• Pep Band Melodies

  Music stays with me. Especially when in high school we went over these songs time and time again. Not just to practice but to perform for basketball and football games. As much as I never felt athletic personally, i was a Bulldog. Our school pride was important to morale. Pep Band was also crucial to that…

• An American Music Legend

  Not two weeks ago I saw on my you-tube feed something about Toby Keith’s cancer diagnosis in an interview. I had to keep looking at the photo of him I couldn’t see him… it took a good while and actually watching the video to see it was in fact him. Although it was very seriously…

• Movies In Real-Life

  It is so hard to not like Kevin Bacon. I grew up with the original Footloose, I loved the music it is such a classic movie for my generation. However, he leans somewhat liberal in this thinking unfortunately. There is a movie he did in 2009 called, “Taking Chance.” This afternoon while I watched the…

• Singing… & Strawberries

  Music is good for the soul. God created music to be used for worshiping Him. It’s also a way to relate with family nowadays. Yesterday it was, for me and Selena, for certain. I have what now is an old CD. I am not certain the name of it only that the musician was Deena…

• My Conundrum

  Have you ever found yourself flat-footed with a preteen about lyrics versus actions from a rather beloved musician? Music has always been my passion from the time I became a fetus listening in my mothers womb. I literally heard my Dad’s voice and Mom’s fingers every Sunday morning and evening and Wednesday nights. It was…

• Christmas Tunes By Kids & Teachers

  Today is the first time in too many years since I watched my niece in a School Program. It’s been at least 3 years. Work was the excuse last year, but lack of coordination and communication around the supposed parents is to blame otherwise. I am trying to be nice about it too. This was…

• Movie Time Again

  This evening has been rather interesting. While I was watching the Biltmore Christmas another movie I was recording was debuting at Great American Christmas or Family. Movies were always a family oriented event for the Alsman side of my family. “Christmas Through the Ages” has really unnerved me. This channel has really evoked the Christian…

• Nostalgia & Christmas Music: Ms. Becky

  There are songs that stick in your memory. For some reason I had always thought of this song as a somewhat sad-sounding sound for Christmas. Of course it comes from the Peanuts cartoon. Becky had a lot of titles at church. Not to mention owning the Dairy Queen with her husband in their town. She…

• Movie Memories

  Tonight is the debut of “The Biltmore Christmas.” For weeks this show has been on commercials for the Christmas Hallmark season. As much as I have a love and hate relationship with Hallmark I love this show already. About two months ago I was invited after church to a friends house with other church friends;…

• What was my favorite subject in school. Writing Prompt

  Music, music and music. There was a moment in time where a few of us had to make a decision. We had to decide between Band or Choir we didn’t think we should have to make a decision between the two. For college purposes and classes we did have to make one, but it sucked…
