the handsome family - all the time in airports
this show was done on thursday, june 8, i just got around to posting it today. this marks my return to the airwaves after some time off. no particular theme today just some new music. for someone that dislikes flying i find it funny that i like songs about flying and airports so much such as this new handsome family tune. some other favorites are air traffic control by jets to brazil, window seat by john wesley harding and movie script ending by death cab for cutie. well that last one technically isn't about airports but the lovely video takes place in an airport and perpetually runs through my head when i have the unfortunate need to fly.

* i've read about this band and a few folks whose opinion i value that have gone nuts over this band. i hate this word but i think the best way to describe my reaction is "nonplussed." perhaps i'm unimpressed because i'm possibly the only heavy metal fan in the world that despises led zeppelin and this band certainly worships at the alter of plant and page. if i want to hear "misty mountain hop" i'll listen to classic rock radio for about 10 minutes rather than this rehash.
