Life goes on, man! The July 2023 Challenge!
- Thread starter gafacaode
- Start date
Man I think it’s been a year since I’ve participated in one of these. I’ll give it a go.
1. “F*** it, Dude. Let’s go bowling.”
Let’s get the ball rolling, let’s get this party started!
Lightnin’ Hopkins - Lightnin’ Strikes
I’m awful at bowling. Strikes are not something that I get very often. I probably get more gutter balls than strikes. But going with friends/family is still always a blast.

Rockin’ Into The Night - .38 Special
Every road trip playlist I create starts with the song Rockin’ Into The Night. I even suggested that this is a great album to start any road-trip to!

Irreversible Entanglements - Open the Gates
I usually begin a game of bowling with an open frame.

Amber Mark - Three Dimensions Deep
I view "Worth It" as the shining example of self-reflection and motivation on this album, one of my top10 from last year.

LIFE’LL KILL YAH - Warren Zevon
Zevon’s music often lends itself to reflection and isn’t afraid to draw blood. There’s an honesty to his work and I picked this one specifically because of its place in Warren life timeline wise.
RIP Warren

Elvis Costello - Spike
Song: “Deep Dark Truthful Mirror”
My favorite Elvis Costello song. The MTV unplugged performance in particular is fantastic, but all the videos seem to have been pulled

Perfect choice...

It seems I lean on Nathaniel in a lot of these challenges; his writing really gets to me. This album is full of self reflection, as well as thoughts on love lost, lives lost, and the will to keep going. The Song Exploder episode that covers this album is fantastic.

I second the thanks to @gafacaode especially since I haven’t been in the mood to listen to records and I decided to jump back in via this!

Elbow - The Take Off and Landing of Everything
A mostly quiet and contemplative outing, perfect for reading on the couch.

R.E.M. "Murmur" (1983 I.R.S. Canada)
This one is pretty mature for a band's first full length. The songs meet the challenge for today in my opinion in that they have a self-reflective feel to them.

The wife can't stay awake past 9, even on vacation, but our hotel has a game room with darts and foosball, so I grabbed a few cans of a peach lagers I found at Peach World down the street from our hotel and I'm throwing darts listening to some tunes on my phone.
