Wannablog: January 2010
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 17, 2010. The Fiddler of Reeling and Rocking. I've always been struck by that story's description of how powerfully music can affect a listener. In this case, it does not end well. (With Hardy, it never does.) Car'line Aspent, the young woman transfixed by Ollamoor's playing, ultimately dances herself into collapse and convulsions as she is unable to resist the relentless sequence of tunes. The Fiddler of the Reels. Friday, January 8, 2010. Pitch Less Than Perfect. Having just been downgr...

Monday, May 25, 2009. New Photos, Old Cars. We played a few weeks back at the Hot Rods and Harleys in Rahway, and while the weather probably kept a few folks away, we did have a lot of fun. And we did get a bit of sun, too. We also have some great photos, thanks to Debbie. Click the link over on the right to see the slideshow. Labels: Hot Rods and Harleys 2009.

Wannablog: Dead Door, Posthumous Pardon
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2010/11/dead-door-posthumous-pardon.html
Wednesday, November 17, 2010. Dead Door, Posthumous Pardon. Today, I read that outgoing Florida governor Charlie Crist has decided to push for a pardon for.wait.Jim Morrison (who died in 1971) for something that happened in.wait.1969. And that something was lewd and lascivious behavior that took place at a performance, rather than some benificient but misunderstood act for which he had been long castigated. For a link to the.

Wannablog: December 2008
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 4, 2008. Several days after Thanksgiving seems an appropriate time to give thanks.for the rock and roll, any way. Actually, these thoughts crossed my mind right after our last show, at the Liberty Tavern. That has long been one of our favorite places to play, but that night (Nov 21) was what I refer to as "one of the good ones." The late nights, loading up gear at 2 AM- that can't be the reason why we do this, is it? It helps to have a crowd that is ready, willing, and able to rock and...

Wannablog: Closing Time for Bar 411
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/closing-time-for-bar-411.html
Saturday, March 27, 2010. Closing Time for Bar 411. If you've read this blog before, you'll know that I often note the passing of rockers as they happen. (Pretty much that's all I do with this blog! So it was only after I began posting this message this afternoon that I realized that this, too, is an obituary of sorts. I was adding gigs to the various calendars I use on the website, and today, the following message greeted me as I went to add things to Bar411. Email address or the Bar411 Facebook page.

Wannablog: October 2009
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 22, 2009. All You Need is Love.and an AK-47. On Tuesday, I read a story in the. From a reporter who had been kidnapped by the Taliban in Pakistan, and was held for 7 months. It's a scary tale, and it's a reminder of how high the stakes are in this international world we live in today. But the story is also surprising too, and funny, at least at the part when we realize once again how truly international the world is. Read this excerpt from the end. Labels: Power of Music.

Wannablog: April 2009
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. Phil Spector found guilty. I'll give it away in the first sentence- it's sad. It's sad when anyone with a talent throws it away. It's sad when one's inner demons get the upper hand and life spirals out of control. It's sad that the life of an innocent was lost this way. Music producer Phil Spector, center, surrounded by his defense team during closing arguments at the retrial murder case in Los Angeles in March, courtesy of the New York Times. And, as an aside, would you reall...

Wannablog: There goes the reunion
http://wannabesblog.blogspot.com/2010/06/there-goes-reunion.html
Saturday, June 26, 2010. There goes the reunion. Sad news this morning from the rock world- Pete Quaife of the Kinks (a fellow bassist, no less! Has left this village green and moved on to the big sky. Read the Time obit here; very interesting anecdote about a fistfight breaking out among the bandmembers in a limousine after Quaife whistled a Beatles melody! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
