Monday Music Moves Me, Again!

My husband just turned 64. This Beatles song was, of course, the theme song.

It used to seem ancient, but not so much anymore, so here's another song, by Queen, about what it actually means to be 64 year young.

Not sure who on the blog hop is 64, I've been gone awhile, but happy birthday!

For those of you who are teachers, my TPT store, Catch My Products, is on sale for 20% off. Furthermore, I'm participating in dollar deals and a 50% off sale for two items, each. Go to the previous post for details!

Finally, link up to the blog hop for Musical Monday Moves Me.

#MM Marty O'Reilly & The Old Soul Orchestra

An old family friend called to tell us she is managing a band and would be heading to Memphis for a one night's gig at Lafayette Music Room. This is an old Memphis restaurant where many of the great ones got their start. Billy Joel, Barry Manilow, Kansas, and Kiss all performed there before becoming famous, so you can see the variety.

The band we housed is called Marty O'Reilly & the Old Soul Orchestra. Being a Tuesday night, we had planned on staying for one set and heading home around 9:30. The band was so good that we ended up staying until after the crowd demanded another song at closing.

Us with Yakov Smirnoff's daughter.

Here we are with Natasha. As a little girl, she was friends with our daughter Judy. We haven't seen her since the kids were little. As a side note, her dad is a famous comedian. The entire family has dad's fun personality, and they are great to be around.

The lead singer of the band left the shirt he performed in at our house. It's a nice shirt, and he wanted it back, but we decided to sell it on Ebay instead. Tee hee. Just kidding. Marty's shirt is in the mail to California.

Marty had a funny habit of playing from the floor every now and then. I thought it was cute and repeatedly tried and failed to capture a photo. Every time I'd think about it and get my phone out, he'd stand up. This photo is Natasha's.

Now for the part you've all been waiting for. Here is a sample of the music from this up and coming band. If you like them, you may download a free tune at: www.MartyOreilly.com, or you can follow them on Facebook at: Facebook.com/martyoreillymusic

#MM That Inappropriate Mind of Mine

As I listen to the news about the horrors happening halfway around the world, I can't help but think about Bob Seger. The earthquake was devastating causing many to parish. These people need our prayers, but still Bob Seger keeps playing through my head. I'm sorry my mind turns to peppy songs at inappropriate times, but maybe that's just a way to deal with tragedy. So here's what's in my head. Praying for the victims of the disaster in Katmandu.

I hope I don't start humming this next one when I hear of a horrible school shooting. This song's bouncy beat is totally inappropriate to its content, but you gotta admit, Stacy Uncorked, the guys in Foster the People are as hot as a country star. Whoo-baby!

Do you like my font? I finally broke down and bought a license to use all of Jenny Jones' Hello fonts. I'm now making my #TPT products with cute fonts and revising many.
