I had the iTunes on shuffle yesterday and an unknown Neil Young song came on. I checked it out and I don't know how it's possible that I've owned Zuma for years and never listened to it.

I am listening to the Bird and the Bee covering Hall and Oates. This is happening because of choices I have made in my life.

I played one song off that album on my radio show a lot. Man, that was a while ago! I kind of miss it.

Alternating between this and this.

Lately I am feeling like kind of a dork for being as obsessed as I am with black culture(s). Today I listened to hip hop, ate a delicious spicy sandwich at a cool new Cajun restaurant, sat at a coffee shop listening to delta blues and reading The Warmth of Other Suns.

That book, by the way, is one of the best things I have ever read. I have always been incredibly touched by the stories of people leaving their homes in search of a better life. This book is ruling my brain.

Last night I saw these guys and enjoyed it a lot. The songs with the guy playing drums and the woman on guitar were much better. He gets a lot of good beats out of a 4-piece drum kit.

A friend made me listen to some songs by the guy who is the subject of this Oscar nominated documentary called Searching for Sugar Man. Have we talked about this? He made a couple of records in the 1960s that flopped and then spent the rest of his life doing construction work, not knowing he was a huge hit in South Africa, where they assumed he was dead, but finally a guy tracked him down. It is a great story but the production on the recordings is so 1960s that it's painful.

wow, I thought "there's no such thing as sounding painfully 60s!" and then I listened to the track on the trailer... wow. Yikes. Painful.

Inspired by Paul, I have been listening to Neil Young tonight. Man, nothing makes you feel like shit like Neil Young. How does he do it? There is no other musician who makes me feel so unbelievably sad. On the other hand, playing Tell Me Why on the guitar makes me feel great. Even though I have very little idea what he's singing about.

I've been reading Neil's autobiography lately.  Dude's a trip.

This morning I woke up with Come On Baby Let's Go Downtown stuck in my head.

That...is not what I thought social distortion sounded like?  It was alright, I am only posting this cause those lines about running away, but finding yourself there and you can run all your life and never go anywhere- those are like half of the lyrics I write.

Lately when it gets warm out (it's been a while) I get this song stuck in my head. This week I'm going to Nashville for a few days for a garage rock festival... but ever since I heard it's going to be in the 60s I'm imagining linen shirts and this song. All sitting outside the show, cigar, drink with a lime, flirting with girls with my chest hair showing.

We don't have anywhere to stay, so it might be a car camping trip of sweaty rock show guys. Fun.

This week I'm going to Nashville

Neat, I'm going to Nashville in a couple weeks.

I can't remember if I've already asked, but is anyone familiar with Nashville? What do I need to do while I'm there? Specifically interested in country/bluegrass venues and such but I welcome all suggestions.

I have never been to Nashville, but the Bon Appetit article on it makes me want to go there and get hot chicken.
