There doesn’t seem like much to do as a music fan these days. Thankfully, I can still order albums over the internet, though the stacks of them flooding my modest apartment make me look much like a hoarder. Organizing music is always a good activity, especially when you find the odd record that you haven’t … Continue reading Alternate Album Cover Art IV

Trek Tunes
Every TV lover has that one program that they fall back to when they can’t think of anything to watch. For me, that tends to be Star Trek more often than not. Some think that the original Star Trek series (and even Trek series that followed) are too nerdy, dated, or not even culturally relevant. … Continue reading Trek Tunes
Music Meets Gaming – Crüe Ball
Electronic Arts and the Sega Genesis were a match made in heaven. The number of games with EA branding that you’ll see garnering mentions in discussions of underrated Genesis gems, never mind the diversity of said games, makes for as good an introduction to the 16-bit era of console games as any.

But as … Continue reading Small Things That Upset Me (and other Blog B-Sides)
Captured Concerts
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
