There is a light that never goes out

I've got 3 poems from 3 people who aren't me this time!  Very exciting.

The Culprits - 1513

Disclaimer: I do not have expressed permission by this band to upload this album, however after years of looking for it and offering to buy it from them (with no response), I got lucky one night on soul seek (after a certain jerk "lost" my favorite cd). If anyone in The Culprits wants me to take this album down I will. If you like this album, the follow up "Nora" is available on itunes.

I gotta say, if it weren't for this album, I probably wouldn't have gotten to punk like I did. When I was about 14, I was straight edge and had been into punk for a few years, with some dabbling in the realm of hardcore. One night at a youth group event on the beach, two major things impacted my life. First, I met a girl who led me on until I was 20 and had moved from Melbourne. More importantly and more meaningful than anything I had with that girl, I heard this CD.

Why I started this blog

I started this blog primarily to share writing, and music from myself and others as well as thoughts on topics like religion and education.  Lastly, I've been wanting an outlet for the last couple years of some of the better stories I have about growing up.

If you are reading this blog and I don't know you, feel free to still share, I'll have my email address up and I would be happy to post your stuff.  If you would like a review of music, send me some mp3's and I'll get to reviewing.
