He's Dead, But He's Got Good Taste
I'm putting together a list of songs that should be played at my funeral, and also burned onto a CD and distributed to any mourners who might show up as a kind of really weird parting (ha) gift. It'd be cool if the CDs could be black, as well, but regular ones are fine. That way, during the service or the car ride home, people could pause from their grief to say, "Wow, this is a good CD." Possible track list includes:"Peaceful Valley," Ryan Adams and the Cardinals"Please Tell My Brother," Golden Smog"No Depression," Uncle Tupelo"Sorrow," Bad Religion"Sin Nombre," The Refreshments"Won't Be Home," Old 97's"Another Travelin' Song," Bright Eyes"Houses on the Hill," WhiskeytownOnce the list is finalized (for now), I should probably laminate it and stick it in my wallet, so that my donor information and musical preferences can be preserved, unless of course my death involves some kind of plane crash on a deserted island, in which case someone can just come back and look this up online. I can't do everything for you, now.Any additional suggestions for the CD are welcome.
