Finished up The dB's on my morning walk and moved on to Outkast. I don't have a lot of their stuff in my music library but I am checking out their first album right now on Spotify. Pretty cool. I remember reading somewhere that the group cited Kraftwerk as an influence. I was intrigued but for some reason never really checked them out until "Hey Ya!" became the biggest song in the world. When I first heard the song I told a friend, a big hip-hop fan, that I thought "Hey Ya!" sounded like a Cheap Trick song. I later read that The Ramones where the influence on that song. I wasn't far off.
I've got the Pixies Doolittle queued for the bike this afternoon. I have seven straight days of exercise in and will be ahead of my goal. I think I've earned my rest day tomorrow. First, though, I have to a get my quarterly haircut. I hate getting my haircut these days because it seems like every time I go there is more and more gray hair on the floor.
So now I'm depressed. Luckily, I have a good cure for the blues.
