What I love about Pete Townshend was that he does what I like to do - write and present a song in skelton form then get the band to add their talents and flesh out the parts - here is Pete's original demo when The Who were working on another concept album to be called Lifeboat that eventually used some completed songs for that project and a record called WHO'S NEXt - my favorite Who record where Pete introduced synths performed well and still stand up today.

Great traveling song.  I had "Mobile" on the license plate of my truck years ago.

 

Now I have Rush's Clockwork Angels CD in the player.  Rock on!

Would love to do The Who for our annual FOOD FOR THE HUNGRY concert - this one always makes me cry (My favorite all time Who song though is I CAN SEE FOR MILES) - Tommy was my first album when I got my first very own stereo for my room.

I was watching Donnie Darko for the first time in a long time last night and one of "those" songs that strikes an emotional chord in me came at the end of the movie called "Mad World"  and Aimee Mann's "Wise  Up" in the movie Magnolia - both make me cry and it is a good cry - a cleansing cry - and I want to create a song that does the same - grabs and makes people listen up and be effected by it.

and when I saw Magnolia - Aimee Mann's song grabbed me and wouldn't let go

Sadly google bought YouTube and advertisements make money for them - As soon as the SKIP button is available I click and rid myself of those pesky ads. At least you don't have to pay for the YouTube site .... yet ☹️ but I fear it is coming.. any who.... here's another relaxing tune....the brother of the lead singer of Frankie Goes to Hollywood (Liverpool band) conducted the Magical Mystery Tour bus I took when visiting the home town of my idols THE BEATLES.......

I have noticed that on YT as well and wish it would go away.

I have noticed my music suggestions have been pretty good lately

@Teri Anneagreed - your songs input has been wonderful.

 

I thought I'd share some additional photos of gear one of my guitars made - the cabinet contains the speakers used in 1960's fender amps and wow does it crank. He also built the Ric 12-string from scratch. We use it a lot in our covers of Beatles, Tom Petty, REM, Byrds and Jelly Fish

band going to do this version of Badfinger song - if you don't know the tragic story of Badfinger - sadly - 2 of them hung themselves... sad because their management and record companies robbed them blind.

I loved the German band Lake when they released their first album and I really liked "On the Run"

Having started with a new therapist who I felt excellent with and who wants to help me achieve my transition goals and is willing to write the referral letter and have my old Psychologist who is a partner do the same - felt like a giant step forward. The song that comes to mind is....

@Shay - great concert, you're a lucky girl...

 

From around that same time, it's just groovy and dance-able, makes me move, in the most delicious ways, one of my favorite play along songs...Becker's solo, sooooo sweet.

Becker was so under rated. Love his contributions to Steely.

Love this song - and it is in a scale not used in Rock Music in the opening sequence - I bet someone out there knows the name of the scale.

 

Love the song - this goes out to all of you ladies - because everything you do is magic.....

 

THE POLICE - EVERY LITTLE THING SHE DOES IS MAGIC 

 

@Cyndee I hear you doing bass...

      I use my  chosen name online and when ever I can. I play some online game and only go by that name. That is how everyone there know me. Yes it does feel great to be called the name you prefer.

      I was ten years old when my mom walked in on me frolicking around my room dressed up in her bra, panties, and some pantyhose. I had been doing this in the privacy of my bedroom for a little while now so I had my own little stash box I kept full of different panties, bras, etc ... of hers. My mom's underwear was so easy for me to come by and she was a very attractive woman, classy, elegant. Well when she walked in on me, she looked at me with disgust and said to me... "If I wanted to run around like mommy's little girl instead of mommy's little boy, then she was going to treat me like mommy's little girl."  She left my bedroom after telling me NOT to change or get dressed or anything and returned with a few of her work skirts and blouses and such. She made me model off her outfits for her and I have to admit ... I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT. I felt so sexy, and feminine. And she knew I loved it.  She told me we can do this every weekend if I'd like. It would be OUR little secret.

      The usual social ways, of course.  Taking care of my partners and stepkids, being involved in my community.  That makes me feel good about my role.   As for physical validation and gender... probably the most euphoric experience is sex.  I grew up with my mother telling me that my flat and boyish body was strange, that my intersex anatomy was shameful, that no man would want me. So experiencing what I was told I could never have is physical proof that I'm actually worth something.

      <Moderator hat on>  I think that, at this point we need to get the thread back onto the topic, which is the judge's ruling on the ballot proposition.  If there is more to be said on the general principles of gendered spaces etc., please discuss them, carefully and respectfully, in separate threads. <Moderator hat off>

      People who have no understanding of transgender conditions should not be making policy for people dealing with it. Since it is such a small percentage of the population, and each individual is unique, and their circumstances are also unique, each situation needs to be worked with individually to see that the best possible solution is implemented for those involved. 
    • Abigail Genevieve
      No.  You are getting stuck on one statement and pulling it out of context.   Trans kids have rights, but so do non-trans kids.  That conflict is best worked out in the individual situation. 
    • MaeBe
      I get the concept, I believe. You're trying to state that trans kids need to or should be excluded from binary gender spaces and that you acknowledge that answers to accommodate those kids may not be found through policy. I disagree with the capability of "penetration" as being the operative delimiter in the statement, however. I contest this statement is poorly chosen at best and smacks of prejudice at worst. That it perpetuates certain stereotypes, whether that was the intent or not.   Frankly, all kids should have the right to privacy in locker rooms, regardless of gender, sexuality, or anatomy. They should also have access to exercise and activities that other kids do and allow them to socialize in those activities. The more kids are othered, extracted, or barred from the typical school day the more isolated and stigmatized they become. That's not healthy for anyone, the excluded for obvious reasons and the included for others--namely they get to be the "haves" and all that entails.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Context.  Read the context.  Good grief.
    • MaeBe
      Please don't expect people to read manifold pages of fiction to understand a post.   There was a pointed statement made, and I responded to it. The statement used the term penetration, not "dissimilar anatomy causing social discomfiture", or some other reason. It was extended as a "rule" across very different social situations as well, locker and girl's bedrooms. How that term is used in most situations is to infer sexual contact, so most readers would read that and think the statement is that we "need to keep trans girl's penises out of cis girls", which reads very closely to the idea that trans people are often portrayed as sexual predators.   I understand we can't always get all of our thoughts onto the page, but this doesn't read like an under-cooked idea or a lingual short cut.

      I shopped online in the beginning of transition. I had great success with SHEIN and Torrid!

      Have you read the rest of what I wrote?   Please read between the lines of what I said about high school.  Go over and read my Taylor story.  Put two and two together.   That is all I will say about that.

      "I feel like I lost my husband," Lois told the therapist,"I want the man I married." Dr. Smith looked at Odie, sitting there in his men's clothing, looking awkward and embarrassed. "You have him.  This is just a part of him you did not know about. Or did not face." She turned to Odie,"Did you tear my wedding dress on our wedding night?" He admitted it.  She had a whole catalog of did-you and how-could you.  Dr. Smith encouraged her to let it all out. Thirty years of marriage.  Strange makeup in the bathroom.  The kids finding women's laundry in the laundry room. There was reconciliation. "What do we do now?" Dr. Smith said they had to work that out.  Odie began wearing women's clothing when not at work.  They visited a cross-dressers' social club but it did not appeal to them.  The bed was off limits to cross dressing.  She had limits and he could respect her limits.  Visits to relatives would be with him in men's clothing.    "You have nail polish residue," a co-worker pointed out.  Sure enough, the bottom of his left pinky nail was bright pink  His boss asked him to go home and fix it.  He did.   People were talking, he was sure, because he doubted he was anywhere as thorough as he wanted to be.  It was like something in him wanted to tell everyone what he was doing, and he was sloppy.   His boss dropped off some needed paperwork on a Saturday unexpectedly and found Odie dressed in a house dress and wig.  "What?" the boss said, shook his head, and left.  None of his business.   "People are talking," Lois said. "They are asking about this," she pointed to his denim skirt. "This seems to go past or deeper than cross dressing."   "Yes.  I guess we need some counseling."  And they went.

      You look wonderful!!! A rose among the roses.

      Mine would be SHEIN as much as I have bought from them lol.
    • MaeBe
      This is the persistence in thinking of trans girls as predators and, as if, they are the only kind of predation that happens in locker rooms. This is strikingly close to the dangerous myth that anatomy corresponds with sexuality and equates to gender.
