Music in between months

I am on vacation again and I have a lot of media going on.

Also, that other vacation threw off the schedule a bit. For my Hispanic Heritage Month songs and quotes, there were a few days in between September 15th and October 15th where I couldn't post, moving completion of a full month to October 20th. 

That left only eleven days until Native American Heritage Month would start. 

I decided to use those days to reflect on my life a little, past and future. I am taking this week to catch up on those posts.

Honestly, when I start going over my Native American Heritage reading, I may have to go way past just posting on Fridays. I don't know how that is going to work out yet, but I believe things will work out.

Once again, I will try posting things from the road, and it may or may not work, but I will adapt.

    Interim Songs:  

10/21 “Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1 in D Major, Op. 39 No. 1”composed by Edward Elgar, performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra with George Solti

This is because I just graduated. I earned this! 

10/22 “WKRP in Cincinnati Theme Song” sung by Steve Carlisle

That first trip was to Cincinnati, and we thought about this song constantly. It's a good song. 

10/23 “Yahoos and Triangles (King of the Hill Theme Song)” by The Refreshments

10/24 “What Am I Doing Hangin’ Round” by The Monkees

This current trip is basically two days in San Antonio. Speaking of songs I really like, the King of the Hill theme is one. For songs triggered by a place name, The Monkees song references San Antonio repeatedly. (Well, San Anton, but I know what they meant.) 

10/25 “Holiday Road” by Lindsey Buckingham

While it could work with any trip, going to a Holiday World -- in Santa Claus, Indiana -- on the first trip made me think of it more. I didn't realize it so much until I was writing up Holiday World, but then I realized I needed to include that song. 

10/26 “The Last Song” by Elton John

10/27 “Supermodel (You Better Work)” by RuPaul

These are both for Pride month. I have not written about the AIDS reading yet, but RuPaul is in To Wong Foo. If "Supermodel" was not featured in any of those films, it has certainly been featured in others.

10/28 “The Ballad of the Witches’ Road” by the cast of Agatha All Along

I knew I was going to finish with the last three, but before I got there we went to the Dead Media Haunted House. This played while we were in line and it's pretty cool. 

I have not watched Agatha All Along, but I did watch WandaVision and I really liked what they did with the theme songs. They did a good job with this one as well.   

10/29 “Monster Mash” by Bobby “Boris” Pickett

10/30 “Werewolves of London” by Warren Zevon

10/31 “Sweet Vampires” by Alkaline Trio

 Finally, I still really want to try Halloween caroling. It obviously didn't happen this year -- there's things to work out -- but I think these three would be a pretty good set.

They are not completely family-friendly, which is a concern. That is a frequent problem with Alkaline Trio. Sure, "Werewolves of London" has hints of violence, but for Warren Zevon it's pretty tame. 

Those were my songs for the last third of October; there were no quotes.

Sometimes those work better than others.
