play list 11/27/2008 - Thanksgiving

whoops! i see that i never posted my play list for Thanksgiving. i guess i was distracted by making a turkey when i got home. it was a fun show because i had my brother and my niece on with me and i had them each pick music. matt picked 8 songs that had to do with using the voice as an instrument - throat singing, yodeling, singing in gibberish... and miranda picked coldplay and the jonas brothers and m.i.a.. i also played some other music that we all like. and started the show with some native american music.

i played some vampire weekend recommended to me by my friend greg in san jose. here's the video:
