I am a firm believer that everyone needs to make playlists as often as possible and for every occasion. Playlists make the world go round. The key, however, is to constantly change and update your playlists. It will keep your life from becoming too redundant. It will also help you to remember your life, one playlist at a time.
I may or may not smoke too much weed, so my memory may or may not be shot to hell, but, I use music to help me access the memories that I need to function.
My current playlist revolves around summer 2010 and I need your help to make it grow.

Ever wonder how this random Polaroid of former model Ann Kirsten Kennis wound up being the cover of Vampire Weekend‘s album Contra? Well, apparently so does Kennis.

The result? Kenner is suing the band and their label for $2 million.

Next stop on KROQ’s Road Trip USA is the super fine city of Seattle. Listen to win tix to see Alice in Chains & Deftones at the Gibson Amp October 12th and you might be heading up to the great northwest.
Today I thought I’d rock it with one of Seattle’s greatest, Nirvana.

We just got a call from the boys in Linkin Park and they offered us this super sick deal. They asked us if we wanted to give away a few copies of their new CD A Thousand Suns and the opportunity to play Medal Of Honor: Tier 1, against the band, months before the game hits stores. (LP’s music is featured in the game.)
Of course we’d be idiots not to accept.
Apparently the band must think they’re pretty good gamers cause they’re calling out you KROQ listeners.
Check it… A Thousand Suns hits stores September 14th while Medal Of Hon0r: Tier 1 doesn’t hit till October 12th! Entering to win this is a total no-brainer for any LP fan. Click more for for the link to enter!
