Hello cryptic rock and roll.

The Reason, by Hoobastank…800+ million views.

This is so cryptic, only i understand how it’s meant to be listened to today.

Such a lovely message for this moment.

The way i talk

Morgan gets made fun of for the way he talks.

Me too.

Morgan for his accent.

Me for my paradoxical ideas.

We just live the way we talk, ya’ll.

Started a list

Was just making a few notes and it morphed.

Started a list of Rock and Roll Bands that i grew up with in the 1970s and 1980s. It began on a post-it note when the idea sprouted.

It was never to be a comprehensive list.

But it grew.

The inspiration was from, “what kind of music would i play loudly in order to drown out a noisy neighbor?”

The rest as they say is history.

Ps. Never want to have to play music loudly in order to mute a neighbor’s loud music. But being a creative, this-may-not-work kinda guy, had to run with the idea. The time to fix the roof is when the sun is shining.
