My Top 5 Civic Arena/Mellon Arena Memories in Pittsburgh: The Pens Last Regular Series Game at the Civic Arena/Mellon Arena

1).
Watching the reunion tour of Robert Plant and Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin March 25, 1995 with Pittsburgh's own Rusted Root (winning the coveted opening slot for several dates) from the Mario Lemieux and a family friend's box I gratefully scored --- watching on with my now wife (who I had gone on a handful of dates at the time) and some friends of ours --- Hearing Robert Plant tell us that he's been on tour with a lot of bands in his time and being on tour with Rusted Root for this time made him feel compelled to tell us just how lucky Pittsburgh is to have them.



2).

All the wonderful moments watching Mario Lemieux on the ice including his 600th goal and an amazing game where the Pens where down by two goals with a little more than one minute left on the clock and Luc Robitaille and Mario tied the game and won in overtime (my girl and friend "Fat Tuesday" wanted to leave but I convinced them to stay because I had a feeling).

3).

Sydney Crosby

4).

Attending the first Fresh Fest featuring RUN DMC, Whodini, Kurtis Blow and the Fat Boys in 1984 as one of the only 14 year old white boys in or out of the Civic Arena

5).

As an eleven and twelve year old sitting at the glass (pounding on the glass) of the Civic Arena wathcing Paul Baxter, Pat Price, Randy Carlyle, Mike Bullard, George Ferguson and Pierre LaRouche - and then "sneaking" down stairs and hanging out outside the locker room after the game with a good friend of the family (close to the Pittsburgh Penguins) looking on ... (and in the summers being taught by some of these guys at the Ken Schinkle School of Hockey - where Pat Price gave me a lot of one-on-one time I'll never forget).

Christmas Barrette

Christmas barrette on a pretty fine girl
I was thinking about something I'd probably regret
Everyday weaving the holiday season tapestry
Living the scene we were lit up like a Christmas Tree
Everybody gathering to be seen to see the music at the next show
No matter where you came from or where tomorrow grows
We cross many roads and rivers - going under bended bare trees -
There's snow in the December air not just in the eastern seaboard
But where there's magic you can feel it in the air from the backstage
Musicians to the guys at the door - carrying equipment together -
Drinking a ton of free beer on the house like the night before -
Did you have a chance to see him in the living area upstairs at a
Naked and bruised piano he could easily handle out of tune -
What a star on the Christmas Tree - it looks like him, you & me
Just like the day before New Year's Eve in Chicago along the shore
Looking at the city --- Yeah, all have traveled to get here for the show
Through the magic in the air down hills and roads and under a canopy of
Bare winter trees -passed corners and open fields and tall buildings where
There's always writing on the wall - graffiti and all - we make the magic a
Few people share and see in a girl at a show with a Christmas barrette in her hair

one pay check away

prelude: what kind of music sells most in difficult economic times? i bet it was country maybe now rap music now - well they're both angry and like to bitch and really don't celebrate life like they used to when they recorded on front porches ---- (i keep myself busy so i have to find time to sit on the front or back porch and just pick away) --- anywway, here's an idea i had while driving through Sewickley Heights wondering what kinda song would sell today if i was just honest and true


one pay check away
i wish i were in Kentucky bluegrass
chasing my little momma instead
of working my weary bones on this shift
but hey i'm grateful to be a working man
so you won't hear me bitch the blues again

one pay check away
and China will own our asses
that's what i'm told everyday
in the new everyday media
where a vote for Palin likely means
you got that ring around your back
pocket of your Levis - yeah, some
of them in this world so watch yourself

one pay check away
i watch my dreams fade away
one by one like my hair turning gray
one by one i think it all over - "it's
on the rocks today -yeah, Maker's"
i drink it down like the money i make

one pay check away
i'll own my new Ford F150
and it's another day i can kick ass
i'm tired of you putting me down
so i won't let my name down
not anymore i am one paycheck away
from a new tomorrow where i don't borrow

one paycheck away
from the the USA staying a super power
with more baseball diamonds and books
that don't deny there are people who die
and there are people who plan and do kill
that's a fact and if i don't have to borrow
then i ain't bowing down or sayin' sorry

be my everyday

be my everyday

It's all a guess a gamble for so¤me change -
I see the best and brightest they live to be free
And those monster trees that grow
- are apples to apples
if they all go away we won't be able to breathe
For tommorrow never knows
Yeah, tomorrow never knows (3x)
REM is the way we all need to dream
but when it was automatic for the people
it made me want to scream
U 2 did it for a while
then they also found out too late
while they weren't at the guard
even music became all about hate
So best of the roses
Best of the roses (2x)
Everyday at 5 come hear me sing
I'll be singing tonite at the VFW
w/ my new band Random Photo
yeah we'll be taking photos of songs
that celebrate your life -
right or wrong black or gay -
we'll be singing songs about your life
Every day, babe, everyday
You're my everyday, babe
Be my everyday............

Take the Change

he said...
what happened to wilderness
the magnetic bends
everyone is so straight now
no tenderness to lend

she said...
think about tomorrow
you're not too late
give me your heart
i'll give you time to borrow

there's never nothing left
spill your cards on the table
who's reading what game
who's your cosmic dealer
(i'll) take away the change

remember you & me at Christmas
holding hands outside in the cold
doing shots of Maker's Mark bourbon
tongues leaving no question unposed
opening their presents they don't miss us

Music Theory: "My Fickle Friend"

Consonance and dissonance

Main article: Consonance and Dissonance
Consonance can be roughly defined as harmonies whose tones complement and increase each others' resonance, and dissonance as those which create more complex acoustical interactions (called 'beats'). A simplistic example is that of "pleasant" sounds versus "unpleasant" ones. Another manner of thinking about the relationship regards stability; dissonant harmonies are sometimes considered to be unstable and to "want to move" or "resolve" toward consonance. However, this is not to say that dissonance is undesirable. A composition made entirely of consonant harmonies may be pleasing to the ear and yet boring because there are no instabilities to be resolved.

Melody is often organized so as to interact with changing harmonies (sometimes called a chord progression) that accompany it, setting up consonance and dissonance. The art of melody writing depends heavily upon the choices of tones for their nonharmonic or harmonic character.
"Harmony" as used by music theorists can refer to any kind of simultaneity without a value judgement, in contrast with a more common usage of "in harmony" or "harmonious", which in technical language might be described as consonance.

Dynamics
Main article: Dynamics (music)
In music, dynamics normally refers to the softness or loudness of a sound or note, e.g. pianissimo or fortissimo. Until recently, most of these dynamics and signs were written in Italian, but recently are becoming written or translated into English. However, to every aspect of the execution of a given piece, either stylistic (staccato, legato etc.) or functional (velocity) are also known as dynamics. The term is also applied to the written or printed musical notation used to indicate dynamics.

Texture
Main article: Musical texture
Musical texture is the overall sound of a piece of music commonly described according to the number of and relationship between parts or lines of music: monophony, heterophony, polyphony, homophony, or monody. The perceived texture of a piece may also be affected by the timbre of the instruments, the number of instruments used, and the interval between each musical line, among other things.
Monophony is the texture of a melody heard only by itself. If a melody is accompanied by chords, the texture is homophony. In homophony, the melody is usually but not always voiced in the highest notes. A third texture, called polyphony, consists of several simultaneous melodies of equal importance.

Form or structure
Main article: Musical form
Form is a facet of music theory that explores the concept of musical syntax, on a local and global level. The syntax is often explained in terms of phrases and periods (for the local level) or sections or genre (for the global scale). Examples of common forms of Western music include the fugue, the invention, sonata-allegro, canon, strophic, theme and variations, and rondo. Popular Music often makes use of strophic form often in conjunction with Twelve bar blues.
