Eternal Circle


The belt is tight nowadays, when it comes to money. There's simply so many wonderful things that you wish for but can't have, fearing the risk of money spent the wrong way.

Fortunately, I was right about Bob Dylan's Bootleg Series; best ~23 dollars~I ever spent. If you're familiar with Dylan's work, you know how simple it is for him to write and compose a beautiful song, easily to be related with one way or another. And among the extense list of recordings the man has gave us since the early 60's, one tends to think that that's all there is to it - nothing else could possibly be squeezed into the hot chocolate cup anymore.

And then you find about 50 rare recordings and b-sides Dylan never included in his LP's, maybe because they didn't fit, maybe because they weren't good enough for him. But the truth is, some of that work is gorgeous work, in fact, almost all of it. These recordings express themselves almost as a form of naked music, uncovering the organs of a fabulous conceptual machine.

This one will certainly be a keeper.


And Down tickets are already kept in the precious stuff-shelf. I never thought I would actually like this kind of Metal, but it's a straight fact that I really do. The concert takes place by the end of next month, and it'll be my first metal concert. And with great company.


I'm also updating my song covers list, already have a lot more and there's a few still on the list right now. What started as curiosity a few months ago may now be one of my obsessions.
