2010? Time flies. On NYE, so did a car.

January 2, 2010

Dear Randy Meisner,  Don Henley and Glenn Frey:

Thank you for being The Eagles and delivering great music all these years, especially for co-writing the song, “Take It To The Limits.”  This is just one of your many hits that is still inspirational today; as the 1975 release of you singing ”put me on a highway, show me a sign and take it to the limit one more time,” 35 years later, Red Bull put Travis Pastrana on a pier, showed him a barge, and took NYE to NO limits for the third time.  I witnessed the world record jump in a car get shattered from Long Beach, and this is the song came on in my head that made for perfect soundtrack to my NYE.  It’s 2010, people around here would say it was “SO SICK!”  May your music and Travis Pastrana’s flying car be forever awesome.

Peace, Jives, A New Year & No Limits,

Happy New Year… may the new decade be filled with great music, world records, and no limits.  If you missed Red Bull: New Year, No Limits on ESPN and you want a taste of the experience, watch the video below and listen to The Eagles while you watch it.

Songs that say “Bye 2009, Hello 2010″

December 31, 2009

“It’s the end of the year, but it’s not too late to start again. ”  That’s what Stillwater’s Other Lives says in “End Of The Year.” If the last week of December was compressed into a very moving six 1/2 minute film… this is the song that would dominate the soundtrack.  Visualize what you please. The latest on Other Lives via their blog indicates we should look out for their recently-shot music video for upcoming release “Dust Bowl Drone.”  All we have so far are a few screen grabs that show a piano and stringed instruments in various fields laced with a bit of snow, but that and their latest album is still enough to get excited for what Other Lives will release in 2010.
