Songs for Taylor?

Ok, I was bored, and thought to myself today... what kind of songs would Taylor do REALLY well on his tour? I was listening to my iPod, and chose some from there. It's quite a long list, but if you have anything to add to it... go ahead! I'll update it and what not, maybe we can get him to play these at some of his shows? WOOO! Some of them he's already done, but I'm basically shooting for, "What would be the best show?"

~ "Get Up" - James Brown
~ "Let's Get It On" - Marvin Gaye
~ "Give Up The Funk" - George Clinton & Parliament Funk
~ "Emotional Rescue" - The Rolling Stones
~ "Turn The Page" - Bob Seger
~ "I've Got Dreams" - Otis Redding
~ "Give It To Me Baby" - Rick James
~ "Rosie" - Jackson Browne
~ "What'd I Say" - Ray Charles
~ "Wonderful Tonight" - Eric Clapton
~ "The Fall" - Taylor Hicks
~ "Use Me" - Bill Withers
~ "Just Wait" - Blues Traveler
~ "Carolina Blues" - Blues Traveler
~ "When A Man Loves A Woman" - Percy Sledge
~ "You Sexy Thinkg" - Hot Chocolate
~ "Compared To What" - Mya
~ "Somehow" - Taylor Hicks
~ "In Your Time" - Taylor Hicks

All those are my personal opinions, comment on what you think would be a great Cover for Taylor :D

"Make It Do What It Do"

Here are the links to the videos and pictures I took at the concert. Took me awhile to get them posted up, but it's worth the wait. And just as a warning, keep your volume at a descent level, (some of the videos, I get kinda loud).

- there is 8 total Concert Videos, one or two of them might take awhile to process... but they will all eventually be up :)

Where Did This Come From?!?!


Well well well... I've put off listening to any other of the American Idols. I recently took a trip over to Elliot's myspace and had a quick gander. "DAM THAT MAN SOUNDS GOOD!" He honestly came as a shock to me, maybe not to you. But remember, I didn't watch AI.

He's got some great sounding soul in his music. I was anti-anyonebuttaylor, basically shutting out all other music artists. But come this Tuesday, I will have purchased Elliot Yamin's new CD along with Modest Mouse. I'm glad some good sound is finally coming from AI. Let's hope that at least Elliot here can beat out Daughtry... (I'm still anti-chris, lol)

The Day of the Harp




Just the other day, while shopping for a birthday present for a friend's daughter, I came across a harmonica. Of course it was for ages 4+ considering I was in the toy aisle. It came with a "How-To" book as well. So... I went along my way, and decided... "What the hell! Why not?!" So I bought the damn thing. Heck, maybe I can learn a few chords. I have been messing around with it and found out a few things:

~ I can play it with my nose
~ I learned this really cool "wah-wah" sound
~ I copied one of Taylor's solos... (it was one chord, really easy)
~ And I learned about the "blow & draw"

hmmmm... about life....


Today, I felt like typing up my t-shirt. I wish I could take credit for this amazing piece of work. I did draw it onto the computer or type it, or whatever. But the original Design and Phrase comes from a shirt I bought... pretty amazing I thought.

New Changes...

I added a playlist so we can listen to some music. It's my personal Playlist, so if you want a certain song on, go ahead and request. Music is set at random, and I'm still working on a few kinks... so bare with me :)

Any ideas for this place? I'll take anything! Leave a comment or e-mail me : )

Ode to the Soul Patrol

Our man has locks of Gray hair
But you can tell we don't care
Taylor Hicks is a soul man
and we'll follow him to the very end
We buy a new bra for every show
you probly think we're a bunch of hoes
so you can stick it in your hole
'cause we're the gosh damned Soul Patrol

we get upset over little things
but we can't help if we've got little brains
so someone help us, please
we're begging you on our knees
Now we've all joined T.H.A.
and we go to the meetings everyday

But there's something about him
that makes us stalk him
i think its that harp that he blows
he even does it with his nose
We'd all jump on Taylor if we could
But he'd just lay there and say 'Word'

most of us get pretty fangirly
probly makes Taylor wanna go hurl-y
but, ya know? i think that's ok...
We'll put it in a bag and sell it on E-bay
Taylor has a buddy named Roger
Howdy-ho How'd it go? MR.Roger!
We know Tay likes the Po-tay-to
He uses them when hes ready to go

It's large and in charge of the show
It aint nothin' but a Soul Pole
we sit around and watch videos everyday
of that hot-ass guitar lickin' Tay
So here's the thing that you need to know
We're the gosh damned SOUL PATROL!!
