Funeral For A Friend
Tonight I sit in the loneliest of all roomsIt’s full of colour and pictures of a happy childhoodThe light comes in from three big windowsand I can see kids riding their bikes on the streetSo happy, so naiveWhen I close my eyes I can feel it.I want to feel it.Make me blind. Tonight I stand on the tallest of all bridgesThe cities alive in the … Continue reading Funeral For A Friend

NOW HIRING MUSICIANS & AUDIO ENGINEERS
OPEN CALL FOR MUSICIANS Hey! We have a LOT of projects on the go right now and it’s all quite a lot for just us to handle alone. These projects were never exactly intended to be a one-woman-show, but I’ve been working with what I’ve got. That said, I am absolutely ready to get some more hands involved in what’s going on over here. I’m … Continue reading NOW HIRING MUSICIANS & AUDIO ENGINEERS
“Hear You Me” Cover Song Series
I’m a little late getting around to this blog post, but in my defence I sort of hate talking about this one. I did a 3-part YouTube series on my acoustic cover of “Hear You Me” by Jimmy Eat World back on July 9th 2021; I live-tweeted this event, much like I live-tweeted today’s “Tiny Vessels” – Death Cab For Cutie 3-Part cover song series. … Continue reading “Hear You Me” Cover Song Series
“Tiny Vessels” Cover Song Series
I don’t really have a good title for this type of series yet, so this will have to suffice for now. Today I released 3 videos as part of my Wayback-Playback Wednesday acoustic cover song series. Normally, when I do these Wednesday covers they’re all sort of created and released in the same format. I talk a bit about this on this other blog post … Continue reading “Tiny Vessels” Cover Song Series
House #24: Marc Salvadori*
I grew up on a court in a well-known suburb of Woodbridge, Ontario. The kind of court where everyone more or less knew each other, because between me and my 3 older siblings, we were friends with all the other kids on the street. We’d play ball hockey on the road, or basketball, or just go back and fourth between each others houses. As long … Continue reading House #24: Marc Salvadori*
A Real Champagne Birthday
I think it’s probably about time to share the rest of my Champagne Birthday story. For the first half of the day, you’ll want to start with my previous blog titled The Legend of Pol Roger. You can skip down to the July 29th heading, but it really makes more sense with the full context of the entire post. July 30th: An Unwelcome Visit It … Continue reading A Real Champagne Birthday
Record 2
Today’s spin feature is “Rite of Spring” by Angels & Airwaves. This is off of Angels & Airwaves second full-length release “I-Empire”. Here are the lyrics, written of course by Thomas Delonge: I was locked all day in the summer heatIn a small brown house in suburban streetsWith a skateboard and my shit guitarI dreamed all day that they would get me far My dad … Continue reading Record 2
Metro Chicago Presents Jimmy Eat World Live
This blog is a continuation of Lolzafest 2021: Part 1, my review of day 1 at Lollapalooza Chicago. Feel free to read that first, or go on ahead without the context. Since I no longer had complimentary coffee service to look forward to, my first real stop of the day on Friday July 30th was a local coffee shop. It was my 31st birthday and … Continue reading Metro Chicago Presents Jimmy Eat World Live
Lolzafest Chicago 2021
We’re going to pick this up more or less where we left off from The Getaway Hostel post yesterday. If you haven’t read that yet, check it out by clicking this help highlighted text that’ll take you straight to it. So let’s just quickly jump back to our arrival at The Moxy, which, for the record, I can’t recommend enough. On google it’s listed as … Continue reading Lolzafest Chicago 2021
