cassette - (visions of the unexcused)
Since bringing Visions of the Unexcused back to life, I’ve really come to enjoy making the podcasts. It’s kind of like making a weekly mix tape for the world to hear, which is honestly beyond cool.
episode 3 features some great new bands, 3 of my all-time favorite artists who I didn’t play in my first 2 shows, some classics, and a pretty special last song.
VOE #1 fan back in the Oneonta Days was my Mom. I used to tape each and every show of mine, and she’d listen to the tapes over and over again which I thought was pretty cool. My mom grew up with Big Band and 50’s rock, but she’d always listen to my records with an open mind be it if they were punk, indie, metal, or rap.
She recently passed away in August and it’s still been a heavy adjustment period for me, and music has certainly been my therapy. The last song on episode 3 was one of the favorite songs I ever played for my Mom, and it definitely has taken on a new meaning for me, which was fun to re-discover.
Hope you enjoy this week’s “mix” and I’ll be seeing you next week.
Salud.
