Oh trust me, I know all about the thirties kicking my butt right now... I am happy with my life now though, very happy, just acutely aware I'm not the blindly youthful and idealistic 20 something I was once...

I can't bear to listen to fatboy slim or the chem. bros anymore, but me getting into them has ramifications for my current taste in music as well.... without those big mainstream acts I might not have discovered Boards of Canada and the like, and my musical taste might have been all the poorer for it...
