MUSIC THERAPY

[A.C.]

I don't think in today's world Music, Art or many other alternative therapies are used. Feeling Down, pass on some of these vids cuz they could make you feel worse, or better.. All of us here are "Ill with want" So I'll start off w/ some liveandbreathing stuff.. Someone done you wrong lately.. music helps. I'm sure several I post could be from shows I was at or, the best kind, just the artist(s) and their favorite camera guys. Start off w/ a few from The Avett brothers.. "I haven't finished a thing in my life, I really don't feel like starting now, walking alone has worked like a charm I'm the only one I have to let down.. BUT watchin you..."


"I need for something, oh let me break it down again.. I need for something but not more medicine, SOMETHING has me.. something has me, actin like somone I don't wanna be, somethin has me, oh something has me actin like someone I know isn't me, Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed""Temporary is my time ain't nothing on this world that's mine, except the will I've found to carry on.. Free is NOT your right to choose it's answering what's asked of you, to give the love you've got until it's GONE"
"The more I have the more I think, I'm ALMOST where I need to be, if only I could get a lil more" Ain't that the dammed truth?? I need some more medicine smh.. If we could all just be Avetts hahaha! #Avetteers ha! 1st show in the Carolina's, took 8yrs, but I managed 2 in 4 mo's.. luck of the draw whilst on vacation,


Before I say ado, one that will pick you up.. earmark this song.. I remember the few times I've heard this live, just how FREAKIN incredibly ALIVE I was /default_smile.png and that's what it's all about.. be ready to get pegged w/ some Ben Harper.. And anyone please feel free to share and post what gets you through tough times.. When ya hear this one.. I think the Zep influence is huge, even a lil Floyd.. Nothing better than when it was the 4 thieves..

GOOD MORNING... may you have a Paris sunrise #7(though many I've introduced this song to, use it to fall asleep rather than awaken.. next on will have ya GET UP! "You have the right, to get up, when you please")


"Fools will be fools and wise will be wise, but Imma look the world straight in the eyes, and say I believe in a better way.. what good is a man who won't make a stand, what good is a cynic w/ no better plan?" "REALITY IS CRUEL AND CUTS THROUGH ME LIKE A KNIFE, EVERYONE I KNOW IS IN THE FIGHT OF THEIR LIVES.. but I believe in a better way"


Been on the Harper "Lonesome train" since they begun.. Welcome to the cruel world hooked me, here it is 21+yrs later.. I can't wait to see him play w/ the Innocent Criminals again... sooo many I wanna hear live again.. 


I can say w/ out any doubt.. this man is not only a genius with his singer/songwriting, as all these instrumental's are on Studio cut albums.. I prefer watching this magician do his work on his Weissenborn.. "You say that time is gonna kill the pain, I say that pain is gonna kill MY time, OH Lord won't you save me... or just leave me alone" Enjoy your weekend

"Is this really living? Sometimes it's hard to tell, or is this just a kinder gentler hell?" 


 "Eh yes in high tide or the low tide Imma be your friend you know that I'm gonna be your friend.."


Oh was I just your habit, cuz I know, a habit is a hard thing to take.. so won't you spare me a lil mercy, there's only soo much I can take"

Over 10yrs ago these cats played on Carson's show.. I thank him for that.. probably that only /default_smile.png

This,, from Pandervia(Pickathon 2010) The year I believe David Moore bloodied his banjo, and his fingers to the point it made an epic photo.. And yup the same song Malachi their drummer played til he bled... My lord I love these guys.


C'mon Sean, when are you EVER appropriate?? "I'd say they were all great dancers, and Lord knows I love.. seems in this life, I was born to let it shine!"


Check out the .58 second mark, look at the banjo.. David is a freak of nature, looks like his blood made his banjo head split? 


NOW DOESN'T THIS MAKE YA FEEL BETTER?? Damn Sean looks like a tweaker here, being sober looks good on him..

The last year I had a decent "quality of life"... it started out like this.. I'm not sure if it'll ever be topped? Surrounded by so many I miss.. It was a hellova NYE show.. and Idk that they'll ever top it? 


And they kept coming at us.. I was down a bout 10-15 rows, and maybe 1 section over.. I went full on VIP, and it was worth it, Missing Bob Weir open for them at R. Rocks.. destroyed me, I had VIP tics for that show 7mo's before it.. but, '14 was NOTHING like '12-13... They even brought their pops and sister out a few times.. the biggest highlight... Seth and Bob's cover of Croce's "Operator" wish the crowd woulda been a wee bit more quiet.. 


And the infamous DCRangerfans "Hand me down tune" performed by Scott and Joe. 


I need Sean to have a NYE gig this year, whether it be Nashville or PA.. IDC.. I need to start off the next year, w/ my favorite music.. BHIC, I wish these guys would take a few year hiatus and come back w/ just the 4 brothers.. they don't need a drummer, nor a 2nd pianist or fiddle player.. I think this was a HUGE reason 2013 was a good year. I wore myself out, lowered my pain meds cuz I was dancing all the time.. I just want that back, nothing else. I'm ok w/ who I am and what I will deal with, but I need at least equal good days, as horrific ones? This cemented my theory that music indeed can make your life so much richer, whilst making you poor haha, cuz tickets and travel/lodging.. is NOT cheap.. wish me well on my Harper trip in 2 weeks. /default_smile.png

This cat... I'm sure most have heard "Dearly Departed" but this.. IS Shakey... from Friday night lights, to Pickathon past 2 years.. And live.. wow, he's got the creepiest sounding guitar riff's.. as well as, and you can see all the Langhorne influence w/ the growling, just nothing is like him live, his studio cuts are OK, but not like this...
"If you don't wanna lock em you better... buy a guuunnnn... Well I saw a snake in an apple tree, I didn't trust a word that he hissed to me.. NO!.. said "it must be awful always tryin' to save the world.. so just buy a collard shirt and try an f@ck some girlsss""

Good morning.. hope no one else has lost out.. and so nice to see how much people really care.. thanks to @Fargo for tryin to help, and @2earls for being a constant.. and a friend.. I really should just post my whole email thread.. for the Dr and who not that say he's always on point.. a real man takes a problem and fixes it, doesn't blame others.. just does what they say... So if you value your crime.. ya better stay outta doors... and if you value them doors.. you better lock em son..

​HA! I ran outta likes at 3am.. so no collared shirts? Look at Shakey, it worked out GREAT for him.. Hell, from being the football star on that TV show to having a full on music career.. Alexjandro took that word of mouth and put it to good use.. the best singers DON'T CARE what they look like singin', dancing.. "dance like no one's lookin" and as the Avetts USED to sing "May you never be embarrassed to siiinnggg!"
