Radio Indigo plays Nickelback fairly often these days – notably, Rockstar and Gotta be Somebody. This inspired me to get hold of some of their music, and that forms the bulk of my playlist these days.

I need to go get the car stereo fixed. The CD player is broken, complains of errors in any CD that I care to shove into its mouth. It’s been this way for some time now. It hasn’t hurt me much, thanks to the radio being permanently tuned to either Radio Indigo or Amritavarshini. However, there are traffic-jammed days when I find myself wishing for some soothing Led Zep when all the radio has to offer is Lady Gag-ga or some such. Then again, in these times of economic recession, one finds oneself thinking twice or more about every small expense. My list of things that I should buy (sometime before I die) has now attained mammoth proportions, and is growing at an alarming rate. Thanks to someone’s generosity, one item (actually two) has been struck off the list – I am now the proud possessor of the complete Trionfi tryptych. Ha!

I’ve just begun listening to Catulli Carmina, with a translation of the lyrics at hand – it’s been good going so far.

More later. Soon.
