This weekend, I upgraded all of my PCs to Windows Vista (more on that later).  As a part of the experience, I've gone completely Urge - set aside my ~20,000 track library and am only listening to Urge music for a week. So far, so good.

Saturday AM - Gym time!
Friday I discovered Urge has added new pump-up Playlists for the Gym for each genre under the category "Work It Out: [Genre]". They have Rock, Alt, Pop, Electronica, Inspirational, even Classical.  These are great cheat lists for building your own ultimate Gym mix.  I downloaded them all to my Clix (now equipped with the optional armband) and was ready to hit the gym.  Then I realized I forgot my headphones and boy, was I pissed!  Still, it made for great compilations.
Suggestion to Urge:  Let the community rate your playlists and submit our own. 

Saturday PM - BBQing
This was guys weekend - Nickie was out at a cabin with her mom's club friends and that meant Ryan and I were open to do a "Red Meat, Red Wine" kind of night with a few of the local guys in the neighborhood.  Any time you open a bottle wine hand-carried from Australia called, "The Factor" from Torbreck, you know it's going to be a good night.  We eased into it listening to Urge's "Reunion" Radio.  All classic rock like K-ROCK used to play in NYC growing up.  Here's the hack not quite worthy of Philip Torrone.  I patched the Vista PC into the Aux In on a Sonos receiver and set up a party zone- instant sync'd music in the living room, family room, and patio (courtesy my 2-zone receiver) and we were jammin.  Later I broke out the guitar and Stephen played some U2 and Jimmy Buffett.  A nice way to cap off the weekend.

I thought going all Urge would be hard, but the more I download, the easier it gets.
