Sound System

We bought our son a sound system for his pickup.He has wanted one for a while now,and he hasn’t been a problem lately so we thought he deserved it. He loves it,but now we can always tell he is coming home,because we can hear him from a mile away it seems like.

Music

If you have teenage children or are a teenager yourself, you may want to listen to this one. A recent study claims that listening to music can have an effect on whether children feel depressed. More music=more depression accoring to the study. Now, nothing is said in the study about the type of music, but [...]

Young songwriter

With the recent presentation of the Grammy awards, this just seems to be the right time to examine this video. This is a video of a 9 year old girl who sings a song she has apparently written. I have to say apparently since I did not see her write it. Whether she actually wrote [...]

Spider Man musical

The producers of the Spider Man musical must be praying for a good break. Their production, which is the most expensive in Broadway history, has been beset by technical difficulties and injuries. The latest happened earlier this week when a stunt man fell 30 off the stage. The producers better hope there are no more glitches otherwise this show will have [...]

Simon Cowell – Kinght

There’s a rumor circulating that Simon Cowell, the recently departed American Idol judge, may receive a knighthood. What is he being knighted for? For his ability to tell mediocre singers how bad they are in interesting ways? His ability to spar with Ryan Seacrest? What notable contribution to humanity has this man made to deserve [...]

Aretha Franklin

After hearing about the deaths of Irving Kirshner and Leslie Nielsen, I was really nervous to hear about this prayer vigil in honor of Aretha Franklin. She’s scheduled to undergo a medical procedure. Let’s hope she’s not number three for this group.

Superman

I can pretty much guarantee you’ve never heard the Superman theme like this. And this isn’t the movie theme we’re so familiar with. This particular arrangement uses the theme from the older cartoon or TV series. I can’t really tell which. Regardless, it is a roaring good time.

This is It

I really am falling behind in popular culture. I was a Michael Jackson fan when Thriller came out in the early 80s. Every song was, if not the greatest, enjoyable listening. I even enjoyed his Bad album. But after that, his life became a circus and I stopped giving him any credit as an artist. [...]

A new fan

I have never been a big Frank Sinatra fan. I know his name and am familiar with some his most famous hits. I definitely didn’t see why girls swooned over him. I thought of him as the American Idol of his day. But recently I bought a compilation album of his and decided to see what all the fuss was about. [...]

Cant stop being a geek

I took a road trip to Minnesota this past weekend and its a 7 hour drive for me to get to my destination. In order to make the time go by faster, I listen to music like most people, but I listen a little differently. I listen to movie scores and other off the wall [...]
