I'm feeling nostalgic for music from a bygone era:


These are some of the songs of my youth that shaped the music I listen to and play today... not to mention forming my personality (for better or worse)

Novus Ordo Seclorum

Knowledge is power... has been since time eternal. Arcane knowledge is thereby ultimate power and can
therefore lead to ultimate corruption. Wisdom (and the experience that comes with age) is a serum for corruption.
Perhaps that is why there are so many Old Men with Arcane knowledge and so few young ones...

So in keeping with the 'theme' of this thread here is another

Just because...

its Friday. The week is over and, as it happens often these days, I'm left wondering why the hell am I still working a high stress job at a Fortune 50 company. I know the answer... I like the money and I'm not ready to or in the position to retire yet.

So instead of going out and becoming a homicidal axe murderer...

I present to you my remedy (seriously... there is nothing better than sex, drugs [yeah not since the '80s for me even though "The Reefer" is legal in my state now], and f*&king head smashing / banging METAAAAAAL).

Yeah brother I need me a DIMEBAG (as in Dimebag Darrell)!:

Ok... whew... Man I needed that. Well now that I've stabilized time to dial it back a notch.
and finally...

PEACE!

Dang, Arcane, I never took you for an old metalhead!

Good one, Blue!

Anybody else remember these guys?




And in keeping with the theme and title of this thread, here's some acoustic Hot Tuna ...

Awesome guys! That is the spirit of this thread... and it doesn't have to be music. Blue when I was younger I loved listening to John Prine. My musical tastes shifted from country / folk (having been raised in Montana that is about all we could listen to on the radio) to rock about the time that John started to become an artist. Regardless this is a great just because... love the Billy Bob story.

Aged - Hot Tuna: Just Because... LMAO awesome! I don't think I've ever heard that before. Definitely blues and that is still one of my favorite genres to play. I was never good at finger pickin like that though. Thanks for sharing.

Just because ...

I bought a ukulele and I'm having fun learning to play it.

First, say hello to my little friend:



.....

Jake Shimabukuro playing While my guitar gently weeps

There's a YouTube of him with the amazing Tommy Emmanuel.
Both of these guys are crazy good.

Bohemian Rhapsody on ukulele

.....

Brittni Paiva playing Santana's Europa

There's also of YouTube of her with Santana playing Samba Pa Ti.
Her version of Ellie Goulding's Lights
is also pretty cool (lots of cool use of loopers).


.....

James Hill and his imaginary band playing Michael Jackson's Billie Jean.

and, a little Canadian aloha music -Smash the window/St. Anne's Reel

.....

The legendary George Formby playing Why don't women like me?

and

When I'm cleaning windows


and finally ...


Joe Brown closes the Concert for George with I'll see you in my dreams

I had almost every issue of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers. But due to the time in my life in which they were mine... I cannot remember any of the plot lines. LOL

Ah yes... some of the best times I'll never remember...


Nice Uke Aged.

When this song would come on WHFS during my drive home, it made it nearly tolerable. Damn I miss that station.

I've got too much time on my hands which by the way isn't really true. You might wonder why is that Arcane? We know you aren't a Blue Collar Man... in fact if one was to look into a Crystal Ball you might be surprised what you see.

HA! Luckily you can't do that. So I'll share with you what's happening lately. You'll have to read between the lines but With Arms Wide Open I've definitely experienced a change... and man is it time consuming. If that wasn't enough I do really have a full-time job although I'd like to Take this Job and Shove it. Of course I can't do that because for most of my working life I felt like Tennessee Ernie Ford in 16 Tons. So I have to keep working or I'd have a Date With Poverty... and that just makes me want to A Hole to Hide in.

So there you go...
