Rock and Pop: What was your most recent musical purchase?

I bought "No Cities Left" by the Dears last night, it's a wonderful album. It got me to thinking, because I don't buy music very often (I'm pretty content with my current library right now. It'll expand sooner or later, though), what the rest of you bought recently?

So, the question, of course, is what did you buy most recently? Be it album, song, EP, mixtape from a busker, whatever.

BQ: How often do you buy music?

BQ2: Favourite album of all time?

BQ3: Favourite song of all time?

BQ4: Ever buy a mixtape from a busker or local band?

BQ5: Now Playing?

Unrelated question: How are you all today?

Update:

I'm alright. Lost my iPod today, hoping to buy a new one soon.

    I bought "White Pony" by Deftones about a month ago. It was the first album I physically bought in about a year.

    BA: Not very often

    BA2: Tough one. Probably 'There is Nothing Left to Lose' by Foo Fighters

    BA3: Best of You - Foo Fighters

    BA4: I suppose you could call it a mixtape. It was a new-ish band at the time. Won it off a radio station.

    BA5: Guerilla Radio - Rage Against the Machine

    I'm not too bad, how are you?

    Today I saw Yip Jump Music from Daniel Johnston at my local record store. I was so excited that I almost peed myself, and then I bought it.

    I buy music all the time. Usually every time I go into the record store I come out with something.

    Hmmm that's a tough one. I'd have to say From a Basement on the Hill by Elliott Smith.

    That I can't do. I just have too many. Maybe Kings Crossing by Elliott Smith.

    Just once.

    These Days by Nico

    I've been better actually :/ it's actully been quite the sad day unfortunately.

    BQ2: HARD QUESTION!!!

    BQ3: also a hard question, mine changes by week. current it's Queen of Hearts by the Company of Thieves

    BQ4: no... i live in a small town where life revolves around high school football.............. no local bands.

    BQ5: Last Song by the Foo Fighters.
