A - Z Music I Love, G is for Garth Brooks and H is for Hole

Yup, that's right. I said Garth Brooks. I am not a huge fan of country music, but I can appreciate entertainment. When I was 19, maybe 20, I saw Garth in concert with my very first gay. His name was Alex and was the first openly gay man I had ever met. We would go to Hillcrest and hang out, I learned about drag queens and how you could probably tell a top from a bottom.

The concert was great and Alex and I had a great time. I miss Alex. He moved to San Francisco to be with his boyfriend and I never saw him again. I hope where ever he is, he is happy and doing well.


It is surprising to a lot of people that I would like Hole. Yes Courtney is a train wreck, but aren't we all at some point? Hole was different from anything I was listening to at that point and taught me that women can rock, that they don't have to be soft and dainty. Women don't have to be quiet and shy. Train wreck as she may be, Courtney gave me a different look on how a talented woman can be.

Song of the Day 09/28/08

Violet, by Hole (Back when courtney was pretty)

And the sky was all violet I want it again, but violent, more violent
and i'm the one with no soul
one above and one below

might last a day yeah
mine is forever
might last a day, yeah
mine is forever



well they get what they want, they never want it again
well they get what they want, they never want it again

go on, take everything take everything i want you to
go on, take everything take everything i dare you to

i told you from the start just how this would end
when i get what i want i never want it again
