Dilemna

I find myself in a very promosing situation.

In a short moment I will be embarking on a short road trip, about an hour in each direction, roughly enough time to listen to an entire album each way. My constant travelling companion will be staying home. That means-I have the car stereo to myself.

How shall I use this oportunity? The best idea is to listen to something my brother does not like. What, though, shall it be? There seems to be two options:
1) This is a perfect chance to listen to acts my brother hates: Liz Phair, Liars, Deerhunter, or Ted Leo's (Hearts of Oak(he likes Tyranny of Distances)).

2) Listen to something new that I haven't had a chance to listen to yet, such as: Sebadoh's III. Since my brother won't be there to complain if it sucks, this is a good use of time. However, if I dont enjoy this new music that I've chosen to listen to, I may have ultimately wasted time.

So really, one is the safest bet. But...I mean...there's no risk, but I know what I'm getting into. It's the argument Benja makes in that episode of Seinfeld where he takes Jerry to Mendy's and orders the soup.
