"Born On The Fifth Of November" by Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine There was November in your eyes There'd be no pennies for the guys There were fireworks over London But you weren't among them anymore When it got darker the nightmares came I lit a sparkler to write your name There were fireworks over London You weren't among them anymore Because you're too beautiful Gunpowder is louder that's all You should never play with fireworks You might get your fingers burned The blue touch paper brings a touch of violence But you'll never learn Because you're too beautiful Gunpowder is louder that's all Beautiful That's what the fireworks are for Yes, you're beautiful You're so beautiful Too beautiful for such an ugly world Tags: carter usm, holidays, lyrics

There were some people who didn't respond that I still enjoy reading, so I'm assuming they either missed my poll, or don't like me. If you're one of those who ended up cut and desperately want to be uncut, let me know here. I may have made some goofs. Tags: polls, websites, wedding

I read this morning that the mayor of Englewood (a suburb of Denver) suddenly passed away yesterday. This makes me a little sad, actually, because she was the first mayor I'd ever met and seemed like such a sweet person. She was 54. Many months ago, Melissa and I went to a big band performance at the Englewood Civic Center -- a beautiful complex in the middle of town dedicated to raising the awareness of the arts in that community -- and afterwards we were approached by a tiny woman who asked us what we were covering (she noticed our press badges). We told her why we were there, and she introduced herself as the Mayor of Englewood. She chatted with us a bit. As the article points out, she used to be the owner of a pottery store with her husband, and she became very active in Englewood schools teaching art. Recently, she was instrumental in obtaining a $1 million grant to teach mathematics through art. I think that somehow we lost one of the good ones. In the next couple of weeks I'll be scheduled to sit down and interview John Hickenlooper, the mayor of Denver, so I guess I've had mayors on the mind. Tags: deaths, englewood, mayors

We saw the Polyphonic Spree in concert again last Sunday. It was a mind-blowing show, a truly moving experience to everyone in the venue. If they ever come anywhere near you, go see them -- even if you've never heard their stuff. A couple of fun highlights: - Tim DeLaughter noticed a person taking pictures with his little camera, so he beckoned for it, took the camera from him, and proceeded to take a bunch of photos of himself, the spree, and the audience before returning it. - During the first encore, Tim was so impressed with the energy of a man up front (who had been dancing and singing along all night) that he pulled him up on stage and had him sing the final chorus of "Hold Me Now" as a duet. (See more about this in my upcoming article.) - Tim came down into the audience a couple of different times to sing. At one point, he announced that the audience was the show and the Spree was the audience, and he encouraged us to sing louder to entertain the group (who were still onstage, obviously). - The bulk of the show contained material from their new album The Fragile Army, and they wore the accompanying uniforms that looked militaristic in nature, but contained hearts sewn on them. At the beginning of the encore, the re-emerged wearing their now iconic white robes with colored hems. The went back to the stage by walking through the audience, not by coming from the stage. This meant that all 22 of them had to change, walk around the back of the theatre, and re-enter it from the front door to come inside behind the crowd. What must that have looked like to people driving by at the time?? - Of course we met him after the show. This time we brought our own photographer: http://www.rockymountainjazz.com/photos/spree/5%20star/index.htmlTags: colorado music buzz, concerts, gothic theatre, photos, polyphonic spree, reviews
