That means, no new podcast for the moment. I hope I can get it repaired soon and start back up ASAP! I've got some great bands I'm looking forward to playing.

Episode 51

Happy Friday

Happy Friday boys and girls.

I'm listening to The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner by Ben Folds Five on a rainy day at work. Good times.

This album produced one of my favorite songs ever, Mess.

First few lines of Mess

There was a time that I had nothing to explain
Oh, this mess I had made
But then things got complicated
My innocence has all but faded
Oh, this mess I have made
And I dont believe in god
So I cant be saved
All alone as Ive learned to be
In this mess I have made

Such great lyrics.

friday!

Another Friday is upon us.

here is a picture of Jenny Lewis to help past the time

*taken by http://www.youaintnopicasso.com/ *

steal an mp3....why stop there?

i see his point...but still funny

all work and no play...

how boring can one day be? I'm ready to jump out of my skin .......

Want to get a great album? Go buy The Raconteurs, Consolers of the Lonely. Great album from start to finish. Jack White is something else. I can't imagine writing the amount of songs he has written in the span of a few years. He even had time to help produce Loretta Lynn's album, which is also worth a listen.

I'm still not sold on the new Weezer album. It's slowly growing on me but it's not going to replace The Blue Album or Pinkerton. Hell, I'm not even sure if it's going to replace The Green Album.

When does a person know it's time to stop doing the music thing? I'm wondering that a lot these days. Do I stick with my band or am I too old and not talented enough? Guess time will tell.

Fact of the day.
First two childhood crushes for me,

Elvira and Dolly Parton. what do you think I was fascinated with?

meg white.

Why does Meg White (of White Stripes frame) get so much $h!t? She can play drums better than I can, so I don't really care.

I also think she is uber-attractive.

So here is your forum to bitch and moan. Why do you hate Meg White? Because she 'cant' play drums??? Jack White says that she makes it work for him and isn't that the important thing. At times musicians are so elite that it bothers me. No one is busting Johnny Ramone's ass for not being the best guitar player in the world. Sometimes simplicity is the best thing in the world.

Just something I thought of.....
