Living in the Past

This past week or so I've been so into old school WWF or WWE as it's now known... There's a new WWE Legends game coming out on PS3 that I'm super excited about so I guess it's rolled over into my world.

WWE just released a compilation of the best moments from "Saturday Night's Main Event". I can't tell you as child how many times I would flip through the TV guide looking to see if this show was going to be on. I remember how annoyed I felt everytime I saw "Saturday Night Live" in it's timeslot. Anyway some of my most favorite moments of the WWE happened on that show... Needless to say I've been a bit glued to the TV the last couple of nights reliving each moment on the 3 disc set.

On an unrelated note although still nostalgic; I made a 90's grunge complilation the other day. I've always wanted to make one but never got around to getting all the right tracks. Making CD's for me is like art, I put alot of effort into them ensuring that they get the right "moments". Anyway I'm really proud of what I did and I know for years to come it's going to make me smile.

The tracklisting for those who are curious...

Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Enter Sandman - Metallica
Plush - Stone Temple Pilots
Violet - Hole
Black Hole Sun - Soundgarden
Jeremy - Pearl Jam
Under The Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Don't Cry - Guns N' Roses
Two Princes - Spin Doctors
Losing My Religion- R.E.M.
What's Up - 4 Non Blondes
Runaway Train - Soul Asylum
No Rain - Blind Melon
Loser - Beck
Buddy Holly - Weezer
Basket Case - Green Day
Zombie - The Cranberries
Creep - Radiohead

These songs represent many memories of high school... from the house parties, school dances, Muchmusic Top 30 countdowns, you name it! I love how music takes you places - nothing else in the world can do that and I think it's something to be enjoyed...
