Harry Potter

As Art blogged about earlier we went to the Putnam Museum to see Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in Imax. I have to admit I enjoyed it. It has probably been 10-15 years since I have seen a movie in Imax. If you get the chance it is a fun experience.

Richard Marx

So I was browsing the entertainment news on reuters and found that this artist is releasing a new album on Tuesday. I loved his music years ago. I still like him today. Call me crazy or whatever you want but this guy can sing and he is nice to look at too. I listened to one track off his new cd and it is pretty good. Sounds just like he did 17 years ago when I first discovered his music. I know that Art will think that I am bonkers for liking the same music that I did 17 years ago but a lot of my favorite music is Country, Classic Rock or 80's music. I know that people my age will probably laugh but hey when you like someones music you talk about it.



Today Art and I watched Lost In Translation. It is a fairly interesting movie. I was surprised by it. It was written and directed by Sofia Coppola. I think that it was up for some awards this year too.

COUNTRY MUSIC

Art and I went to breakfast this morning at the Iowa Machine Shed. Breakfast was good. After breakfast we went to Borders so I could buy the new Jimmy Buffett Cd. Even art liked one of the songs on the cd it was titled Simply Complicated. I had blogged about Buffett not that long ago just after his new album was released. I like it pretty good. I noticed on the label it had mailboat records as the label. I was surprised to see that it is a fairly new label but what surprised me was the artists listed on mailboat records. I was surprised to see Brett Michaels formerly of Poison as an artist on the label. If you are a Parrothead I suggest you try out License to Chill. It is a good cd but then again I like country music too.



After returning home from Borders I had the tv on while Art was mowing the lawn. I was watching vh1country and saw a video for a band called the Notorious Cherry Bombs. The song that was playing is called its hard to kiss the lips at night that chew your ass out all day long. I have been a fan of this country artist that is a member of this band. I was laughing my ass off during the song. Also if your a country fan of vince gill check out the notorious cherry bombs for fun. I have not heard all the songs but the one I heard today is pretty funny. I will check the album out for myself and let people know if it is a good cd other than the one song. I just had to blog about the title of the song because it was so funny.
