Seventy degrees and a 20-mile stretch of highway, there's nothing like a lazy afternoon behind the wheel. Tunedocks or whatever you choose to use to play your iPod through the radio have to be one of my favorite inventions. I love it when a drive for hours and don't hear a single repeated song. There is something soothing about driving it calms me like very few things do. My friends and family know if something is bothering me by the miles I put on my car. I know it isn’t the most earth friendly therapy or most economical with the price of gas being $4.00 a gallon, but it beats drugs or alcohol

1. No Particular Place To Go - Chuck Berry

2. Low Rider - War

3. Green Onions - Booker T & the MG's

4. Groovin - Young Rascals

6. Bohemian Like You (uncensored so be warned!) - The Dandy Warhols

7. Route 66- Rolling Stones

8. Southside: Moby

The Cure: Friday I''m Still in Love

June 10th 2008 03:43

I recently had the honor of beholding the Godfather of Goth, Robert Smith and his band The Cure at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. This experience was a welcome visit from an old time friend…a favorite black sweater that has been worn with love and seen me through thick and thin.

The band really gave their fans something to talk about from the new unreleased tunes (due in September) to older numbers that only hardcore fans would know. I was amazed at the diverse crowd. Nascar fans, hippies, folkies, uptight townies, Goths, mad moms in mini-vans, collegiate types all held their metaphorical breaths while beholding the majesty that is Robert Smith

Ray LaMontagne in Concert

June 3rd 2008 04:09

I was honored to be an audience member at one of the most stirring concerts I ever had the pleasure of attending. The New Hampshire born singer, Ray LaMontagne delivered a harrowing but stirring performance Friday night at West Hampton Beach Perfoming Arts Center New York. This intimate venue was no larger than my high school auditorium. The lights were low and the band quietly entered and exited the stage without engaging the audience in meaningless banter, during the 1 1/2 hour concert, LaMontagne and his band dazzled the sold out audience in a quiet, subdued manner. For his encore, he sang songs from his upcoming album/CD that is due to be released in September.

Art of Sound

May 15th 2008 14:47

Inside the art of sound is not so much pure pleasure as an escape into an esential oneness within unspeakable meaning of the world. Music is the art that leaves as soon as it arrives. It always comes to us suddenly and it departs the same way. Music can't be reduced by explanation.
