i.b. dog music: Nauseous Disaster
http://ibdogmusic.blogspot.com/2009/01/nauseous-disaster.html
The songs of Bob Corley. Thursday, January 22, 2009. Opening the bag once I got inside, the damage was plain, and painful; a long crack across the face, another across the back, and the rattle of wood inside. (Recurrence of nausea.). The gig went well, but the guitar needed tuning after every song.

Russell's brother, who...

To descend and coax the song from your struggling brain? Do you take a drive? Movement can be a good catalyst. Manual labor as well. A tired body often leads to an active mind. Turn on the rhythm section of your electronic keyboard to a beat you rarely use (reggae? Try an alternative tuning. Go on-line for tips. Bloggingmuses. Where do you find inspiration?

http://ibdogmusic.blogspot.com/2009/02/rhythm-melody-improve-reading.html
The songs of Bob Corley. Saturday, February 7, 2009. Rhythm and Melody Improve Reading*. 40 minutes a day teaching first graders folk song rhythms and melodies improved their reading scores. (New Horizons report). How we process music in our brains is connected with language and memory. ( New Horizons report). It also helps keep students in school. As the arts go, so goes society. If you're not close enough to come to the concert, find a way to support your local local Arts in Education program. To pause...

i.b. dog music: Where to go for inspiration? A Fellow Blogger!
http://ibdogmusic.blogspot.com/2009/02/where-to-go-for-inspiration-fellow.html
The songs of Bob Corley. Sunday, February 1, 2009. Where to go for inspiration? Friend, co-worker, and fellow blogger Tim Lennox. Has a great suggestion for finding song ideas. He used this when teaching broadcast writing to spark student ideas for stories. It's the The Yellow Pages (c). Every conceivable (and some inconceivable) category and listing resides in those thin yellow sheets, any one of which could spark an idea or - dare I say it - inspiration for a song. Interesting times in which we live.

The songs of Bob Corley. Monday, December 29, 2008. A Southern Baptist in Amsterdam, 1971.
