Blog Mission, In Simple Terms

"I'm a road-runner, baby." Jr. Walker
I'm a road-runner running and writing a blog consisting of run~on sentences about running while sharing a deep concentration with the music in my ears, so that one day my boys, Elijah and Levi, will be able to read up and keep it real; Run~ons just may be the most effective way to convey my health seeking mission to people who don't know me or do, but then I pretty much like the idea that language/structure can be as playful as the subject itself, plus the reader may decide that running~on in a run~on sentence kind~of~way, might be beneficial to him or her that is right now, as of this moment here, basically undiscovered or unawakened.

The blog used to be heavily augmented by my facebook page which featured SOTD (song of the day), however I don't have the time to do that anymore; the blog has also taken on a very flexible schedule of it's own where I closely examine pretty much anything I want, in my own special way, something that piqued my interest during the previous month; if it piques yours, well, that would be pretty cool, too.

Screaming Trees ~ MOTM Musicians of the Month



So, here's a run~on sentence about this months' Musician of the month and I am happy to announce this grungy 90's band that I have loved for years the Screaming Trees with their undeniably west coast sounds and not those of the aimless laid back variety but of a new style that was opened up when Nirvana broke in hard and in squeezed the Trees with an edgier than usual sound differing their 80's roots as skater music with more of that laid~back stoner psyche they welcomed change as good artists do and because I get that change and what inspires it and what compels it and researching briefly what projects they have found themselves in over the years it is clear that these fellas dig music period {ie Bomb The Bass} but there is nothing like the monster power chords of the early nineties and stringing together those pinnacle chops in three BIG changes comes a mega song like none other during particularly great practices and with Beck~like ebbs the Trees have it and let me say this because I mean it what grunge did to 80's rock was amp it up without diminishing the 80's vocal quality it leveled it so that it was 90's ready and now that we're not in the 90's it sounds classic in that grungy sort of way and the hair from the 80's changed only slightly and by that i mean less shampooing for the grunge folks and I get that too because when you have long hair you don't need to wash it everyday (partly because it's a hassle and partly because it looks cleaner for longer periods of time) lol anyway so I run to the Screaming Trees and I can do that because it has that epic from start~to~finish 90's muscle that pushes.
