women a man short
not so long ago, i found myself static, stale with what i thought i should be doing with my life. my interests faded, and i felt myself become too self concentrated. what was worst of all? the music stopped. i couldn't bear to listen to anything. i couldn't even pick up my guitar. and one day, i stumbled across this song by Canadian band Women "Locust Valley. the immediate punctuation of the opening guitar riff, dancing around in between octaves arpeggiating this jazzy, sharp groove. something kind of clicked. i was stepping back in the direction of feeling myself again. all because of this interesting piece of music. Christopher Reimer, the band's guitarist, died in his sleep the other day at the age of 26. mr Reimer, i pay homage to you for your contribution toward the progression of how a band can sound, and for catching my ear. thank you for making me feeling a little better about myself.
