We reached 500 Posts Bitches!

That’s right, number 500! It’s really only 500 by number as I lost count awhile ago because I actually don’t know when I started this blog. Allan’s World of Music is a horrendous blog name especially with multiple writers but hey I guess I never thought much of a music blog when starting it.

But just like terrible band names, a blog is only as good as it’s content and thankfully a lot of people decided to stick around :) .

So what do you want to know about the blog now? Let’s take a nostalgic look.

Our most popular post, thanks to google is the Harold & Kumar 2 Playlist and Review. People ask once a week it seems on what song is playing at this certain point of the movie. Other people have really stepped up and helped one another. I was useless.

The first mp3 I got in trouble for was not understand the release date for The Raveonette’s Lust Lust Lust. The track in question was Black Satin by The Raveonettes.

The first mp3 that was put on the Hype Machine was The Pipette’s Sex when I reviewed their album.

The first blog post on Elbo.ws was on the wonderful Emmy The Great, My Party is Better Than Yours is an awesome song. Sadly we’re still waiting on her debut album.

My Party Is Better Then Yours by Emmy The Great

My first “Q&A” is with the now broken up Siberian. It was crappy but I think my “interview” skills are better even though I’m still lazy.

I first offended someone was with my Black Kids review (the other time I offended someone was saying that MGMT likes it up the bum…). No, I didn’t say anything racist! It was calling Myspace’s download system “retarded” as they would alter the mp3 files and the tags. Making it soooo annoying. If this person is still offended, go see Tropic Thunder.

I’m Making Eyes At You by The Black Kids

I am quite hated on this blog. Some of the comments I’ve received:
“You Minger” on Why I Won’t Like MGMT
“Learn To Write”, “your attitude towards music is very wrong, you should stop writing”, “You give blogging a bad name.” and a funny fake WebSheriff comment: “CEASE & DESIST:

For heinous and multiple crimes against the English language, please close this blog immediately. You have 48 hours to comply.

And more on Mystery Jets – Twenty One Review. Apparently I pissed off a lot of people accusing the MJs of stealing. I will admit I wasn’t so nice in my own comments as I’m not a professional and I’m not afraid to tell someone off. Just try me ;) .

And hopefully the next 500 posts is just as interesting it was for you the readers as it was for me! Hopefully I didn’t bore you.
