Life is short
Filled with stuff
Don't know what for
I ain't had enough
I learned all I know
By the age of 9
But I could better myself
If I could only find
Some new kind of kick
Something I ain't had
Some new kind of buzz
I wanna go hog mad
"Oh, I love to play on the road. I really love it." - Johnny Winter. Born this day in 1944. Checked out while on tour at age 70 in 2014. He talked it. He walked it.
"I love classical music and that had a big influence on me. When you play a classical record I like the tension in that kind of music. That’s what I wanted to do with my riffs.

I wanted to do that with rock." - Tony Iommi, born this day in 1948.
"My music is homegrown from the garden of New Orleans. Music is everything to me short of breathing." - Allen Toussaint

When I get to the bottom
I go back to the top of the slide
Where I stop and I turn
And I go for a ride
Til I get to the bottom
And I see you again
Yeah yeah yeeaah
