Almost Famous

So, I just finished watching the movie with the same name as the title above. It was, quite simply, excellent. It kind of makes me feel like I wasted my youth; I mean, which is cooler, going to university, or touring around with a band?

I finally saw the famous Tiny Dancer scene. The sound track for the movie is awesome; lots of Zeppelin, plus some Skynyrd, Cat Stevens, Rod Stewart, and The Who, among others. The songs in this movie are the sort of ones that made me want to take up guitar.

It seems like so many of my favourite movies have a strong musical influence, and Almost Famous has joined those ranks. The Blues Brothers, High Fidelity, and Empire Records are some other notable names in that collection.

That's it. I just thought I'd share.
