To put it simply, music moves people. This blog is a collection of songs to move to, in some fashion or another. Whether it's physical - running, dancing, driving or what have you - or mental, music plays a tremendous role in many peoples' day to day lives. Some of these songs you'll probably have heard. Others will be completely new to you. Others still may be rediscoveries. My hope is to bring you a song each day that is not only enjoyable to listen to, but may also make your day just a little better.
Last night, while sitting at Howling Wolf’s bar, a debonair man in a spotted green bow tie walked in to ask what time the bar closes, and if it’s the same time for all of Salem. He looked so out-of-place that I decided to watch him leave, run across the street and connect with a group of extremely well dressed people, all while waving his arms in Howling Wolf’s direction. Right after seeing a woman in an elegant, red dress, I decided people this well dressed need somebody to hold the door open for them. So I ran up and held the door for everybody, warmly welcoming everybody. Somebody pointed at the woman in the red dress, saying “she’s the bride!” And I was like, “okay, cool, congratulations!”
Somebody walks by me in a hat that looks familiar, then another person walks by who I swear I know. After everybody is inside, I bound back to the bar to ask Matthew Royal and Chris Cocozella if that person is, yes, it’s Ted Leo, they’re already talking to him. The man in the hat turns out to be Thor Harris, the drummer from Shearwater and the woman getting married, in the red dress, is Kim Burke from Shearwater. Most people thought I was the owner by how I welcomed everybody. Ted said there are worse pictures of him online, but whether or not that’s true, it sort of is now.
This was probably the most surreal moment of my life.
