Memories from Home
Tyler recently completed his music video that we endorsed way back here. This video is a must see. Talk about production value!
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enjF0_ys4RQ[/youtube]
My favorite parts:
1. The dancing astronaut
2. The sweet piano interlude
3. The impressive “tunnel to city” reflection action at the video’s end
And while this praise is all focused at the video, the music itself is really tight. Sick.
Way to go Tyler, it’s awesome.
Theresa, you need an iPhone.
My sister is a very traditional sort of lady. In fact, I think she’d fit in really well if you were to drop her into the Renaissance*, progressive, medieval**, or romantic eras. This is opposed to me, who would struggle heartily in any other era but our modern one.
Because of her traditional nature, Theresa is slow to accept some of modern life’s joys. E-books? Not her thing. Her recipes? In a rolodex.
So I wrote a song. It’s called: “Theresa, you need an iPhone.”
Enjoy:
*this might be the most annoying word to spell. On the planet.
**you know, this one’s annoying too. I feel bad for history majors. They get stuck with all the tricky words.
Love Thy Neighbor – Manstae
A week or two ago I was visiting my folks when my father excitedly beckoned me to the computer.
Back when Dad D was in his teens he was in a band called Love Thy Neighbor. They played mostly honky tonk ragtime sort of covers that were fun and lively. He and his buddies even made a record. When I was a kid, we’d put that record on the record player in the basement and dance and sing along with his group.
It turns out that some music lovers found the Love They Neighbor LP and have talked about it online. One of the guys in Dad D’s band even found one of the two originals posted online. The song is called Manstae. It is delightfully 70’s. Check it out.
How sweet is that? My Dad’s band getting air time 40 years after releasing their LP. Way to go Dad D!
