There are very few artists or musicians who have an entire catalogue of stuff that I like. Willie Nelson has never sang a bad song. I’ve been a fan since the 1970’s and hope to have a complete collection of his songs by the end of this year.
It’s been ages since I read a good book. I just got away from even looking at books in the store.
I think I will go to a bookstore this weekend and take a look around. I miss the total escape into a good story.
Less TV. More Music.
Why do all the rock and roll type of songs suck? I don’t like anything they play on the rock stations anymore.
For some reason, I really like the new country songs. The artists like Randy Houser and Gary Allen are sexy and funny and the kinds of songs that you can just bop along to while driving in traffic.
Friends want to go to Six Flags for the day next Saturday. I’ve never been. Six Flags sounds like fun, but I’ve never been on many thrill rides.And it is very expensive for just one half day of “fun.”
There used to be a little carnival that would come around to the mall parking lots. And the state fair always has some. But I feel stupid admitting that the biggest ride I’ve been on was the big ferris wheel at the state fair a few years ago. So this should be an adventure if I go.
This weekend we had a Crawfish Boil downtown that featured several different bands that played one after another for the entire day and well into the night. The festival is usually held downtown on the riverfront. But all this rain has caused the Cumberland River to overflow and Riverfront Park is mostly underwater. So they moved it to the parking lot south of LP Field, where the Tennessee Titans play football.
I have to admit that most of the bands were too obscure and too strangely alternative rock for my taste. But it was good to have some different music offered besides country, and the crawfish was a nice treat for this seafood starved city.
