Comment:

yeah, it's been a busy week. for mixtapes but especially work-wise. I have two methods of dealing with stress: get super-mellow (side A) or turn the speakers up to 11 and dance/thrash around violently in my room while passers-by poke their heads in and stare (side B). It's my friend Kate's birthday today and she's even more stressed than I am so hopefully this helps. All the songs are "old favorites"-- this is the first tape I've made her and I think she shares my idea of what's comforting -- stuff that might be depressing or agitating to some but somehow does the trick.

this is great. Also is your title on purpose? Because there's a popular Australian rock group named Something For Kate.

Ha, now that i've looked back on the jesus christ superstar mix i now see it was more than just coincidence. Excuse my ignorance *laugh*

Cool mix. I too expected to see Something for Kate on here - maybe the next mix you make her can include them.

yeah, i just found out that Kate is NOT familiar with Something for Kate, as I thought she was. This obviously needs to be remedied . . . vol. 2 coming up after the Papers from Hell are through . . .
