Music

Seems that the Genomic Repairman is having a music crisis. Here, I have over 120 GB of music, with very little I wish to listen to. However, I do have a few bands that I have on my iPod which I've turned to.

1. Them Crooked Vultures - A sweet mix of Queens of the Stone Age (Josh Homme), Nirvana/Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl), and Led Zeppelin (John Paul Jones). What isn't to like about this super band?

2. Queens of the Stone Age - Awesome beats, kick-butt lyrics.

3. Shinedown - Sound of Madness, awesome song.

4. Brand New - Daisy and The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me are two of the best albums of the first decade of the new millenium.

5. Beastie Boys - And if you don't like it, then hey **** you!

6. Here Come the Mummies - Most people will not have heard of this band, but if you love funk ... you'll love these guys. And they'll love you right back!

I usually turn to The Beatles or Radiohead. Lately I've been on a huge Doves kick.; 8:43 PM

Who is this joker?

Thomas Joseph
Professionally I am a bug hunter (aka microbiologist) and a gene jockey (aka molecular biologist). I started my career as a med tech, but now I'm a research scientist who studies environmental microbiology. When I'm not answering scientific questions about the roles that microbes play on climate change and/or water and soil quality, I'm an amateur astronomer and play racquetball. I'm also a sports nut, though my liking of both the NY Metropolitans (baseball) and NY Jets (football) tests my devotion to these sports on a continual basis. Fortunately, I'm also an OU alumnus (PhD, Microbiology) and we usually have a pretty good football team. Boomer Sooner!
