Comment:

this is a mix i just made for a friend of mine who is going to be on the road playing guitar with the goo goo dolls for about a year. pretty exciting rock star stuff. since i make fun of him for it quite a bit, he wanted to know what i was listening to these days that was so much better and this is what i came up with, having only one evening to do the whole tape. these are some of the songs that i just adore, even after having listened to them over and over - you guys know how it is, right? i think it's pretty good and i made myself a copy as well. questions, comments, criticisms and/or threats are welcome...

Perhaps you could have included the Replacements so he could hear which band the Goo Goo Dolls are ripping off! LOL. Actually this is pretty wonderful. I'm sure it will be much appreciated during those long days on the road.

I like the inspiration behind the mix. Great story, if it's true. And i adore the road-trip genre. hard to master. groove and vibe has to change with the scenery and all things that go bump on a long highway vacation. anyway, wish i knew more of the artists. porn cobb combo has gotta be pretty interesting at least. thanks.
