Hot comb

I sat there, in the deep snow, drawing my sound map. My eyes were closed, using my every ounce of strength to listen for even the smallest sounds. The whispering trees melodic wind, the creaking ice which covered so much of the winding river that ran through the riparian area on my map. When I was done, I laid down, acknowledging nature 's picturesque sky and landscape. The beautiful baby blue sky enveloped me with it’s gentle appeal while the tops of Aspen trees forced it’s barren branches into…

Billy Squier is an American rock musician who was born May 12, 1950, in Wellesley Hills, MA. Squier grew up playing piano taking lessons for around a period of three years. Once he stopped piano lessons he became interested in guitar and purchased one from his neighbor for 95 dollars, but Squier never took guitar lessons. Although Squier loved to play instruments as a child, he did not look into music until he came across the band the Bluebreakers, and Eric Clapton. He even briefly attended…

list, everyone just knew. There were things you should do and things you shouldn’t do. And I knew, knew that its was one of those things you shouldn’t do. No one had to tell me, I just knew and because of that I kept it hidden. I remember walking past Hot Topic at the mall and gazing longingly at the countless band tees of all my favorites, the faces of Cobain, Urie, Gaskarth, etc., asking me to buy their merchandise. But I would just turn away and tell myself it’s not for me as I walk to Foot…

Today in our modern society, there are multiple different genres of music to pick and choose from. So obviously, there is at least one type that people prefer to listen to. The meaning of music varies from person to person. To some, music is an outlet to release one's inner emotions, while to others, music is just something to past time. Rock and Roll is one of America's pastimes, from the riff of electric guitars to the beats of the drums, one can't expect to live life without at least hearing…

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are one of my favorite bands of all time. Have you ever heard a song on the radio before and wanted to hear it again? That’s what happened to me and it turned into a lifetime of listening. When I was young around the age of 8 or 9 I heard some songs on the radio called Dani California and Snow (Hey Oh). When I was young I didn’t know how to find songs unless the person on the radio said the songs name. Both times I had missed the names so I was shit out of luck but…

Red Hot Chili Pepper Fever Once I read our assignment for this paper I knew who I would want to write about, The Red Hot Chili Peppers. I have written about them already once for this class in one of our discussion boards, I believe for our favorite song. I have described them as my favorite band and in some ways I believe that that is true but also I believe that I treasure them so much because I have held onto for the longest amount of time as a band that I listen to and enjoy. I have also…

several different recording groups, including Louis Armstrong and His Hot Five, Louis Armstrong and His Hot Seven, and Louis Armstrong’s All-Stars. When Armstrong contracted with OKeh Records, he formed the Hot Five which, according to Bio.com, “are generally regarded as the most important and influential [recording groups] in jazz history.” The swinging melodies and dynamic flair of jazz might not be the same without the Hot Five and Hot Seven. With these groups, he recorded some popular…

My life changed in a blank of an eye when I laid eyes on my girlfriend Fox. Right now I’m on the phone with her best friend Elliot, “So it’s been eleven months that I’ve been dating with Fox. She’s just too marvelous to put into words. I’m absolutely head over heels in love with her. I want to ask her to marry me, how should I pop the question?” Elliot went silent, and then I hear squealing, “Boy it’s taken you long enough? Oh my god this is fantastic news! Like I’m overwhelmed with emotions,…

I felt like I lost the relationships with my family, I thought I would never have friends anymore, and I never wanted to make any mistake like this for the rest of my life. Because of somethings in my life have been hard, I have changed from careless to caring. My freshman year of highschool, was wild and also nervous about being the younger ones in high school. I didn’t care about anything, beside my grades in school. I was a great student in school, I made excellent grades, and I got along…

Dear Luke, Calum, Michael, and Ashton (AKA 5 seconds of summer), This letter is something I wish I could say to you. But knowing myself, I know I probably won’t ever get the chance. It 's going to end up being a pretty long letter, so bear with me. Before I found out about you guys, I had never cared that much about music. I understood the effort it took to produce it, but I rarely listened to it. The times I did listen to it was usually when I was in the car, or there was nothing better to do.…
