# 29 the beta band ''music''

This is a best of 2xcd the first cd is a true best of I has tracks from the formation of the band to there last releas. The band got big here in the states due to the film high fedility staring John Cusack and Jack Black. It centers around Cusacks cahracter Rob who is the owner of a record store trying to take stock of his love life. And Berry played by Blak as one of his employes there is a sceen in the film where the store is packed with people and Rob leans into one of the employes and says '' Im going to sell 3 copys of the 3 eps by the beta band'' and he plays 'dry the rain'. thats how I discoverd the band I ran out and got the sound track JUST for that song alone. I was in love with it I ran out and bought every cd they released. So expect to see alot more pos on them as this blog rools on. As I was saying cd 1 is a true best of with songs like 'dry the rain', 'smile' 'squares' 'wonderful' and my and my sons personal favorit 'assassment' for some reason he calles it the man song, i dont know why hes an odd little nerd. The second cd is a live, recorded over two night on there farewell concert set in England. I wish I was able to go to that. This is one band I never got to see live and always wanted to. They opend for Radio head but I hate radio head and I dident want to drive to DC and pay out the ass just to see the opening act. Im an idiot for not doing so. OH well live and learn.
