Huge Bummer…

So I mentioned earlier that my first drum teacher used to jamm with the Glenn Miller Band. At the time I thought it was the lamest thing..ever, but as the years and the experience came on I found out that wasnt such a lame thing..at all πŸ˜‰

So I decided to look him up…and I totally found something I didnt want to…

his tribute page. He passed away in 2004. On there he was quoted…

“I never worked a day in my life. I went from one party to the next and we were the entertainment.”

He actually told me this in one of my first lessons πŸ˜‰

Cheers old man, I may not have been a great drummer, but you taught me how to love the music πŸ˜‰

Strange lyrics…

I was actually humming when I wrote this…so weird considering how long since I’ve been inclined to write music (I am an avid listener, but writing…I havent done that in ages.) Anyhow…comment away…obviously not done but it’s a decent start.

Events wash over me like waves
Seems like life is sink or swim
and then I finally stand
I’m walking on water and these…
…these’r the best days of my life
A man stand watching over it all
on top of the world but not a bit involved
and then he finally comes down
Walks up to me and says…
…says “keep an eye on them for me man.”
I learned alot from the climb
The air up here is thin
and then I learned how to breath
the scarier part…
I think I forgot how to swim…
A view of the world from the top
leads me to see it all
the failures of mankind…
how easy it is to fall

But then I see some..
some that know to swim
some that know to climb
some that know to watch from oh so high




mmmm Music!

So it’s about time for a new 2009 Playlist…

Essentially I put the best music I can get my hands on in the past year, doesnt have to be released in the past year (as evident in prior playlists).

So anyhow…the new playlist will be streamed of course continually…around 100 songs…not too shabby for when you need a little jam at work πŸ˜‰

Anyhow if you have suggestions, let me know.
