Music

Music inspires all of us. It doesn't matter how old you are, what generation you came from, what music you listen to; music invokes all sorts of emotions in all of us.

Why do we go to concerts? Why do we spend the time, energy, and money to go see bands that we like?


One of my favorite shots of Vince from the ska band Suburban Legends. To me, this really conveys the energy of a live show.


These people are artists. And I don't mean to use the word "artist" as the major record labels have changed the meaning of the word. They have created something that means something to someone, the same way artists like Picasso, Chigall, Ansel Adams, have created works of art that make you feel something.

So, here's a question to my readers: "Who, or what, inspires you?"

Ska music is probably one of the most energetic genre ever. But, what inspires me personally, especially on a music level is like anyone who's non conformist about it. On the real! Think outside the box! You know what I mean?

Still jealous you know Vince and I don't. What the hell!
