Checking in on Old Friends

I don't know about you, but I'm always comforted when the Beastie Boys and Cake are around. Sure both bands are very different musical spectrums, but for some reason new releases by both always seem to spark something nice in my life. So far the Beastie Boys haven't necessarily lived up to the fun Hello Nasty launched, but there is time. Also mark it down on your calendar....October 5th! Come through for me McCrea! Somehow, Cake always makes me feel great. If I'm ever down or bored or uninspired, Cake is always the band that brings me out of my funk.
