JMU LOVE

Hello friends! Earlier this week, something amazing was revealed to the world. Some of you may not care that much. To those of you who are JMU students, JMU alums, seek that culture of involvement that is so strong at JMU, or want to give back to a school which has given so much to you...then you will most definitely care.

JMU LOVE stands for Leaders Of Volunteer Engagement, and their website explains in detail what it is that they do, and how it is that you can help. Over the past few months, I worked closely with the JMU Alumni Association in helping to film and edit a video that promoted JMU LOVE, caught the viewer's attention, filled them in just enough, and encouraged them to get involved and visit the JMU LOVE website. So, if you have interest in my video work, JMU, JMU LOVE, volunteering, or the colors purple and gold...then check this out!

Happy Labor Day. DO WORK!

Sorry for the time between posts...I've been busy. Here for you now is a song by a great band that my friend Alyssa is going to see the end of this month in RVA. I've used a song of theirs ("Pumped Up Kicks") in the past that has probably become the most overplayed song I've heard all year. It's pretty rough. So that killed my favorite song without a doubt. Here's my second favorite. Enjoy!

I haven't posted anything about funny videos for a while. I apologize. But, for your viewing pleasure I now have a Japanese video for McDonald's. In case you were wondering....yes...yes it IS ridiculous.

Here's a quick trio of songs by Band of Horses that I've been meaning to blog about for a while. 2 songs come from their 2006 album and 1 comes from their 2010 album and that track was released as a single in February of this year and I fell in love all over again. So I hope you all enjoy too!

August's first Song of the Moment is a great one. It has an awesome folksy instrumentation with amazing vocals to boot. I hope you all enjoy this track as much as I do!

Anniversary

Dear friends...it's been just over a year that I've been doing this junk. Yippee!
Sometimes I love it and sometimes I am impartial. Most of the time I feel like people don't care to hear what I have to say, so instead I force-feed my opinions to them and cram it down their throats. So...I hope you've enjoyed that for the last year and 10 days. If you'd like to see my first blog post ever check it out HERE.

But for real...all jokes aside...thanks a bunch for feigning interest in me, my life, and my bloggings. I wouldn't keep doing it if there weren't a few people out there that actually enjoyed it, so thanks for enjoying it and thanks so so so much for supporting me in my website and my blog over the least year!

Here's a sort of older tune coming from a defunct UK band from the late 90s. This tune comes from their last album in 2000 (after they changed their name by adding "The" to it...nice touch) and I still dig it. I hope you all do too. Enjoy!
