Classical Music

Last night after everyone was in bed I sat in the living room reading the bio of Edie Sedgwick and listening to classical music.  There are a bunch of music TV channels on Comcast that I've listened to with a lot of friends and family members, but I couldn't listen to them because back then you had to have the package with the cable box back then.  Now that everything's digital and I have them myself I always forget about them!

I forgot that I really like classical music soft in the background while I do what I do online or when I'm reading for pleasure or reading something I'm going to review. 

Not so much this type of classical music:

The 1994 movie version of "Little Women" (starring Winona Ryder) is one of my most favorite movies of all time.  I LOVE the soundtrack!  I don't know if the score is counted as classical music but it is as far as I am concerned!

POTLUCK DINNER (what other shows feed you too?!!)

7$/5$ with canned food or potluck donation

The night was great. I loved listening to music and eating great food with really cool people. Even if we did have to watch Baby Eisenstein with Trish and Brent's daughter while we where waiting for the basement stage to get set up. You'd be surprised how quickly those videos can suck you in! It's like the Telletubbies x10!

Mysteries of our disguise

I don't have a favorite song per se, it's more like the music I listened to in high school is full of songs I love. Then there's the new century filled with more songs I love.

One song that gets me motivated is "Bombs Over Baghdad" by Outkast. I'm a huge Outkast fan.

I am also a huge Portishead fan and was the only person in my school to ever have a Portishead T-shirt (I was also one of the first rocking a South Park t-shirt as well)

Other artists that are very significant to me are Fiona Apple, Sarah McLachlan, and Tori Amos.

I miss the days when hip hop was urban poetry and not the recipes for dystopia.

I miss the days when hip hop was urban poetry and not the recipes for dystopia.

I miss the days when rock and roll bands were gritty, authentic, and raw to the touch.

There's a lot about music that the music industry has managed to ruin for me, unfortunately.

I miss the good old days..

And now for something completely different.....
