So disconnected!

Hello all-
So my three week uber-hiatus has been rougher than rough at school. 6 hours in three weeks...i would advise against it to all of you. Anyway I just finished up a paper about Kelly Clarkson and American Idol and how it is lulling the music industry into some sort completely false sense of security as they think they can just manufacture this crap product and then distribute it for mass consumption. Of all the "idols," i respect Clarkson the most. The girl can sing, and I have yet to see her compromise her body for media attention, but still...this is not the way artists should be packaged and delivered.

anyway. so my paper is poorly written and all kinds of ugly to read, but I already know I'm going to get less than an A in that class so cheers to a GPA spiraling downward! woo!

In other news, my internet is completely and totally disconnected in my apartment. Apparently it is a widespread thing in the housing units on campus, but I have little hope that it will be coming back on anytime soon. In the meantime I shall have to do reading for my finals on Friday. After Friday, I am all yours scenesters.

Speaking of, pick up this week's Nashville Rage (well...last weeks...) if you haven't already. "41 local acts you should know" There's some good stuff there.

Keep an eye out for shows and leave some love for my stressful 48 hours. Next thing you know, it'll be summer and it'll be shows every night. gah i love summer!

I miss you all and I can't wait to get to dive back into the scene for you!

Maymester!

Hey you scenesters-
I'm taking classes at MTSU till June 2. Music as Popular Culture and Soundtrack Design *drool.* Anyway, the recommmended course load is four credit hours and I'm taking six. Needless to say, I've been a bit busy. And apparently some of my May posts disappeared into the great worldwide.entangled.web. I promise I will get back to you lovely readers when I get the chance (maybe even tonight after I finish my analytical paper of Live's 1994 Throwing Copper album. Keep rocking and if you've got some cool news, pictures, or other fun Nashville music tidbits, email me here.
