Single-handedly solving nothing

My Life Is A Song #90

January 6, 2017 by acrockofschmidt 2 Comments

I’m going to tell you a short story that I am all but sure is wrong.  Memories are like that a lot.  But perhaps it’s the feelings more than the facts that make them important. When I was a kid I had an uncle who was the quintessential cool uncle.  He was single, wealthy, at […]

My Life Is A Song #89

December 30, 2016 by acrockofschmidt 2 Comments

Is there anything better than cock rock bands channeling their inner classical musician?  Sure, The Beatles did the whole strings section thing and made rock music dignified, but when a cheesy hard rock band does it the results are truly magical.  Giggle-worthy, yes, but magical. Now, if that band happens to be a relatively obscure […]

My Life Is A Song #80

Back in January when David Bowie died, I almost altered my publication schedule in hopes of capitalizing on the attention his death was getting in the media.  I chose not to because it probably wouldn’t have worked but also because it seemed a cheap stunt. I enjoy David Bowie’s music and can list off a […]

My Life Is A Song #68

August 5, 2016 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

If I continue with this music series until I die and that moment of death occurs at a respectable long life age like say 87, I doubt I’ll ever mention a song quite as odd or obscure as this one.  You most definitely won’t hear it on the radio.  The fact I even know about […]

My Life Is A Song #66

Pink Floyd is an incredible band.  They have created some of the most phenomenal rock music in all of history.  The Wall is arguably the greatest rock opera of all time.  However, if you were like me and raised on top 40 radio a few decades ago (or even Classic Rock radio more recently) your […]
