I am what I am. I like food, photography, and anything that does not involve getting mortally wounded, or dying. I don't take things too seriously, so i'm not at all that serious about being serious.
Seriously, just have fun, which is what I like to do sometimes, as long as I don't die, or get mortally wounded.
Yeah, so, we were singing it at work yesterday. I forget what song we were really ‘trying’ to sing, (and really sing(ing) is also loosely interpreted as just moans, hums, and random noises in the office) but somehow we always ended up with the Brady Bunch Theme.
Perhaps we should do a Earworm TV theme week….hmmmmm
I have such trivial goals in life, one of which is to get this photo of the lovely Jessica Nigri to 1,000 hits. I shot this photo at last years New York Comic Con, it’s kinda shitty if you ask me, but 2 things happened.
1. I got to meet Jessica Nigri
2. I was able to photograph Jessica Nigri.
Like I said, trivial goals. Maybe sometime in the future, I may be able to do a full photo shoot of/with her.
Please the 10’s of readers that we have (and that’s being optimistic), help my photo get to 1k.
I don’t need to give much introduction to this song. My GF mentioned it a few days ago in a text, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this song, and the video.
Sooo, yeah, I haven’t posted in a while. After my short vaca, work chewed me up, spat me out, and chewed me up again, regurgitated me, and well, you get the idea. It’s been a bad ride the past few days, with the exception of some b-day treats and goodies, it’s just been quite gloomy.
In any case, my entry for today’s Earworm isn’t so much as an Earworm, but a state of mind.
Yes, I was quiet for a few days enjoying the grey and rainy skies of the Outerbanks in North Carolina (South Shores to be exact). I had my laptop, and I did post one Earworm while I was down there, but I just couldn’t be bothered. In any case, let me get settled in, and hopefully, will proceed to our regularly blog.
I leave you with a classic video to celebrate my return
First full day of Vacation, and a severe thunderstorm just happens to roll by, thus eliminating any chances of outdoor fun by the beaches of the Outerbanks. In the last I don’t know, how ever many weeks since the 2nd half of July, it’s been raining at a steady rate. It’s all good, since we don’t have much of a drought problem, but it just kind of sucks at the same time.
I don’t particularly like rain since being in the city with a lot of people, and being a tall dude, the umbrella’s just seem to be at my eye level, and other pedestrians just seem to not care. Anyway, every time it rains, we just start singing ‘Here Comes the Rain Again’ by the Eurythmics, and as it was doing just that, I started humming it again, and again, and again.
I’m going to keep it short and sweet. So, today, myself, and my GF, made our way down to the Outer Banks in North Carolina. It’s normally a 7 hour trip with no hitches, but, sadly, it took us 10 hours. Traffic pretty much from the start of Virginia all the way down to North Carolina. In any case, TLC’s song Creep came on SiriusXM, as we were creeping in traffic, and my GF made a comment, stating that, ‘yeah, that’s us, we’re creeping our way down.
I’ve been sort of humming it in and out through out the day ever since.
I finally heard the full town hall of Linkin Park on SiriusXM’s Octane Channel, and as a fan it was quite the treat. Learned a few bits of the band that I didn’t know.
Anyway, in the promo’s they kept playing this part where some dude asked about the piano intro for In The End, and I must admit, it is quite epic. I basically just kept thinking about that intro.
Fast forward to when the LP played In The End during the Town Hall, I think Mike made a comment, that in the past 6 or 7 years, it was the first time Chester was able to sing the bridge.
I remember when Cheesecake and I saw LP at MSG in 2011, the crowd pretty much took over for the band when they played In The End, and I must say, it was quite epic.
LP is hands down my all time favorite band, and although In The End was not the song that made me notice them (Papercut holds that title), In The End remains a timeless classic, and possibly one of the songs that propelled the band into the next level.
Fun fact, Chester didn’t even want In The End to be in Hybrid Theory. He thought it was too soft.
