I'm Visiting Graceland Today

I've never been to Graceland before as I'm not a massive Elvis fan. I certainly appreciate and respect all his contributions to rock music but I'm not one of those who go to Graceland each year or own a ton of Elvis collectibles. Still, I'm excited to continue my rock n' roll New Year's vacation with a stop at Elvis' mansion. This trip has been a whirlwind for sure and I'll give you a full report when I get home next week. With any luck, I'll find a Glam souvenir to add to my collection.

For now, some vids of Elvis playing a New Year's Eve concert back in 1976.

The rest of the concert is on YouTube. It has five parts. Some of the comments below each clip are quite interesting.

Happy New Year - Recommend New Music

Happy 2010 everyone! Here's hoping this year sucks less than 2009. Last year I asked you to recommend me some new music and you all really stepped up to the plate. Well, I'm asking again - tell me some bands/albums I should buy right now. Quite frankly, I'm sick of listening to the same old thing and I'm looking for something new. Recommend whatever you like - doesn't have to be Glam. I'm looking for the heavy, the pop, the fabulous. Ready, set, go!
