One activity that I’ve been meaning to do before I get too forgetful is to type out all the concerts that I have attended in my life. It may lack a few of the gigs that I saw in high school or some from smaller-scale local bands, but I’d estimate that the so-called ‘significant’ shows … Continue reading Captured Concerts

Wilson & Lee
What can you say about a business that lasted for nearly one-hundred years that hasn’t been said already? Plenty, actually. Businesses should be able to last decades so long as a consistent stream of clientele find value in what the business has to offer. Each customer has their own story, and I’m no exception. I … Continue reading Wilson & Lee
Childhood Car Tunes – Christmas Cassettes
Of all the things that change in life, I can always look at music as one thing I can keep consistent.

Those smiles aren’t just out of appreciation for the Crocodile Hunter-themed birthday cake in front of … Continue reading Asking for Music as a Gift

Bands did … Continue reading Music Anti-Videos
1996 Sports Time The Beatles Cards
As promised, here’s the second portion of my Etsy purchase from Wonderland Toys. In actuality, these were the first of all the packs of cards I decided to buy when I found the seller. As The Beatles were also known as The Fab Four, this came in a bundle of four. I don’t think that … Continue reading 1996 Sports Time The Beatles Cards
