On today's issue, smack dab on the front page, you'll find this article, portraying the internet as an increasingly hate-filled, threatening place to visit:

What are your thoughts and feelings on the matter?
BTW, internet rudeness and blogosFEAR cruelty was not what I had in mind when I wrote this:

At about half-way through the book, this song came to me. I have yet to officially review the book, or interview Brian. I'll keep you posted.
What Have I bin Dreamin'
words and music by Dr BLT copyright 2007 Smash Records
what have I bin dreamin'
what have I bin sold
is the road
to rock n roll
what have I bin wishin'
is this the way it ends
because you woke me up
I can call you friend
is this a dream
or is this a nightmare...
I was talking to 60s folk icon Barry McGuire the other day and he was sharing about the demands of being married and being a touring musician. His wife, Mari told me being married to a touring musician is like being part widow.
When Paul McCartney was married Linda, I understand he used to take her on tour with him. This may have been the secret to his rare, long-lasting celebrity marriage.
At this time, most of my touring is local, so this isn't really a personal...
Those few folks that follow my musical trails will notice that all of my released material is still a work in progress. This song is no exception. I hope that if you heard the song yesterday, you will gain a new appreciation for, not necessarily the song, but the man that inspired it. And if you haven't heard it, check it out. Find out what a song sounds like after it's been "shrink rapped."

What do you think about our nu-est rising star for Khrist and his Konversion?
Korn Off da Kob
Dr BLT
words and music by Dr BLT (c) 2007 Shrink Rap Records
he broke away from the band
that caused him fame
but his involvement in the band
well, it made him go insane
the road and the heavy load
the meth and the mob
made him turn to Christ
and now he's
Korn off da Kob
Korn of da Kob
Korn off da Kob
well he's climbin' the New York Times

Word to the mothers! My little baby girl just turned 2 a couple of weeks ago. To celebrate her 2nd birthday, I've remixed our parody of Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby. She was 5 days of age at the time she assumed the aka of Vanilla Nice, and proudly participated in this recording session.
By 5 months, she had already made her radio debut on a song of her daddy's aired at a college radio station in Christchild, New Zealand. Her people said to my...
If you want to show Chris Daughtry how big a fan you are, and how much support Kern County has to offer for this passionate performer and straight-from-the-heart rocker, deliver the goods in the form of a comment.
If you hate him, and you're into dissin' Daughtry, I'm not going to delete you, but this new series is primarily reserved for Bakersfield fans who want to show their support and stay connected with what's happening with his career.
So put on your headphones...
I Want My Nickelback: new BLoG sErIeS from me, the Nickelbacker
Hi, I know I've already got too many aka's but for the purpose of my new blog series, I Want My Nickelback, I'm the Nickelbacker. For the first in a series of Nickelback fan threads, I'd like you to listen to this song, sing along with the moving lyrical video, and get ready to have a great Monday.
As you do, reflect on the lyrics, then to participate in my blog n roll discussion, simply tell me how things would...

What difficult fact of life that you initially struggled with have you come to accept? In I Guess things Happen that Way, Johnny Cash shares his difficult journey on the way to acceptance. It has to do with the reality of a love that's lost its sparkle and shine.
The Cash cover you hear here is a bonus track from my CD, Blackout: A Tribute to Johnny Cash, which features mostly original songs about the life and music of Johnny Cash....
At the age of 13, I had my head in the clouds (it still is). I would listen to my favorite songs on AM radio, and create my own little rock n roll heaven in my head. All I needed was a theme song for my own personal paradise. Enter the Righteous Brothers and their big hit of the summer of 74, Rock n Roll Heaven. The song includes these memorable lines:
If you believe in forever
then life is just a one-night stand
if there's a rock n roll heaven
well you...
How many times should the United States initial peace talks with leaders of the Middle East? Is it a waste of time? Hasn't it always been the same old story: One step forward, and two steps back? Given the intensity of hostilities between enemies, is peace even possible? Is it possible to achieve peace or is it just a word or an illusive prospect? In short: What would it take to achieve world peace? Once achieved, what would it take to maintain it? I...
I think it takes maturity. I think it takes a solid foundation of mutual trust. I think it takes gentleness. I think it takes loyalty. I think it takes humility. I think it takes unconditional love. I think it takes sacrifice. I think it takes unselfishness. I think it takes hope. I think it takes support. I think it takes time. I think it takes faith. Then again, what do I know?
What do you think it takes for a...
psychoSONGanalysis
Never mind that I earn my living getting into disturbed psyches, trying to untangle mangled relationships, and unscrambling messed up minds and emotions. It doesn't take a psychologist, or any mental health professional to figure out the message contained in this song, a song by one of my favorite bands, music-wise, and one of my least favorite bands, message-wise.
The music clearly rocks the house down. There is a fever and intensity that delivers...
Is it okay for a woman to vandalize property as payback against a man for infidelity and/or for leaving a troubled relationship? Do you find yourself sympathizing more with a woman who violently attacks an unfaithful spouse than a man who does such to a woman? Does our society hold a double standard when it comes to payback between men and woman?
In the game of blog n roll, I spin an original song, ask a question, and you get to answer it. In short, you put the...
Hello Bakersfield blog community members and visitors!
If you haven't heard the latest controversy surrounding Avril Lavigne and the song she supposedly co-wrote, check out the story via this link:

If you haven't downloaded (for free) the latest parody by Avril Latrene and the Extremes, aka Dr BLT, hear it here:
I Wanna Rip Your Song Off
new lyrics by Dr BLT (adapted from Avril Lavine's Girlfriend)
hear the song at this link:

I don't doubt the sincerity of celebrities who performed at the concert, but the only problem with P Diddy's performance at the recent Concert for Diana, was that he performed a song originally written for another celebrity----Biggie Small.
This is also the problem with Candle in the Wind, the song Elton John performed at Princess Di's wedding.
He should have performed a song especially written for Princess Di, like this one (but, not necessarily this one):

My daughter was having a birthday party on Saturday, June 30. She will be turning 2 on July 5. We needed some food for the party. My wife placed an order at Subway and sent me on my way.
I wanted to stop off at Target and pick up a copy of Nickelback's latest CD, but changed my mind half way down Coffee Road and headed back North on my way to Subway.
When I arrived at Subway, on Olive and Coffee, I couldn't believe who was standing in line with his...
