My buddy John and I listened to his brother Tommy’s Allman Brothers album…and then we put on an album by Captain Beefheart…and John scratched the heck out of it with his pocket knife.
That’s being a critic at it’s most basic and honest level, right?
Scratch this record.
Beefheart was too weird after the Allmans.
Here’s Kandace Springs doing a live performance at David Sanborn’s home studio.
MUSIC!
Man….I love music so much…
Awwwww….this is so great and so weird and…so great!
Puddles Pity Party!
Who knew?
I discovered this guy…Paul Thorn…the other morning.
Son of a preacher…nephew of a pimp.
That makes for an interesting person…and…a good artist.
I like this guy.
Good stuff.
What can you say about this one?
We need to learn how to treat each other better….walk a mile in our neighbor’s shoes before we suspect we understand them.
I need to learn a lot of things.
Man.
It was brutal at work yesterday…
Rain and a bunch of packages that weren’t designed (or boxed) to fit in a Jeep Cherokee…too long a route….too many dirt roads…too many steep dirt roads…too long a route…TOO LITTLE TIME….
Arghhhhhh.
I’m a whiner…but…I don’t like a day that starts off frantic and maintains frantic-ness until it culminates in a mad (and, somehow, even more frantic) dash to the finish line where I’m just barely making it back to the truck with my outgoing mail.
That’s not a way to live.
Pushing down the frantic so I can cope with the day takes a lot of energy, too.
Pushing down the temptation to panic and really blow a gasket takes a lot of energy.
I wish that I had a long river to skate away on most of these busy days.
I don’t know if they make rivers long enough, though.
How far could I go?
This is a really nice cover…one of the nicest.
(River…cover by Sierra Eagleson.)
Before you start singing….put your cigarette in the ashtray.
Man, times have changed.
That would be kind of cool to put on a show in front of a full orchestra.
This “old school” stuff is fun.
Here’s Sean Rowe doing a cover of a Richard Thompson tune called “1952 Vincent Black Lightning”.
I love to hear a cover that’s not just a straight imitation.
Sean Rowe does this song like he wrote it.
One guitar and a man who knows how to work it…and some passion…and you get art.
Man.
Here’s Justin Johnson with a workbench workout.
Man….that’s the best sounding shovel I’ve ever heard.
How would I ever get to see something like this without YouTube?
My friends are cool…but none of them play a shovel.
I dig it.
