"My latest brush with "greatness" was being about 2 seats from Eddie Money on a small turboprop out of Waco, Texas, about four weeks ago My friends came up with many great lines that I could have dropped, but my fave was "Hey…"

Rock and Roll Prose
A finely crafted sentence is a thing of beauty.. Willa Cather, Hunter S Thompson, Ernest Hemingway all able to string words together so powerfully. Now put notes behind them, find the right instumentation to bring them to life, how about a back beat to get the kids dancing? Now you have the common denominator that brings us together.
I love lryics, the stories that songs tell, the words that can lift you or lay you out straight. Tell me your best musical stories, or the songs that have the most beautiful string of words or phrase.
My own favorite is Dylan's "There was music in the cafes at night. And revolution in the air. "

So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years. A couple of years back, he got on Facebook and he posts long, winding tales about himself, his dogs, his home, his past, and a really lovely Mother's Day post last weekend. Photos go up. The whole thing. It's like he disappeared and then came back on his own terms. I didn't know how to take it. I'm a huge Monkees fan, no doubt. And, being a woman/girl of a certain age, I have a favorite and that favorite is Mike.…See More
