getting paid for it) with a side of Tom Petty. OMG I love Tom Petty, and a lot. I recently saw him this summer and didn't sit at all, well maybe for one or two songs off the new album not that I didn't dig them they weren't your typical sing at the top of your lungs, wave your cell phone from side to side song. Probably the best concert I've seen in a while and we were pretty damn close to the stage: I did sign up for his fan-club just to get the tickets a week in advance and threw out about 150 per ticket...which is really not THAT bad considering it was MSG and Lady Gaga tickets where we sat probably can go from 100-500 if not more.

I'm also a sucker for those damn Glee kids. I watch an episode and can't get the song out of my head they are so darn talented. I remember seeing Leah Michele in Spring Awakening 3 years ago and just getting goosebumps from her raw talent. I knew the first minute she sang "Mama Who Bore Me" as she changed on stage she was something to remember and she'd be in pop culture in a big way...if I had put my money down on that I'd have some more.


I'll leave you with a song I'm in love with right now. "Felt Good On My Lips" by Mr. Tim McGraw (He's always a good music choice) It's currently #1 on the country billboard charts and he's currently starring in "Country Strong" with Leighton Meester and of course Gwyneth Paltrow. The director came up with the idea for the movie when she was reading magazines about Britney Spears and her downward spiral she was having 4 years ago. She wrote up a script, made her way to Nashville and wah-la! A masterpiece was created.

That's it for this post tonight, stay tuned American Idol starts up very soon and there's 2 ne judges who I am VERY excited about. I just don't know if America is ready for Steven Tylers drunken honesty.
