Fingerpointing Friday

Looking for that Elektra review? Sorry, didn't get to see it. We got to the theatre 15 minutes before we were told the movie was to begin, but we were in fact 15 minutes late. The fella at the theatre said people were lining up for the screening as early as 2pm, so it was a packed house. From everything I've heard from friends who did make it into the screening, it seems we lucked out. They said it was pretty lame and they didn't get to see the Fantastic Four trailer either. We ended up hanging out and going to Planet Thailand in Williamsburg. Good times.

I like blogs that have theme days, so I've come up with spins of my own. First is Fingerpointing Fridays. I'll just post something from a band or bands that makes you point your finger, sing along and get you moving.

Today's tracks are a few of my all-time favorite songs from an all-time favorite band. C.R., or the Compassionate Revolution, were one of those rare bands that came along with so much to say, had so much energy and meant so much to the people that got to experience them that you always wonder what more could have come if they hadn't broken up so quickly.
