This week I have a great deal of spare time on my hands. Not only do I have a week off work, but Becky is also away for a week over in Ibiza. So with that in mind (or rather to occupy my mind) I hope to watch as many DVDs and listen to as much music as I can.
I've got a few films lined up that I've bought during the past couple years but have never got around to watching them. Amongst them are:
Trainspotting
JFK
Dr Strangelove
... and some film starring Mel Gibson about Jesus. I can't remember the name of that one.
In terms of music, I thought it is a great chance to listen to the CDs that never really clicked or never really had the chance to. That part of my week has got off to a good start. Already I've listened to the following albums:
The Mars Volta - Frances The Mute
James Yorkston - Moving Up Country
Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
The Allman Brothers Band - At Fillmore East
There were a couple tracks that really stood out for me on the Mars Volta album (The Widows and L'Via L'Viaquez), but the most enjoyable album yet (and I thought it would be the least) is The Allman Brothers Band one. Really enjoyable background music complete with blues solos of all sorts.
