I am utterly appauled at the lack of shows I want to go to this year.

To do a "best of" or not to do a "best of" that is the question.

I could give into my lazy impulses, and write about the My Chemical Romance/Muse double headlining tour...
(Frickin Ridiculous. I want to know where the touring industry is going. First Death Cab and Franz Ferdinand, now this?)

...or I could dig into the depths of my external hard drives, and decide what was truly good about 2006.

Best show I went to in 2006:
-Arctic Monkeys/The Spinto Band - Webster Hall, March 25, 2006.
What could make a show by two of my favorite bands even better? My friend getting drafted to be a model in Italy, that's what. (how'd that pan out for you Ryder?)

Best tv show:
-3 way tie between shows that didn't really start this year:
-The Office
-Scrubs
-Arrested Development
(They'll be in my best of for the next 30 years.)
-Honorable mention: Grey's Anatomy, Psych

Best kid's movie that my brother made me learn the dances for:
-High School Musical.
(You shut up. You all shut up. Billboard #1 for like 6 weeks. I didn't contribute to that)

Best thing I baked this year:
-Coconut Macaroons dipped in chocolate
(yes. I bake. and if I got the food network, I'd cook more too. damn you cable provider)

Best "Best of" this year (there were a lot. I think I'll dub this the year of the comeback.)
-"Stop the Clocks" by Oasis.
(come on, you know me. would there be any other?)

That's five. I'll add to it tomorrow.

(Hopefully this entry will satisfy those who threaten my life.) (You know who you are) (cox)
