I have always wanted to play a musical instrument but never put the time in. That may be a slight factor in my love for sequenced computer music, the programming relieves my more classical inadequacies. I received a harmonica as a gift recently and am really excited to learn, although it will probably have to wait until law school is done. I have had several people offer me lessons, so the forecast looks good. What I want from you is your best harmonica based tracks... MORE
I have a theory about why so many people on Mog have Led Zeppelin at the top of the list in their libraries. It's scarcity: you can't buy online, so when someone lends you CDs, or whatever, you rip them all just in case.I love the clicky thing on this. And all the classic Zep stuff: lovely guitar bits followed by the the most powerful power breaks ever, all set against a background of complete nonsense (I guess you have to put it in its historical context and assume they d...

So, I've been picking on my dad's old Gibson acoustic guitar for a couple of months now, and I finally found a free weekend where I can stop worrying about maintaining a 3.0 GPR to take a lesson. I thought that I had developed the callouses necessary to play guitar and that the lesson would just be for learning, not some kind of ritual self-sacrifice. Boy, was I wrong.

The ongoing technological bumps with Mog-o-matic indexing have their own charm. My "last played" songs have been stuck in the middle of a brief Led Zeppelin binge for about a week.

It seems like if you went over and read all their books, listened to all their music, watched all their movies, and checked all their web bookmarks, they'd be c... MORE
If I were ever to be a percussionist/drummer, there's one pinnacle for me to emulate:
John Bonham.
Boundless energy, bottomless well of variation and rhythm, and as expressive as a drummer has ever been...
Of course there are others who are good - across many genres and ages... but John's style, prowess, and execution have not been rivaled (for me, at least).
His son's awesome, too!
It's Saturday night and you're getting ready to go out. What's your favorite Saturday night record?
If I had to pick one record, which is exactly what I'm asking you to do, I'd choose Led Zeppelin II. To say that this record absolutely rocks is an understatement and it always gets me pumped. So it's Saturday night and Zep is kicking it on the stereo. Have a great night!
