Argonne Rebels
Go, you Rebels!
The summers of youth are a distant memory
Hot days under the sun
Endless rehearsals
Drill after drill
But at night under the stadium lights
The screams and applause from the crowds
Had an electric energy
Oh those must’ve been some glorious days
There is an echo that travels throughout time
The wall of sound from brass
The thunder of drums
Flags waving in the wind
Rifles tossed in the air
But what reverberates aside from the music and sight
More than the color and pageantry
Is the...

Library of Hatred
Library of hatred disenfranchised by the womb of the populous
Oh, how I breath the words of true grit
Here they are expelled from the curtain of my tongue
Will you dance with my ideas behind the parallel circumstances?
Will you remember everything that has been taught to you?
Will you grab the goat by his ice-cold horns and take the ride into the stars?
The body crumbles but the will is magnificent
It is magnificent!

Why must Pain motivate- a "classic" or "popular" song??
Listen to the words of your favorite tune; captivating- how it sways your mood;
Listen to the words, to know- that the melody put a "spell" on you....
Later on- you "hear" the words; you lived some life- less dreamy blurs; your "catchers mitt"- your ears now perk; all along those words had hurt/"curves"....
the many songs- one overlooked, yet certainly could have overheard- and still the words flew overhead- like anywhere there's sky-...

Reverie in Warner Theatre
Listening in the dark
just Jason and his guitar
reminding me of all the times
I've been betrayed
by my own rhymes
and constructed phrases
I'm okay with it
in a crooked smile, shiny eyes
kind of way
All the love songs (and poetry)
do mean different things today
and while that may hurt
in the moments you realize they do
there's some comfort in that truth
Every note, clear as a bell
fills the hushed theatre
and finds me in my seat
turning pages of memories
while I etch this one

Mr. Zombie
grandstanding in fandom I rise to greet you
seeing the magic you twist
it blows like smoke in the fog
shadows dance and people writhe
in the stellar acid rain
rainbows flicker mushroom smiles
ingesting honesty it's righteous
bespelled by the music I dance
conjuring you from the stage
two witches meet
a sanitorium of metal
my cage felt I seethe
seeing the key inside you
your soul shimmers with darkness
suffer a witch not to live
so with the dark arts, I bless
lulling...

fermata
my heart not flesh but keys and wire
pins. hammers. strings gone still
reachin out for melody’s ghost
that hovers just beyond my grasp
I am a vessel overfilled
music trapped beneath my skin
desperate to escape thru fingertips
that tremble behind their prison walls
silence grows heavy with the mornin sun
unplayed notes collect under dust
I count days like measures in a score
where this fermata stretches past what I can bear

Overkill - Wrecking Your Neck
Welcome, Backstage, I’m Damian DeadLove. Tonights band is: Overkill. That’s right we’re talking about the boys from, Jersey. I’m a huge fan of this band they are by far my favorite thrash metal band.
Shout out to my brother, J.J.Burton, who got me into this band. This one’s for you.
The band formed in 1980 in New Jersey. They’re one of the most successful east coast thrash bands ever. They’ve been called the Motörhead of thrash, in fact the band name comes from the title of Motörhead’s second album.
The band has recorded 20 studio albums...

I've got an 80s beat riding my mind
so come on, baby...stroke me...
give me some bump & grind
...rub me...burn me...
baby, turn me...inside out & upside down
you're gonna need both hands now
grip me...flip me...hit me with your best shot
any way you want it...take on me...
I got an itch...& it's urgent
but I know you can reach it
spread me like your centerfold
trace fingers along my glistening crease
watch me freeze frame as you tease
I'll be lovin' every minute of it
all fired up...delirious
with your...

Without Music the World Dies
Each Auld Lang Sin
drinking to the absent,
one day, my dears,
your glasses will be empty
An urn awaiting our turn
may the ashes lie as stubble
on the statues of great people
Strumming until the drumming
became the faint rhythm of dying dreams,
emotional air-raids exhausted our hearts
until, finally, someone shot our plane from the sky
drinking to the absent,
one day, my dears,
your glasses will be empty
An urn awaiting our turn
may the ashes lie as stubble
on the statues of great people
Strumming until the drumming
became the faint rhythm of dying dreams,
emotional air-raids exhausted our hearts
until, finally, someone shot our plane from the sky

Pasta, Cannoli's & Italian Progressive Rock
Italy has been a fertile terrain for musical groups since the 1960’s. The traditional song format was slowly renewed, adding elements coming from England and the United States. These elements were rock n roll, rhythm & blues and beat.
It was with the success of the beat acts that brought many English acts to come to Italy. Numerous English bands came to Italy searching for fame & fortune. A handful of these musicians stayed here, giving birth to this new form of rock called “Progressive Rock”.
By the end of the decade a new tendency appeared with these newly...

The Doors - The End - 1967
Knowing things always get to an end
I felt like putting a record to play loud:
Art - Supernatural Fairy Tales - 1967
Knowing things always get all loud

Spooky Tooth - Sunshine Help Me - 1968
I felt like putting a record
I felt like putting

seeking Polaris
geek out on me, baby
you don't know what your...enthusiasm...does to me
it's a true Dazzler
makes this girl wanna go Rogue
& Storm your Nightcrawler Beast
stalk your Mirage & its Mystique
don't Blink, baby
I might wreak Havok on your ass
I'm gonna throw out the opening Gambit
then step back
licking my lips over your wild Wolverine
talk Sunfire sexy to me
I mean...here I am
eying you sideways behind my Domino mask
with my Sunspot eyes
make me Mimic a Banshee
& howl at your Collosus
come on, baby...
