New Music…. to me, anyway
So I’m listening to a band I just found recently, I found them through a college station in Philadelphia, WXPN. They’re a little weird, a little artsy, definitely fun, I have to say I like really like them. Their name is Cherry Glazerr, and they’re a cool indie band. Not the only new music I…

Back in a writing mood again
I have an interest in punk rock music. The dumb stuff, and the smarter stuff, but not really the in-between stuff. Not the moody stuff, but some pop-punk, post-punk, I like the more interesting stuff, the classics like the Ramones, the Clash, and newer stuff like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the Strokes. I have to…

What is Art? (comments welcome)
I was thinking over what exactly constitutes a work of art. This is hard to pin down, considering just about everyone has their own idea. I myself have a side hobby of abstract painting, which is different in medium as well as in style, of my photography. I would say in my opinion that…

From the suburbs, though I now call the city of Reading home. So, I’m in the favored demographic, as people might say…. but I have…

On addiction…or close to it …:)….(being streaky)
Now, I’m not an addict, not really. But the tendencies are sometimes there. I’ll say this, I like things that are considered addictive…. I love my coffee, my sometimes pack a week of cigarettes, though my drinking is rare and celebratory. Now, I am by my own admission a streaky guy, in just about everything…

And it comes in black and…
it comes in white, and I’m frightened by those who don’t see it”, as the Avett Brothers say in one of their songs. It’s a good band, if you haven’t heard them, and you like roots and country, check them out. They have a real indie vibe, which I can’t define but I recognize. Anyway,…
