The day the music died…

Well, this short experiment has come to an end.
Turns out I like listening to music a lot more than I like writing about it.

I’ll keep the MP3s up on the site for now. Enjoy.

Maybe sometime in the future I’ll relaunch the site…try a different approach.

Thanks for stopping by.

And remember…in the words of Bob Seger…
Rock and roll never forgets.

In a subjective sense we’ve seen a lot. We make the best of what we’ve got.
