As we wind up 2010, let me recap on the obsessions that have kept me coming back to the blog. In looking over the past 12 months, I'll highlight the top seven obsessions that have swallowed up all my free time this past year. I'll also take a look at what obsessions might be cropping up for 2010.

Our friends at RockGamer got this one up there. One of my all time fave’s 311, f’n up in the studio to none other than Guitar Hero World Tour. Producer Bob Rock gives some lessons, “BLUE-BLUE-GREEN-RED-BLUE-BLUE-GREEN…” We are then treated to a new track from the upcoming album, Uplifter. Check it… If this is a [...]
