The Black Keys

The Black Keys have been around since 2002... why i have not known about them until now, i don't know?!?! As my new obsession of the month.... I'm purely addicted to their awesome mix of this classic bluesy sound and new age retro/indie tone. Their first album "The Big Come Up" is most definitely my favorite! I just drive in my car and almost don't wanna get out till the last song has played! I would categorize them in the Blues-rock genre along with some of my favorites...Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Cream, Jimmy Reed, and Muddy Waters. Dan Auerbach's voice is so different and unique! So as of right now with my insufficient funds i haven't been able to purchase all their albums like I'd want to at the moment but I'm in love with their new album "Brothers" so if you have been blessed to have already been a follower of this band then rock on! If you don't know who I'm talking about... do yourself a favor, educate yourself on The Black Keys!

The Gulf....

I've finally had enough! I can't stand watching the news, weather channel, reading articles and seeing countless pictures on the BP oil spill that just can't seem to be stopped!!! It's sooo sad and before we know it the whole East Coast will be affected. It's been 49 days and over 53,000,000 million gallons have already been spilled. Within seconds of the Hati disaster Americans were all ready to donate money, throw fundraisers, have concerts and even fly there to help the people of Hati. I support that totally but when it comes to helping our own country we can't seem to be bothered! Where are all the stars and their telethons now? Well I wanna help! I don't know where to start or what to do so I'm looking for ideas - and anyone that wants to help, any friends or family - anyone! please let me know. Anything to raise money to send to organizations that help in wildlife rescue, Gulf support, etc. Give me feedback!
