Found this song via Last.fm. The guy reminds me a lot of a cleaner, though perhaps no less dark, Stephen Lynch.

Throwing Toasters is a “band” consisting of Grant Baciocco. He has a whopping eleven albums available for download for the low, low price of… whatever you think they’re worth. Here’s a quote from his page on pricing:

PRICING SUGGESTIONS

• FREE! – Our gift to your ears!
• SELF DETERMINED PRICING – $4.99? $15.00? $1,000,000? Whatever you think it’s worth!
• MARKET RATE – $4.99 for an Bootleg or EP, $9.99 for a full length album.

How cool is that?

This is a sweet and hilarious song I first heard on a rerun of King of Queens.

Marilyn Rucker is a singer-songwriter from Austin, TX. She has three albums available on CD Baby. All of her songs can be purchased singly as well, and I Love Your Smell is on her album Teapot Lady.

So welcome to Asmor’s Geek Blog, and I hope you enjoyed MC Frontalot’s entirely-too-appropriate song, I Hate Your Blog.

Consider this a bit of a teaser. I’m going to be moving this month, and rather than trying to launch the new blog in the middle of all that I’m writing posts as I get the time to build up a queue. My first “real” post is scheduled for May 17th, and from then on I’m aiming for three “major” posts a week, Monday/Wednesday/Friday.

Mondays and Wednesdays will be either reviews or editorial-style opinion pieces on geeky topics. Every Friday will be Music Friday, where I’ll post a song I think you’ll all enjoy and try to give out some loving to talented independent artists.

Anyways, go ahead and sign up for the RSS if you’re interested. What’s one more feed, right? Google Reader does all the hard work for you…

So in parting, see you all May 17th!
