Music in the strangest places.

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

I have been reading Wil Wheatons blog off and on for several years. His stories and things that interest him seemed to always be not quite what I expected. I was kind of thrilled to follow some of his tweets and see that he is a a Led Zepplin fan.

Then I saw a tweet a few minutes ago that he was putting a PDF version of his latest book up for sale for $5. I told myself, “Self, you should go buy that!”. Then I did a dumb thing. I went to his blog instead of following the link in his tweet.

There, was a post about an artist named Zoƫ Keating. There was a youtube video embedded, so I hit play. I totally forgot about the tea that I had just started steeping upstairs. Like 20 minutes later I finally went upstairs and got it. I spent those 20 minutes listening to the youtube video, then reading her website and blog, then going to iTunes and ordering both of her albums.

So now, I am going to sip my tea, listen to Zoe Keating, and hopefully make it back to Sunken Treasure.

A fellow SysAdmin, jss, decided to grace me with this link via IRC as I was about to log off and go pass out for a few hours…

I never expected to hear quite that mix of music in one piece.
I do believe I am going to need to look up some more of this groups work.
