It appears this post was stuck in draft version purgatory for the past 10 months. It's almost time to start compiling my 2009 list - so take a walk down memory lane all the way back to 2008...
We're counting 'em down and we won't stop til we get to the top!
Here is my top 10 list for 2008 - I decided to do one list combining events, singles, CD's ,downloads and trends. It's all the stuff I enjoyed the most.
10. Girl Talk - Feed the Animals reinvented what an album can be.
9. Virgin Mobile Festival was again the best 2 days of the summer, even better thios year with cousin/nephew Sam,
8. She and Him
was a ray of sunshine and a warm breeze after weeks of rain.
7. My iPhone is my favorite piece of technology ever.
6. The Hold Steady - For letting me fall in love with a smart band again.
5. Blitzen Trapper - Furr Single of the year.
4. Twitter - Everyone laughed at me... who's laughing now. @cpeterc
3. The Baltimore Ravens - A rookie coach and rookie QB and they make the playoffs and then win 2 playoff games. Purple pride.
2. Podcasts - Really got excited about them this year. Favorites include You Look Nice Today, This Week in Tech, Adam Carolla podcast, Sound Opinions, This American Life, The meditation podcast - there's something for everyone and they are there when you want them. Traditional radio must evolve to compete. Will they?
1. Chelsea's Sweet 16 was the party of the summer and the joy of a lifetime.
