Drive-By Post Before I Vanish To Do Laundry
Someone online mentioned a Beauty & The Beast Castle that I need to go see while I'm in France. Is this ringing anyone's bells?
Also...
Also, I went to Giverny today, which is where Monet painted and it was utterly gorgeous and so, so peaceful, I just wanted to stay there listening to music and looking at the flowers, in this lovely, hazy misty morning, with a truly lovely dove-gray sky and the birds chirping.
What was less fun was that while I was walking to Monet's house I had my head turned and walked straight into the lamp post that was for some unfathomable reason in the middle of the sidewalk. Seriously, it was a total slap-stick moment; I expected to see Charlie Chaplan hanging around. Almost as painful as it was embarrassing.
Also...
-What does Gojyo's shampoo smell like? I assume, with his hair, he probably using something fairly quality, but I can't think of what. I'm tempted to go with Tea Tree Oil Shampoo, which smells minty and green and tingles pleasantly, but since that's what I use, I'm not sure it's allowed.

pzb, my mother, possibly renegadekitsuneand I had a conversation about the ikkou's musical taste, which is notable for the way every single person said immediately, 'Gojyo listens to rock.' Which is kind of a gimme, but still, aren't we sympathico? So my question is, what are the ikkou's musical guilty pleasures? What is the music that Gojyo plays that Hakkai actually likes? For Gojyo himself, I think he wouldn't admit to liking Ray Lamontagne, but would because that artist has this wonderful sense of romance combined with the doubt that love even exists. (Go listen to "Jolene" - it's gorgeous and totally on my 'Forget Me Not' playlist, and only smillaraaqis going to know what that means.)

I just downloaded your fanmix, and can't wait to give it a listen.
Native son in Welsh... that sounds really interesting.
And I'd love to see a gen fanmix for the ikkou - that's what mine will be, with a couple shipper songs thrown in, but I'm curious what your Sanzo and Goku songs are.

The gen piece in my mind so far is going to have a lot more of the upbeat folk-rocky stuff that wasn't fitting quite so well for the sound I ended up going for on this mix. And I'll probably steal a title from the Oysters because while "Gone West" doesn't quite fit so well as I'd like lyrically, the title's too good not to steal. :)
And if you don't mind really random music selections, I'm digging out my Avatar fanmixes to repost for lillypuff, and I know the Welsh track by itself is on there. (It was one of those hidden end-of-CD bonus tracks so I'd had to play around with audio editors to snag it by itself).
