Lez Zeppelin

My good friend (and my husband's former bandmate) Leesa is the drummer for this incredible band.  They are as impressive as they are entertaining.  Do not miss a chance to see them!  They will make your blood molecules dance.  Leesa is world class.  Such a treat.

Sheena is a Punk Rocker

The first LP I ever bought with my own money was The Ramones' "Rocket to Russia", when I was in the 8th grade.  No one told me to get it.  I didn't know what it would sound like.  I didn't know who the Ramones were.  I didn't know what punk was.  I just saw the record and impulsively bought it.
Needle dropped, mind blown.  It changed me forever.

Do yourself a favor and watch this video.

Cheek: Drop

I just happen to be married to a true gentleman and prince among men.  But if that wasn't enough, he is a fabulous singer/songwriter and musician.  Here is a link to a song performed by one of his earlier powerpop-rock Texas bands, Cheek.  I'm real fond of their music.

Cheek features Jay Maulsby (voice/guitar), Brett Needham (voice/guitar), Steve Bundrick (drums), and Chris MacFarland (bass).

Listen up to Drop, y'all.

Purple Rain, Purrrrple rain

I was telling my husband that I thought it would be neat if rain came down in colors, based on severity. So, when you want to talk to someone about how hard it was raining, you could describe it as yellow rain or pink rain, and they would know exactly what you meant. Or you could look out the window and know immediately where it's letting up or getting worse, just based on the colors in the distance.

"...I only wanted 2 see U laughing in the purple rain..."

Helpfullest post of 2014

I was just about to move a set of my kid's unwanted swim goggles to the donation pile, when it occurred to me to try them out as an onion-cutting protection device of coolness, with an intense, sulfurey onion I was chopping up for some pasta sauce.  It totally worked. Perfect seal around the eyeballs.  You're welcome.

The more you know...

More. Bliss.

I think about this Kenna video all the time.
