2000 Hits!

Alright then, so today MINDSET has achieved 2000 hits!! Brilliant!

And keeping in the spirit of my post when we accumulated 1000 hits (poor schmucks!), I am all for keeping traditions alive. So here are some of the odd google searches that have lead to our humble blog:

“andrew duoos”
“mcsweeney’s” and symphony space and “march 15″
“Winterpills Broken Arm lyrics meaning”
“avril lavigne next tour” (proud of this one, we are)
“matt wertz everything in between copies sold”
“Kelly Riley, Oasis apple apple Inc.”
“songs you listen to” “pete wentz”
“8 word song titles”
“daddy take me with you” (oh man…)
“I’ve Got 10 Friends and a Crowbar That Says You Ain’t Gonna Do free download”
“ANTHONY KIEDIS+GIRLFRIEND+MIKA+BROKE UP” (I AM SHOUTING AT GOOGLE!)
…and my favorite…
“nirvana barney rubble Halloween”

In addition to some ridiculous searches, MINDSET also got visitors from the far-reaches of the world! Including:

England, Canada, Mexico, Spain, France, Finland, Greece, Italy, India, Netherlands, Poland, Hong Kong, Sweden, and Ecuador.

So keep the posts coming!

Stream some new albums + Spoon release date

If you haven’t made the trip yet to Best Buy, you can stream a bunch of new albums over at AOL. They have the new Ted Leo, Modest Mouse, LCD Soundsystem, and Andrew Bird. For the record, I’m really digging the new LCD Soundsystem, despite my general ambivalence toward their debut.

The new Spoon album has a July 10 release date, according to the folks over at Pitchfork’s news department. I have full confidence in them to release a worthy follow-up record to Gimme Fiction.

If you’re in the NYC area this summer, Neko Case is playing Central Park Summer Stage on July 20. It might be a free event, which would be nice, thus allowing me to continue my tradition of not paying for summer concerts. For those of you with money, you can catch her at the following dates:

Sat 5/26/07 George, WA Sasquatch Music Festival
Thu 7/19/07 Pittsburg, PA Byham Theater
Sat 7/21/07 Greenfield, MA Greenfield Community College

Enjoy the streams.
