What I Did On My Summer Vacation


I was off from 7/4-7/13. I went to some libraries, read 3 books, consumed a fair amount of beer and went to Galena, IL. I listened to a lot of music and relaxed.

Here's some things I read/listened to:


Robert Plant, "Principle Of Moments" Remastered & Reissued classic album with bonus tracks. One of my all time favorites


Loretta Lynn, "Van Lear Rose" No not about Norm Van Lear but an excellent roots country album produced by Jack White


Catch A Wave: Excellent biography of the Beach Boy's Brian Wilson, does not really add anything to his story though


The Yardbirds: Pretty good bio of a classic rock band

Happy 4th/I love the Internet!


Happy 4th of July. I'm celebrating with some Stella Artois Beer. Music provided by WLNX. I was Station Manager/Program Director there from 1985-1986. I was a DJ there from 1984-1990. Hard to believe that a little Mono radio station with an effective radiated power of 225 watts is now available to the world.
I saw this giant chair on Thursday on the way to work
