News wrap-up

First off, I'm sad to see the news about Danny Federici's passing. Danny was the keyboardist for the E-Street Band for 40 years. Honestly, I really don't know what the man looked like, but I know is contribution to the Boss' music will be sorely missed. Go to the Boss' website for some video of Danny in action.

The rest of the news I had was all stuff that you can find at rollingstone.com, so go there for some entertainment until I get some original thoughts to jot down. May you all have a wonderful weekend, and be sure to give your loved ones a hug and a kiss from me.

Sick of Goodbyes

Here's a great song put out by a band called Sparklehorse back in the 90's. It can be found on their record titled Good Morning Spider. They have put out several albums that are all superb, and this song has spurred me to grab all their albums again (I probably sold them all in college to fund my cribbage habit).



Also, Rolling Stone has their Spring Music preview up on their site here. Loads of good stuff coming down the pipe, including Weezer, Neil Diamond, and Mötley Crüe. Kickstart my Heart indeed.

It's all going to go downhill from here

My wife was kind enough to locate my first gray hair for me the other morning. It was a huge strand that was sticking out of my melon like a sore thumb. So, on top of me losing my hair, it's now turning gray. Awesome!








In other news, the 1st track from Mudhoney's new record, The Lucky Ones, can be heard at this location. Check it out if you need to hear some good ol' Seattle grunge this morning. The new record hits stores on May 20th.




And finally, if this is true, I will be the happiest camper of them all.
