The night after I buried her, my brothers kidnapped me and brought me out to the Maple leaf bar to hear the Dirty dozen brass band. They dedicated this song to her. I had an out of body experience.
He wrote it because his kid fell out like a 50 story building in New York. Didn't know about your little girl, that is so sad. Not sure I could deal with it. Godspeed my friend
Anybody ever heard of math rock? I'm sure @LaSalleAve knows about it but I had never heard the term. Today I brought my new guitar over to my brothers house to show it to him. My 24 year ole nephew came by and played some kind of jazzy thing he had made up that was very good. Then were were talking and he said he was into math rock. He couldn't really define it so I googled it. math rockmusic Math rock is a very loosely defined genre of music. The term is hard to describe and often misused. However, one good way to describe it is as a style of rock that has almost no trace of folk or blues, which is the traditional definition of rock. Instead, the sound may have a loose, jazzy-like and spontaneous feeling, in contrast to thedirect and compelling sound of blues and folk. At the same time however, the music is also calculated, and instrumental riffs are often based on timed formulas. For example, a guitar riff may repeat a sequence of five quarter-notes over 4/4 time signature, thus giving the listener an overall feeling of chaos, in spite of the riffs rigid structure. The genre is gaining more influence, especially in the Los Angeles area. Bands like The Blood Brothers, Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower, and An Albatross are some of the most famous math rock bands. I found some songs on youtube and listened to 3 or 4. Some of them started out with really good opening riffs but then they just kept repeating the same riff over and over and over. Like if they had recorded about 30 seconds and then just put it all in a loop.
With my girl, it was a very rare problem that stopped blood flow through the umbilical cord...just one of those things. Life isn't a guarantee, it's a gift.
I'm sorry for your loss. I knew about Eric Clapton's son and that Tears from Heaven was about it. Even though it's a great song I don't like to listen to it for that reason.
