bacon wrapped, deep fried, butter
 

I have a lot to say I just don’t always know how to say it

When pertaining to music, I don’t often speak in theory, or analogy, I speak in emotion,….where I was when I heard a certain song, how it made me feel, what I was wearing, who I was with ,…….what actions it inspired later

That’s a very selfish way to talk

I’m selfish in my music,…..it’s just for me, until I meet someone I think will benefit from it, as I might have,….and then I share it,…..i share it with my emotions in hopes it will evoke the same in others,……because it made me so excited, because it made me feel something ,…..

Being southern, there’s a few things that are sure to make me happy,…..things that are made of bacon, or butter, or deep fried


So bare with me, with my misspellings, with my “,…..”,……..because these things are my bacon wrapped deep fried butter,….

this morning i had a present from an exboyfriend for my upcomming birthday

he sent me the download for the new lucero album,....its no secret that they are my favorite band

i've listened to it all day,.....and though i've held tenneesee in such high regaurds, i believe this may be my new favorite album

i've listened to it, and felt it, and fallen in love with it,...i've cried to it, and sang with it, and at one point rode around on old solitary tree lined dirt roads, as high as i could function, and just,......listened

so much of my life has been soundtracked to lucero, most of my relationships have had one 'album' that made sence to me during its course, and this newest album is very bitter sweet at the moment

ben nichols, pens in one the way he can, everything i want to say right now,....everything i want to say to brandon (the sailor who sent it to me in the first place), everything i want to say about the new developing relationships in my life, everything i want to say to my mother, of all people,......

on a musical note,...they've added horns, which at first scared me,....but the more i listen to it, the more it just works,....the more i'm happy to hear them,...
ben's voice seems to be clearer on this album, which sometimes tempers his brooding mood,....there's also alot of really fun melodies that lightens it more than the typical lucero sound,....even if the lyrical content remains as whiskey soaked as ever

This is how everyone should be when talking about their music and how it moves them so don't apologise even if the lack of capitals is irksome ;)

today was the perfect day for the allman brother's melissa,.....its started to cool down a bit, and though the sun shone brightly, there was a crispness to the air

i love this time of year and the way the allman brothers easily play into it

i tend to ride dirt roads alot,....they are my very favorite thing, a good dirt road with big oak trees, cows who allow you to visit them along the way and the feeling of cool fall air filling my lungs through rolled down windows

melissa is a daily, sometimes twice daily, event for during my fall excursions,...there's just something about that rolling guitar lick and the promise of a love that holds a man near

I know what you mean about something just feeling so much better during a certain time of the year. For the past six years now I always get this urge to read H.P. Lovecraft during the fall/ early winter months. It's hard to explain but just something about the weather seems to add an extra sense to his writing. I don't really think I have any musical preferences based on seasons though... or maybe I do but I just haven't taken the time to explore it. Regardless "Melissa" is one of the Allman Brother's best songs.

i've the most horrible week,...a couplea friends are breakin up, and i'm having to hold them together, separately,....i had a horrible cakeless birthday,....i've been stuck typein sex offender reports the past two weeks,....there's someone i want to be with so bad, and just cant get too,....just, a buncha stuff

but this is makein me feel better right now

lucero - what are you willing to loose
ray lamontage - winter birds
blue october - 18th floor balcony
neil young - castles burning
spoon - i summon you
laura marling - failure
jason boland and the stragglers - mary
counting crows - raining in baltimore
john mayer - stop this train

here i sit listening to the new guy clark album,....first run through

i told bulldog he was like 80, i think its really closer to 70,...but i'm still amazed at the music this man puts out,...

this is the first time i've heard the new stuff in recorded form, i saw him about six or seven months ago at poor david's pub in dallas,.....
i shouldnt be as stunned as i am, but its just,.....some of his best work,...it really is,....and thats sayin alot of a song writter like guy clark,....

so far the stand out are the guitar and heimingway's whiskey, all she wants is you.....

i'll be more than happy to pass the download to anyone who wants it

My inner Grammar Nazi is simply itching to bash the hell out of your posts here, but I can get the gist out of what you're saying mostly. :wave:

Will be following.

Other than the John Mayer I'd sport this.
