These days parents pretty much force their kids to participate in all sorts of structured activity.   George Carlin has a great bit about this, in which he pokes fun at how pushy and annoying parents can be.
That all being said, I could definitely someday see myself forcing my kid to play an instrument (like guitar [...]

What I really mean is one man’s filler is another man’s treasure.   Filler is really in the eye of the holder, or rather in ear of the listener when it’s comes to analysis of any music album.
If you think of any artist/band that you’re really into, you’d never think of any of their albums as [...]

After discussing some music theory with Jeremy, I’ve come to that conclusion…
While in Sam Ash music store, we were fiddling around on the keyboards.  He’s the piano/keyboard player, so I asked him something along the lines of, “Which keys do I focus on if I want to solo in A minor?”
As a bit of [...]

10/13 - “Fuck SOME cops”

Maybe not fuck all police, but definitely fuck this one cop.   The other day I’m driving to work, and I stop at a red light.  I’m rocking out to Bob Dylan’s Summer Days, when I hear a quick beep.  I turn to my left, and see a cop car in the left turning lane.  The [...]

We all have our favorite songs and favorite lyrics, and some of us like to share ‘em with the world.  For example, we might copy and paste song lyrics into our away message.  We might even decide we want to put lyrics into a Facebook status update.

I don’t have custom ringtones for certain people, and I’ve gone through 2 phones over the last 2 or 3 years.   The only time I ever really change my tone is when I get a new phone.   Assuming that whatever song someone chooses for their tone is a song they like, what makes it a [...]

I must say, I’m pretty much Michael Jackson’d out at this point, and the main reason I haven’t blogged about his death, is because I’ve spent enough time both conversing about it in person, and on Facebook.  I loved his music, and felt really sad for the man because of a lot of the unfortunate [...]

6/9 - “Mom joke of the day”

Since your mom has such an ugly face, and I’m a Beatles fan, what song should I listen to while I’m having sex with her?
“Paperbag Rider”

6/4 - “United States of Australia”

Beer commercials throughout time have been very hit or miss for me.  I’m not a big beer drinker, but who wouldn’t have an appreciation for stupid humor and/or boobs…Yes, boobs.
Now on TV they’re running this ad, which I believe is for Budweiser.  I tried to hunt down a YouTube clip, or a transcription, but was [...]

5/23 - “The devil returns every 25 years”

The classic song, “Sympathy for the Devil” by the Rolling Stones is as far as I know open to interpretation when it comes to a specific meaning.  I’ll let you do your own research.
However, off the top of my head I can pinpoint two moments in rock n’ roll history in which this song helped [...]
