How are you all holding up during these crazy pandemic times? A musician friend recently posed this question to me and I couldn’t help but think how music has really gotten me through all of this. I never knew how much I liked disco, house and Kool & the Gang before COVID-19. The music of the mostly 80’s (with some 70’s and 90’s thrown in) has helped to keep me sane. I can’t really explain it other than to say that I’m feeling lucky that I grew up at a time when music education was strong in my school. Everyone I knew in my circles in elementary, junior high and high school either sang or played an instrument. In band, we played Earth, Wind & Fire, the Beatles and KISS….as I recall.
So, how are you really getting through?!…let us know. In the meantime, keep making your own crazy organized sounds and call it your music. And, don’t let anyone stop you…
Take care, everybody. I’ll be busy keeping up with the US Open.
Watch the US Open…
