The Day When I Saw Green Day
While I got into Green Day relatively late, I did get to GelreDome venue for my first Green Day concert on time. That didn't stop me from still almost not getting to see them at all, but I digress. I did see them and it was awesome. So, with emotions still fresh from that day, I wanted to create a little microcosm of why I love this band, my rocky road towards finally getting to see them live and, of course, what an absolutely epic of an experience a Green Day concert is.

The Old Radio's Song
The sun dipped below the horizon, casting the old summer house in a warm, golden glow. Emily stood at the edge of the driveway, the gravel crunching under her feet. It had been years since she’d been here, yet every detail was etched in her memory—the way the trees framed the house, the creak of the porch swing, the scent of pine and earth. This place held the echoes of her childhood, and now, in the wake of her grandmother's passing, it beckoned her back.

Meet Deadbeat Daycare A Dynamic Band Based In Chicago
Picture this. You’re in high school sitting at the lunch table with your best friend and contemplating what a great idea playing music together would be. So, you start the band and realize that you need a drummer and a name. You find the drummer. You decide on a name that is unlike any other. You start writing music in one member’s garage and realize that you need a bass player to round things out. You find a seasoned bass player who is a fit, and suddenly it all makes sense. That’s the story. I am just the messenger. That’s Deadbeat Daycare’s story and they’re not only sticking to it, but they’re ready to rock your world as they start to ramp up their live shows, hitting as many local venues as they can this summer. Most recently, they performed at the notable Brudder's Bar and Burlington Bar in Chicago. The band is ready to kick it into high gear since they are all now finished with college.

Songs For The Orange One. Content Warning.
Introduction After the thirty-four guilty verdicts for the mendacious misogynist and habitual bankrupt and cheat and thought I put together a short playlist for the occasion, with some notes on the songs and their sources.

Crossing Something Off My Bucket List
I do not attend many concerts - despite my adoration for them. Big or small. However, I have been wanting to watch Arctic Monkeys perform live for probably a decade now. Although the financial aspect of accomplishing this was not shy at all, I feel there are some life experiences worth the expense.

Coda Records - Rare And Legal Bootlegs
Introduction A bootlegger is someone who sells illegal goods. Today, bootleggers are most likely to sell pirated movies or music. This word comes from bootleg and, in particular, the trick of hiding a flask inside a boot. Bootleggers smuggle illegal things, and sometimes legal goods too, in order to avoid paying taxes.
