All this talk of Wilco lately made me dig out A.M. and I proceeded to play my favorite song from that album. High School parking lots, riding around with an open 12 pack, Lynyrd Skynyrd cranked on the stereo. The good old days before some people got smart about drinking and driving. I had a buddy who could wallpaper his room with tickets. Yep the good old days. Muscle cars were cheap and we all had them. The smell of 100 octane and burning rubber made us giddy and it didn't matter that we had nothing better to do. My teenage years were a carbon copy of the movie Dazed and Confused. I wish I could go back.....Enjoy a little Passenger Side.

Dude. Thanks so much for posting this. In addition to being a truly fine guitar player, you're a fine writer. Please ... carry on with this blog. Your audience will grow as you carry on.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliments, It feels good to have a place to share music and random thoughts.
ReplyDeleteNow I just need to figure out how to get people to notice.
You know on your whiskey & rebellion avatar thing that you put on my blog to indicate you're a-following -- and thanks for that by the way! -- clicking on it currently only reveals "sites you have joined."
ReplyDeleteIf you go to your blogger profile & click on edit profile, you can add other info including the URL for your own blog under "My Blog."
That way, when you comment or follow other blogs, people can click on your avatar & be directed straight to your place & check it out.
I think i went for most of a year with no one but Charlie Mac reading me -- & i was actually fine with that! (But now I'm greedy and want twos of threes of readers.) But yeah, making an archive of thoughts & music that someday your kids might want to check out is another cool thing about this whole endeavor.
