TMP:  The Master and his Disciple.

It’s good to have influences.  It’s even better to influence others. 

For the last few years MG has taken advantage of me.  In a good way.  She has harnessed the power of The Prick for her own personal benefit.  I have a passion to discover new bands and because of that I am constantly listening and perusing for new music.  MG has waited for me to do the research and has eagerly welcomed the new music with open arms.

Today in a discussion she says that she has found her musical niche.  She likes Indie/Folk/Alternative. 

*DING*

I am proud of the girl.  For years she has learned and studied at the feet of the master.  Today, the student became the master for all but a brief moment.  Thanks to MG, I now am a fan of the band Unkle Bob.  I guess her watching Grey’s Anatomy isn’t bad after all.  (YES, MG, I KNOW WHERE YOU DISCOVERED THIS BAND!)

On another musical note.  The band Travis is coming out with a new album.  The other day whist driving, I hear/see a new track from the band play.  This made me wonder if they were coming out with a new album.  I was right, they are.  May 7th The Boy with No Name is due to hit the stores.  Check out the video.. I give it my seal of approval.  Yes, there is even a mascot in it too!!

Keep up the good work MG.
