ROCKOLLECTIONS: SHOW ABOUT NOTHING PT.4 END

Moving on with our show about Nothing...I've got Nothing left.

I've got LOADS of Nothing left!

But it's time to wrap this up.

I'll go out with a final bunch of Nothing songs- including going on a Road Trip for some of them, one from my favorite lovable madman, a Steely Dan soundalike by a most unlikely person, and even a Critique Of This Short series.

These Episodes were a lot of fun for me, proving what you can do…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SHOW ABOUT NOTHING PT.3

All things considered, Seinfeld was probably the funniest Television show ever.

And I was thinking, it would not have worked in any city other than New York!

Think about that...there's just no way- the apartments, stores, restaurants, streets, movies, etc.

The CHARACTERS are New York!

A few sound bites from the show and more of the Music of…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SHOW ABOUT NOTHING PT.2

It was a great plot device late in the run of Seinfeld to have them pitch a show to NBC about Nothing- making it a show within a show.

And this is another of those Series I had been thinking about for a while.

Running around pulling out songs...Looking For Nothing, lol!

What was going to be Two Parts, will now be Four…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: SHOW ABOUT NOTHING PT.1

Alright, admittedly these shows are inspired by the great Seinfeld television program.

There will be some sound bites from it.

One interesting thing, while picking out songs for this show I discovered there are a lot of them written about people who have Nothing To Say.

I'll play some.

Other than that, I have NOTHING more to write!

Think you will…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A TRIP TO THE FAIR PT.4 END

With all those Castles, Kings, Queens, Bishops and Knights, it makes you think of a Chessboard, doesn't it?

This time at Ye Olde Renaissance Fair we will hear Songs of Battle and a Love Triangle.

And then our Trip To The Fair will end, for we may have stayed Too Long!

Both Halves of this show were Dedicated To The Memory Of My Good Old Friend, Dan Donnelly, FDNY.

We Are All Diminished When A Man Of Honor Passes From…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A TRIP TO THE FAIR PT.3

Very popular this time of year are those Renaissance Fairs.

So let's go back to a simpler time before computers were dreamed of.

The idyllic Time of Camelot, King Arthur's Court, Merlin's Spells and Knights In Armor.

Pull That Sword Out Of The Stone And Enjoy!

Here are the links So That…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A TRIP TO THE FAIR PT.2

Continuing our Trip, a first song that has Fair in the title, but is actually a Girl's Name- I felt like playing it, thought you might remember it.

Some Music with meaningful lyrics in here.

And yes, I will finally play the Classic song I copped the Series Title from, lol!

Next week, A Trip To The Fair takes a different…

ROCKOLLECTIONS: A TRIP TO THE FAIR PT.1

No one knows precisely when Fairs started.

They were primarily Commercial in nature, consisting of Agricultural Products and Animals.

They naturally crossed the ocean over here to the Colonies, and we've had them ever since.

You can find one almost any time of year.

The goal here is to Musically bring you All The Fun Of The Fair!…
