Audioscrobbler

A website that keeps track of the music you listen too... I think Audioscrobbler, or Last.fm as it called now, is a fun idea. I registered at July 3, this year. Since then, these are the 20 artists that I have listened most to (on my computer, that is).

I know, it is not very interesting to anyone but me, but I like this program very much ;-) I wonder whether the songs I listen too most say something about myself. :-)

Today I bought two second hand cd's: Hoist by Phish and The boatman's call by Nick Cave. And also the best Van Morrison record: Veedon Fleece. Furthermore, I bought a book by Henry James: The turn of the screw/The Aspern papers. I look forward to reading it, since I really liked the sad story of Daisy Miller.

Hopefully, this weekend I will have time to post something more substantial. ;-)
