Stateside it’s the beginning of a long weekend. Thanks to a holiday. What does that mean? Well the first thing is gas prices have seen a hike in price in the past two weeks that is roughly about $0.25 higher than they were about two weeks ago. Second, everyone and their dog will be on the road – most likely. Third, lots of BBQs are ready to be attended.
For me, I’ll be running around getting fitted for some new clothing today. That’s exciting. New stage wear! Then I’ve got several friends who are having get-togethers that I’ll be attending. I’ll probably take monday off just from all the running around.
In the meantime, I’ll leave you with this little ditty for today: Little Dog, mostly because people will be out with theirs and I’m still looking for one. Enter fuzz guitar tone with a driving riff. And what is hiding behind it? Cowbell. One of the new running jokes in music is: More Cowbell! Danny has it. The drums come pounding thru along with the vocal. I get a sense of maybe the 70’s when I hear the vibe going on with the song. It instantly reminds me of something that maybe the cats of Dog Town would have been skating to when they were around. Though I’m only guessing about that because I’ve got the documentary on DVD.
It was one of the first things I thought of when I heard this song – Dog Town. Go figure. It’s not a bad thing for Danny as it means it could be really good for licensing to some other movie or show at some point.
Think about your dog and how it runs as you’re enjoying your weekend (whether its long or not). Then go get the music! And if you’re a twitterer – Follow Friday baby – @jodywhitesides.
