Oh My God, Jars Of Clay!
I’ve always admired and enjoyed the music of the guys from Jars Of Clay. I stumbled onto Jars back in 1994, when I heard and fell in love with PFR’s pop masterpiece “Great Lengths”. If you love melodic pop, then you know what I mean about “Great Lengths”. I first saw Jars in concert in […]

Kids & Lyrics
I have two boys, ages 13 and 10 and I’m very close to both of them. Even after a decade of being a dad, I’m still blown away at how intensely, and differently, I love them. I think about that quite a bit and plan on writing more about it here. My older son and […]

Love Bomb, Side 2, Made My Day
If the new “Long Live 80’s” page doesn’t make you want to grow your mullet back, here’s a more obscure blast from the past…. If you haven’t heard Side 2 of The Tubes “Love Bomb”, you’re truly missing out on something special. It came on randomly in iTunes today and it made my day. AllMusic.com […]

I Can Hear Music, Sweet Sweet Music
There is no doubt that music is a big part of my life. I’m one of those people that while in conversation, when a random word or phrase is spoken, my brain will access a song lyric with those exact words. Depending on the setting, I often break into song right then. If it can’t […]
