Cold and blustery
Winter winds, snow, and the sea
Lighthouse standing strong

This song came on Pandora this morning. It got me thinking about the massive winter storms that roll across the great lakes and the oceans. It inspired this Haiku.

Haiku – 42
Age speckles your skin
Creases your brow, adds worry
Dots and lines your face

Another birthday milestone is upon me. I thought I had to say a bit about it.

Haiku – The Here and Now
Morning has arrived
Can’t wake up, groggy and tired
A rough way to start
+
Sometimes a day at the beach is the only thing that will help. Too bad I don’t live near one. I can go there with this song though. I hope it takes you away as well.

Like a wave, the music flows
A soft gentle ease

Off to music class
My son and I together
Happy bonding time

Haiku – The “Simplicity” Run
A hot night out there
Jamming hard to new Tesla
2 miles – not easy
•
Got the new Tesla CD a few days ago.
I have to say, the boys still have it. Sounding great as usual. 3rd time listening to it tonight. Just doesn’t get old. If you haven’t gotten it see the link below. They just don’t put out bad music. Oh, solid run by the way, tough, but worth it.
From the opening Track MP3 to the explosive Time Bomb the music takes the listener on a journey with songs about the up and downs of life. The lighthearted Cross My Heart tells the story of a musician on the road proclaiming one’s commitment to love, while the songs Rise And Fall and So Divine speak of the supernatural and the loss of special friends. Songs like Flip Side and Life Is A River give a lyrical look at the dualities of life.Simplicity by Tesla marks the return to their home grown roots from one of America’s true rock and roll bands.

Time change, longer days, warmer days, so much heading our way. Can’t wait till this winter ends. Who’s with me? Done with winter or do you need just a little bit more?

Haiku – Hot for Teacher
He watches her teach
With youthful innocent eyes
Day dream during class
‡
When I saw the prompt for the day the song “Hot for Teacher” by Van Halen popped into my mind. I tried to keep the Haiku classy, but still give off that “Hot for Teacher” vibe. Anyway, just wanted to let you guys know where the inspiration for this one came from.

Concert Review Haiku: Iron Maiden and Megadeth
2 bands of legend
Sharing the stage together
An awesome concert
†
Got to say, great, great show. Megadeth really brought it. Nice to finally see them live. Iron Maiden was just as great as the last two times I saw them, plus I could see them better at this concert and hear them better as well. About the only beef I had about the whole night, other than the fact I was tired, was Maiden’s set list was exact to the one I saw in Charlotte a year or so ago. Would have been nice to hear a few songs I haven’t heard live before. Minor complaints because Iron Maiden and Megadeth really poured their heart and soul into this show. They are looking older, but they still have the energy to keep this kind of music going.

Haiku – Digging on Dylan
Cool late August night
Speakers blast, Bob Dylan tunes
Song-writing poet

I got myself back into a Dylan mood recently and I was just out cruising after a long day, jamming to some of his music, when I came up with this Haiku. Great music to listen to.

Haiku – Journey
A classic rock band
Great music and smooth vocals
The sound of my youth
++++
New School
vs.
Old School
++++
I will always lean to the Steve Perry years because that is what I know and grew up on, but that song Resonate is pretty solid. I hadn’t heard it before I worked on this post and wound up listening to it a few times. Really, really, good song – solid like they have always been even with a new lead singer.
So, your call, New School or Old School, what’s your choice?

Haiku – Warrant
Hair Metal, maybe?
Good, solid, and fun music
You can’t beat this group
•
Maybe this group isn’t a guy’s go to choice, understand that completely. There is something about them though that still sounds good to me – except “Cherry Pie”. They should really ban that song from ever being played – a slight tarnish on a good band’s legacy. Still digging this song – love a good power ballad.
