this will no doubt be taken down relatively shortly.

there was recently some closure on one of the most compelling stories of the rock era.

jimi's tribute to his biggest influence remains the most fitting eulogy to the man who was arguably the most important guitarist the world has ever seen. it's unfortunate that his family still won't allow his music to be streamed on the internet - but we can hear the man's own interpretation of the track that was written to mourn his own death.

in the end, dick dale outlived jimi hendrix by nearly 50 years.

but, he's not still here, anymore.

the world is changing.

this is the actual first post to this site, dated correctly.

this is the music review blog - concert reviews, album reviews and general music criticism. no politics. i will be archiving youtube discussions here, too - edited for brevity. the site is unlikely to be current for some time, but it should house many historical reviews as i work through the alter-reality. it will also act as a front end for the appspot site on the side.

i didn't want to do this, but i feel i have to do it as i work through the alter-reality...

so, if you always liked my music reviews, but don't like my politics, this is the blog for you.

i'm only returning to my old handle due to the fact that i'm already using the others. i never intended for the association to stick, but i suppose it has.

don't tell the koala central command.
