What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
I am turning more and more to music to soothe the savage beast in these trying times, not that I wasn't listening before, I am just revisiting tunes and re-interpreting lyrics. Good way to pass the time, and a good way to draw parallels to what is going on today.
Hey fellow music lover! I "self-medicate" with music to keep the tinnitus at bay, among other things, inner beast included. Music is as good for the body as the heart.
Thanks. I have built quite an eclectic mix, from Bach and Handel to Foster the People, and just about everything in between across many genres. I'm a little light in the jazz department, but I can always listen to Diana Krall and Dave Brubeck and get in the mood. I do have something of a weakness for some of the one-hit wonders available on movies, i.e Who You Talkin' To Man [Ciscandra Nostalgia] from John Wick, Got a Feeling/Can't Let Go [Caught a Ghost] from Bosch, and Outlaw State of Mind [Chris Stapleton] from Hell or High Water. There are many others. I put it all on a USB stick and have it hooked to the car stereo in my Crown Vic [three amps, two subs, two 6x9's and two 6.5's] - thanks to my recently deceased mother-in-law and her inheritance :) There's nothing like driving to work, observing the eastern Tennessee sunrise, hitting the curves on a country road and cranking a Bach Organ Concerto - and then driving home after a day with high school teenagers and cranking Deep Purple's Lazy. Aaah yes, the power of music 😎😜
Man, it's therapy of a holy sort. I used to do a lot of 12-hour drives cross country with The Gaslight Anthem blaring and my voice hoarse from singing along. Made some of my best memories that way.
Cheers fren!
Back at ya 😉
