Music and Concerts
Lately a big source of new bands has been the Magical Tony, though only about half of the 150 musicians that rock that he's written about I myself like. I've been in a big CD buying mood though lately and have been pretty willing to give anything a try.

So far my favorite bands/albums of the year have been:
Ratatat (really really good instrumental band)

Rilo Kiley (Tony reccomended girly rock in the vein of Ani Difranco but better)

The New Modest Mouse CD (MTV and radio play but thats OK)

Blonde Redhead (Synth-heavy female fronted band)

There's more, but these are a good few to pick out because I have or will be seeing all of the m in concert in the next couple of months. Rilo Kiley play on the same weekend in Portland Friday and Sunday respectively. Ratatat plays at the beginning of October in Portland and my town Eugene so I'm going to see them 2X. Blonde redhead plays sometime in November but I don't have tickets just yet. The Mouse I saw just after the album came out and it was a little disappointing, mostly because the crowd was so much bigger than when I saw them in Toronto and Philadelphia. They are from the NW though and actually live in Portland so its not really that unexpected. Still crowdriders threw me off and I just wanted to watch and listen up close w/o having to get sweated on.
