Summer is approaching and that means outdoor concerts and cranking up the music while you drive around. I’m very excited for summer to start because I feel like there are songs and bands that are better to listen to during the summer rather than winter, or even when it’s raining compared to being sunny out. I feel like every song and every band has an atmosphere that their music works better in. I listen to Way To Start This by The Maddigans and I imagine being at an outdoor concert. I listen to Armistice and imagine being in one of those cool rock clubs that have surprise concerts. Same with Late Nite Reading. The first lines of Walk of Shame by Finding the Warren are “sitting there in your track tshirt, take in the morning dusk.”. These lyrics send me back to sitting on my porch, watching the the sunrise while I listened to my ipod. I also like listening to songs that don’t fit the mood of the day. I listened to High Life Scenery by The Rocket Summer the other day while walking through the rain. I felt like the upbeat sound of the music with the calming, dreary look of the environment was some how relaxing. All these bands get me excited for the summer and I’m excited to find some new music. Who are you listening to as you roll down your windows and take off to the pool, beach, or friends house for a 24 hour call of duty marathon? Let us know. Thanks again to all of our readers. I’ll give a shout out to my fellow blogger Eric Sylvester who is moving up in the world of writing. If you haven’t checked it out and want to read some random thoughts check out Sylvester Says and another inspiration of mine, who Mr. Sylvester turned me on to, Chris Cocca. Both of these guys are quite hilarious and an inspiration to me. Check them out and check us out too.
