all celebrated and welcome
young punks
older one-man bands
all ageless in years
music to our ears.

Music stains the soul the way a tattoo stains the skin. It resides in permanence. Great post, Beth!

Brad, I don’t like the word STAIN (when speaking of music)….. Music is a balm for my soul. Just saying 🙂

Anyone with the guts to stand up and perform in public always gets my respect. Even if their music is not always to my taste. Ed Sheeran started out as a teenage street busker, let’s not forget that. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

Music is the one place we can all get lost in which needs no words (words are a bonus).

Music has the power to lift us up, take us back in time, and is always on stand-by to be a good companion whenever called upon. Great quote used here, Beth.

Those kids are great and so is the man with the xylophone… I read a novel by Bulwer-Lytton. I don’t remember the story at all. I just remember going to the local library (N. Denver) and checking it out. It was old, an olive-green cover, gold letters, and a mildly scandalous story. I just looked it up. It was “Pelham; Or, the Adventures of a Gentleman” I wonder now what it was about??? 😀

Both expressed their natural music spirit, each I. Their own way. Wonderful to see. Good memory of the book-
