CRS Week

Dylan — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 18:26:51 +0000

This week is a weird one in Nashville. It is the week that country music radio stations are taken around town to a lot of dog and pony shows. They are wined and dined and seranaded by all the labels. There are huge stars here, mixed in with dozens of hopefuls. Tonight I’m heading out to the Renaissance Hotel to hear a showcase anchored by Billy Dean. It will be really good to see him again – it’s been years.

Lovers Serenade

For Valentine’s Day, I serenaded my girlfriend from the front yard of her house after she got home from work. I’ve never done anything like that before. It was pretty cool. She loved it, especially since we didn’t get to spend the together, as she had to work all day and has an early shift tomorrow.

No Grammy Surprises

Dylan — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 05:30:36 +0000

The Grammys were so predictable. I picked every winner except for Lady Antebellum. I don’t like that group all that much, and let my personal distaste for them cloud my judgement.

The show was too long and I got bored with it. They need to do something different next year if they want to keep the young viewers coming back to watch it.

Wrong Time

Dylan — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 04:38:55 +0000

Have you ever missed a show because of the wrong time zone? I’m about sick to death of having to always subtract an hour from advertised show times because I happen to live in the Central Time Zone. Sorry East Coast, but the whole world does not revolve around your sense of time and the Eastern Time Zone.

In today’s advanced technology environment, why can’t the cable promos adjust for who is watching and what time zone they live in? I’m just saying . . .

Favorite Christmas Song?

Dylan — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 18:42:00 +0000

There are a lot of Christmas songs that I really like. They are soothing and bring forth lots of good memories from childhood holidays and pageants. Then again, there are some songs that I am sick of hearing. They are overplayed and worn out. Like the Grandma got run over by a Reindeer song. It is cute the first few times you hear it and then maybe once or twice a year after that. But to hear it 2-3 times every day for a month is beyond annoying.

So a good buddy asked me to name my favorite Christmas song on his Facebook page. I think overall, the “Little Drummer Boy” is my top favorite, followed by “Silent Night.”

Four Days of Food and Song

Dylan — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 01:45:43 +0000

I’m really glad that Thanksgiving always falls on a Thursday. That means that we get a long weekend off from school or work. That means that we have 4 days to eat huge dinner and all the leftovers. That means we can go out downtown for a kickass Friday night and Saturday night with a changed up crowd. A lot of the kids have gone home from here for the holiday, but then again, a lot of kids have come home to here and are out looking for a good time.

Friday Night All Right

Dylan — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 21:49:22 +0000

Weekends around here will be rocking. Even week nights. We have all kinds of way cool shows happening all month. Not even a good reason for it. Just incredibly lucky good timing for music fans.

Where Did the Sun Go?

Dylan — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 16:26:08 +0000

Thank God my job does not require me to work outside in the elements. Or worse, whether I work or not being dependent upon the lack of rain. The guys who work construction, home repairs, land surveyors and road crews all need sunny days to get their work done. And their paychecks depend on it.

We have had 16 straight days of rain. I don’t think I could go 16 days without a paycheck.

New Sheets

Dylan — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:20:03 +0000

I’m the first to admit that I have almost no domestic skills. I hate doing laundry. I hate cleaning the bathroom. And I hate doing dishes every night.

My laundry is probably the hardest thing to keep up with. There have been situations where the underwear and socks came out pink. There have been countless single socks that have no mate. And today my sheets came out with a huge tear along the side of the bottom sheet.

So this afternoon I will be shopping for new sheets.
