August 07, 2008For the Love of All That's Vegan, Vote for Ted LeoIf you're like me, you listen to music while you cook. To be fair, I listen to music or podcasts while doing most things, but I really love to listen to music while I cook. So I'm saying this with a certain degree of authority: Ted Leo is, hands down, the best music to cook to. It's high energy, easy to sing along to, and gets your ass shaking while you're whisking your sauces. I especially like to put in "Shake the Sheets" while I'm cooking, so that by the time "Counting Down the Hours" comes on, I can sing into my wooden spoon. This is why, when the VegNews survey came up this year, I was sure to write in "Ted Leo" under Favorite Vegan Musician. (Don't ask me why he wasn't there in the first place!) I implore you to do the same. While you're there, you might want to vote for me as your favorite vegan cookbook author. Your vote doesn't count unless you fill out at least half of the survey and leave your contact info, but voting automatically qualifies you for some awesome prizes, so that's just in your best interests to do so, anyway.

Hey, I wrote in Ted Leo before I even saw this! And I voted for you, too. Woo.
heather, you are my kind of woman.
Aw, crap! I already wrote in Weird Al.
...But I got the other vote right.
I completely agree. I listen to ted leo all the time while cooking, driving, sleeping, lounging, reading, walking...etc...you get the picture.
I also saw him at starbucks the other day which made me listen to him even more...if that's even possible.
HAHA! i just listened to a call in show the other day where ted called in and complained about the lingo starbucks employees use with each other. i wonder if was after the starbucks visit where you saw him.
yay for ted leo!

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists opened up for Pearl Jam at Madison Square Garden this summer. They were awesome. I'm gonna burn a CD right now so I can listen while I cook!
