Hello all!

Music has always been an instrumental part of my life. Thinking back, I was that girl in sixth grade who carried around a Lisa Frank trapper keeper with a champagne colored cat on it stuffed with the lyrics of songs. I carried that thing everywhere! I would go home and listen to my cassette tapes of Green Day and Letters To Cleo and feverishly scribble down the words that I heard (which were not always correct!) pushing the rewind and play every refrain. That passion for the poetic nature of lyrics, and the rhythm and simplicity of the instrumental section, carried me through my life. Music just made sense to me, like a common language musicians spoke and I understood completely. It lifted me above the ugliness that surrounded me as a child, and helped me envision a world I have never set eyes upon. It gave words to my emotions. I am even in the process of learning how to play the bass guitar! In short, music is my life :)


Now, when you have a love of music as great as I do, you realize that there are not very many people that know and care about music to that degree! But I love talking about all things music. My husband does a pretty good job keeping up, but I am brimming over with thoughts and opinions. So, I created this blog to connect with complete strangers and discuss music! It's my hope that other people who have an opinion about music chime in and start a dialogue...don't be shy!
