I have mentioned the website Pandora before, but it is worth mentioning again. It is a website that suggests music based on the style of a song or artist of your choice. Each artist you choose creates a "station" that will play music with similar qualities. I am not sure how it all works, but it is one of the best websites I have ever seen (thank you Daniel by way of Catha).
Anyway, I have recently added a sidebar to my blog that will show the songs I add to my favorites list from Pandora.
So I will be featuring a different station each week. This week, I have been listening to my "The New Amsterdams" station. This means that all of the songs that appear on my favorites list have musical qualities similar to the band The New Amsterdams.
There will likely be repeat stations if I continue this, but I will try to do a different one each week.
Enjoy...

When I typed in "Ben Folds" into Pandora, I enjoyed my Ben Folds tunes and those tunes that are similar to Ben Folds, and then something weird happened. I'm at my desk at work, and I'm listening to Barry Manilow. Not cool.
Yeah... it is not an exact science. Or is it? Does Barry have talent we were unaware of? Of does Ben Folds Five really belong in a Vegas lounge act? Hmmmmm....
I'm also upset that you can't choose a Dave Barnes station.
You can choose Matt Wertz, but not Dave.
Don't bash Barry. The guy has chops. I am a huge Pandora fan. My favorite is when I listen to Matt Nathanson radio. Inevitably, Hanson always makes an appearance. That's sexy.
Travis is great. PT
Indeed, PT... indeed.
