Michael Giacchino's Cloverfield Score
I mentioned Michael Giacchino's Zocalo presentation before, and now they've released his most excellently over-the-top score for my A-1 monster movie of the year, Cloverfield. Complete with amazing operatic vocals, pulsing drumbeats, and an incredible lack of subtlety, this track is a must-own for any fan of theatrical music. Simply, undeniably, the best closing credits music I have heard in a long, long time.

Ticket Master
Why I hate Ticketmaster:
Thousands of people logging on at the same time to buy tickets has never been an easy task for anyone to handle, but this site - supposedly the king of all ticket sale websites - destroys all hope for anyone trying to get the tickets they desire. As I try buying tickets for two separate days the wait limit goes from 5 minutes to 2 minutes back to 5 minutes and then sits at 3 minutes for 2 minutes, only to to find that I've been booted because I have the same purchase open in separate browser windows FOR DIFFERENT DAYS.
This is why I hate ticketmaster.
Luckily, I was able to get tickets over the phone, so at least that somewhat antiquated system works...
