My mum asked me to send a couple of photos to her for a gift for her mother, and so I took a few of us and Miles. Heather's hair has always looked really nice. I'm still deciding if I like the pony tail on me. Miles is in his usual, "Don't mess," full glory.
I've been relaxing a bit today before I get back to work, and I've been watching a few Chris Cornell videos. I've not said much about him before this, but he's a pretty big effect on me over time. My first Soundgarden album was Superunknown, and I was in college at the time. There's nothing he has done that I haven't enjoyed (all except for some of his solo work).
Audioslave rocks (err, did rock). I won't go into it. Watch this video. You'll like it. It's old. But you'll like it.
I've decided to dump the "Tune of the Week" feature from this blog because it's just too much for me right now to be doing this every week. Plus, I've decided to start writing a bit more, and a blog that JUST features tunes is a little boring in my opinion. At least for me it is. My guess is I'll be posting on a somewhat less regular basis and that I'll be going back and forth between posting music and something I've written.
But don't worry. I won't be abandoning the tunes altogether. I mean, this stuff gets me going and I can't but help post some of it.
I read today that Ace Frehley's most recent CD, Anomaly, made into Billboard's Top 10 rock albums. I'm no expert on the subject, but KISS just doesn't sound the same to me without Space Ace. There was something unique to the sound of his guitar, and his leads were pretty darn good in my opinion. I wish he was still in the band. But Simmons and Stanley will keep playing (to make money), even if the only drummer and guitarist left on the planet are Lady Gaga's studio musicians. How many "Farewell" tours have their been, anyway?
This is "Outer Space" from Anomaly. It's fair. But I do dig his sound. And it needs to be BACK in KISS, dangit!
