Let me just die now
I am a happy man today... my request got filled on Tinymixtapes.com. The concept is simple really. You send a request in for a mix tape and the subject can be on just about anything ie "I just broke up with my girlfriend and I need music to let me know it's going to be ok" or "I'm having a mid-life crisis and I want to just leave the country" and what they do is make a mix tape based on your situation. Sometimes the titles of the song relate sometimes is the it's the content of the song itself. Well anyways i've submitted about a hundred requests for just about everything until yesterday when my request got filled. You see one day my brain went into overdrive for about 4 seconds and I thought of this wonderful idea called, "Take a mix tape, leave a mix tape" based upon the 7-11 "take a penny, leave a penny" tray. Thing is you have this at a bunch of record shops around town and it would be a great way for people to listen to music for free, experience something new, and participate in something weird and exciting. So I asked tiny mix tapes to make a mix tape of what they thought should be on the first mix tape so that it would just completely floor whoever listened to it. And they responded!!!!!! Now i'm going to literally pee my pants while I make these tapes. Now begs the question what would you put as the inaugural mix? Well i'm going to put up one of the songs that they recommended. Elliot Smith's "Wouldn't mama be proud". Enjoy.
P.S. Going to Salem for the weekend to watch my sister graduamanate from da' HIGH skool.
