I'm having a lot of fun with www.ourstage.com right now. As has become my usual these days with online shtuff, I joined ONLY because Nightmare of You asked me to do so in a MySpace bulletin. NOY has been posting one new demo on MySpace every Monday for the past few weeks, then they take it away to offer up a new one. This time, they were holding the new one hostage! The only way to listen to it was to join Our Stage. Grumble, grumble.
Anyway, I did it. But only to hear the song. Then, after a few days, I decided to look around the site some more and actually try out the Judging option. Surprisingly, I really like it! They have you listen to two songs (or portions of two songs, if you prefer) in the category of your choice, then vote for which one you like better. They they tell you who many people voted like you did. I've been doing my judging while I'm writing. And, yeah, it's fun! (In case you're curious, I'm listening to the "Indie Pop" category right now. I may move on soon.)
I know! I never update and then I do and it's like an commercial for god's sake! But I just wanted to share the love for those of you interested in music thangs who might not have heard of it yet. (Or maybe I was the last to hear of it?)

A couple of months ago, Dwayne and I were driving somewhere. Maroon 5 came up on the iPod, and Dwayne got all excited and turned it up. Less than an hour later, another Maroon 5 song came on. Again, he turned it up, this time saying, "Yesssss!" as he did so.
I was like, "Um? Since when are you all crazy for Maroon 5?"
He was confused. And embarrassed. He hadn't noticed his reaction until I pointed it out.
Now, we are still laughing about it. Everytime we hear a Maroon 5 song, or are in any way reminded of Maroon 5, one of us will say, "Yesssss! Turn it up!"
