Day 10 - Blind Melon

This is not so much about the artwork as it will be about the music. Blind Melon was an amazing band. My musical ignorance never ceases to amaze me. It seems if we only look to the surface, we miss SO much. The radio is full of so much crap I can't believe it. I spend a good part of my days in the car driving around, and I listen to the radio. Any given day I will hear the same song over and over and over and OVER again. No depth, very little change. MAYBE once a day will I hear a song that doesn't make me want to set the radio on fire. Blind Melon. Their only "hit" was "No Rain". Does not encompass the band as a whole in even the slightest margin! I'm listening to a song now..."Mother". It is amazing. I've never heard it before and it is over 15 years old. I'm doing this project not only to keep my imagination afloat but to expand and explore a depth of music that is so lacking. 

"The Offering" So many give all that they have so that others may benefit. Will anyone read this blog(Besides Elizabeth, I love you!). Probably not. I may show it to my children one day, a testament to what I once was.

No B-Side tonight. Tomorrow should be a fun day (a certain "letter" went out at work and is causing quite the stir!)
