Vinyl Players


I just found a record player in storage at my house and I decided to set it up! It is pretty awesome, although I only have some boring vinyls of The Used and Arctic Monkeys I also found some awesome Hendrix and Sex Pistols at Barnes and Nobel and I bought them. Listening to Hendrix the way everyone originally did is pretty trippy. I love my record player!!! Everyone go get one!

CHAMELEONS ARE INSANE

okay so this is totally unrelated to music in everyway, but this video is pretty darn amazing

enjoy!



Micheal Jackson

He was amazing
He changed music in so many ways
Even though people think he was scary
He had a hard life
No matter what kind of person he was
His musical influence overcomes anything "weird" he did
My wish for him is that people appreciate what effect he had on the world of music

R.I.P. Micheal Jackson





this is probably one of my favorite Micheal Jackson videos ever

X- Ray Spex's "Identity" album cover

Eric Clapton Concert 6/30

Last night at 8 pm I attended the Eric Clapton/ Steve Winwood concert at the Hollywood Bowl. Getting there was sort of a hassle since there is always traffic getting to the Bowl especially when someone like Clapton is playing. It's pretty amazing that our generation of born in 1990s and up get to see these classic rock artists play. This is the type of music our parents grew up to and now we are all listening to it. I have to see the only disapointing part was that even though the concert was Clapton's it seemed like there was more focus on Winwood. I would have prefered to have just seen Clapton because I think he is an amazing musician. Watching his live cover of Voodoo Child by Jimi Hendrix was a highlight-- great musicanship mixed with a great song written by another great musican = FANTASTIC! I would recommend checking out upcomming classic rock concerts because you never know how much longers these guys will be playing!
