The city I live in doesn't see much from the music world. We do have a lot of local talent that starts here and then moves on to make it big and then they forget where they came from. I love to support local musicians whether they are from my city or from the great state of Texas. So it was a must that I go to an acoustic performance by Justin Furstenfeld. The lead singer of Blue October. A band from Houston Texas that formed in 1995. (And 1995 was a very good year for me.) And over the years I have fallen in love with their style of music. So after last night I know a little more about the man behind the music. The reason they disappeared from the music scene for a while and why he does what he does. It was a good show. Its now in my top 5 of favorite concerts I have attended. It gives me a greater appreciation for their music and a better understanding of the lyrics.
My sister and I went and enjoyed laughing and listening to such talent. I will never forget a lot of what he said and I have a few favorite songs to add to my play list now. I am so glad I was able to be a part of his night. He made everyone feel like we had all been long time friends with him and he was playing in a friends living room. I am also glad our community college did such a great job at getting him here to lil 'ole Amarillo, Texas!
.....There's something that I can't quite explain
I'm so in love with you
You'll never take that away
And if I've said it a hundred times before
Expect a thousand more
You'll never take that away
Well expect me to be
Calling you to see
If you're okay when I'm not around
Asking if you love me?
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make us smile.......
