Welcome!


"We got the sky to talk about/ And the world to lie upon."
--"To Live Is To Fly," Townes Van Zandt


So said TVZ. With that in mind, welcome to this space. Here you will find daily updates of music--big names, small names, criticism, reminiscings, and ramblings, all as a means to connect one audiophile to another. I also plan to post thoughts about art, film, literature, and history as side dishes to the main auditory course.

But first, a little bit about the name. I live in Austin, TX--formerly named Waterloo. I don't want to limit this blog to one category, so I will include "everything under the sun"--from avant-garde to zydeco.

And what better first song to leave y'all with than the blog's namesake, "Waterloo Sunset" by The Kinks. It is a timeless piece about a very specific point in time--people-watching along the River Thames in London. Enjoy!
