well, friday i'm going to see rufus wainwright in montreal.

i saw him for the poses tour and he was fantastic. of course the crowd was all made up of gay guys and young girls but who cares. lol. his fans love him. and he had a great time. he's playing two shows in montreal - thursday and friday. i got the tickets for friday because i'm assuming that'll be the party/homecoming show. i'll get my star-gazing sunglasses ready.

oh, last time (feb 2002?) i was able to get the setlist. oh no, strike that, rufus' setlist :) from his piano. i'm gonna try to repeat that feat tomorrow night.

anyway.

i managed to devise an evil plan where the roommate will let us swing by cd esoterik before going to the show (when in montreal...). so i made up a list of albums i wanna get. not all of these are absolutes but i should be taking home about 5 albums (probably more like 6 :) from this list.

and i need your help and advice.

i'm looking for thought or comments on these titles, or any other suggestions you may have.
as for death cab and do make say think -- which album would you get first for each artist?

thank you very much.

the list:

#1 / the almost absolutes.

death cab for cutie - we have the facts and we're voting yes / the photo album / transatlanticism
spiritualized - ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space
bonnie 'prince' billy - i see a darkness / master and everyone
do make say think - goodbye enemy airship the landlord is dead / winter hymn country hymn secret hymn

#2 / the 'if i can't find enough from the almost absolutes list'.

explosions in the sky - earth is not a cold dead place
wire - send
britta philips and dean wareham - l'avventura
