105 days into the 365: a year in songs and photos project, PJ made a suggestion that I list all the songs I have used.
I have the same passion for music that I have for photography. Thankfully, listening to music isn't as expensive a hobby as buying camera equipment. I love to share both my pictures and music and this project was a great way of combining my two loves and spreading the joy I get from both. But PJ was right - I was sharing the music I listen to, but just sharing the song titles or lyrics. Why not share the music as well? So I set about listing every song I've used, writing a line or two about the band or song, and linking to a video or somewhere you can listen to the tune. Hopefully, I'll give you some new music to listen to, or maybe an old favorite to enjoy again.
This took me HOURS! HOURS, I tell you. At least I finally found out where I'm missing days.
Day 1: Queens of the Stone Age - I Think I Lost My Headache
See live performance of song here
Day 2: White Stripes - Dead Leaves and Dirty Ground
Day 3: Supersuckers, Some Day I Will Kill You

Day 20: Fran Zappa, Joe's Garage. Love this song!
Day 21: Deftones, Lucky You
Well, folks, it looks like my trouble with numbers will be my downfall yet again. This should have been day 22. But I called it Day 23. So my 100th day was actually my 99th day and....crap. I am NOT going back and numbering them all again. I'll just tack an extra photo on at 365 and call it even.
I found it!
Day 22: Clutch, Green Buckets. I knew I could not have gone this far without a Clutch song!
Day 23: Stormtroopers of Death, Milk. I love singing this song. And it's got such a cool bass line.
Day 24: Far, Mother Mary. My 2nd favorite photo of the set, and one in which the song really fit perfectly.
Video (the actual band's video!).
Day 25: MDC, I Hate Work. Awesome punk band from California via Texas. REAL punk.
Day 26: Mad Season, River of Deceit. I loved this band, which featured members of Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam and Screaming Trees. Depressing song, which I used in a tongue in cheek way on this photo.
Day 27: Guns n Roses, Night Train. There's a neat story behind this one.
Day 28: Reverend Horton Heat, Martini Time
Day 29: The Cramps, Creature From The Black Leather Lagoon. What a fun band.
Day 30: Black Flag, Jealous Again. Maybe my third favorite band. Maybe.
Live video from 1984. Those were the days.
Day 31: Drowning Pool, Break You
Day 32: Hum, Stars. One of my favorite songs.
Day 33: Aztec Camera, Soul's Migration. I still have this photo as my background at work. It's..peaceful.
I can't find anywhere you can hear this song. Email me if you want to.
Day 34: Master P, Converse B ball. The first appearance of our dog in 365!
Can't find this one either, but I have it.
Day 35: Nirvana, Pennyroyal Tea. Well, this could be my 3rd favorite band. I didn't really come to appreciate Nirvana until recently.
Live, unplugged. I love that album so much.
Day 36: Pink Floyd, Learning To Fly. Pink Floyd purists hate this album, but I love it, especially this song.
Day 37: Queens of the Stone Age, Lost Art of Keeping A Secret
Video. Go ahead and watch it. Such a great song.
Day 38: Animaniacs, I'm Cute. Hey, it fit.
Day 39: U2, Trip Through Your Wires. One of their only songs I can still tolerate (excluding the Boy album).
Day 40: Ben Folds Five, Mess. Mess of notes on this photo.
Day 41: Misfits, Teenagers From Mars. I used to adore this band and I just can't listen to them anymore. Still love me some Danzig, though.
Day 42: Made For TV, I'm Afraid of the Russians. 80's cold war music at its best.
Unfortunately, not to be found online.
Day 43: Social Distortion, Mommy's Little Monster. With a story about the adoption of my nephew.
Day 44: System of a Down, Patterns
Day 45: Everclear, Nervous and Weird. One of only two songs I like by this band.
Can't find this online.
Day 46: Cheap Trick, Surrender. With tacky KISS Christmas ornament.
Video. Brings me back.
Day 47: Fall Out Boy, Sugar We're Going Down. The most infectious songs on my iPod.
Video. Sort of. It's a video of someone intentionally misinterpreting the lyrics. I laughed.
Day 48: Glassjaw, Pretty Lush. Long Island screamo band. Hey, I don't make these labels up. I just listen.
Day 49: Captain Sensible, One Christmas Catalog Too Many. Love the captain. And this is my favorite color photo of the bunch.
Day 50: Machine Head, Take My Scars. A band I reserve for my "I need to kick something" days.
Day 51: Mojo Nixon, Elvis is Everywhere. Elvislution, baby.
Day 52: Strawberry Alarm Clock, Incense and Peppermint. Far out, man.
Day 53: Type O Negative, Black No. 1. I do have some metal goth chick in me. It only comes out at night.
Day 54: Perry Como, The Christmas Song.
I'm quite sure you know this.
Day 55: AFI, A Winter's Tale. I used to love this band before they went all Hot Topic on me. I would love to retake this photo. Good idea, not executed well.
Day 56: Vandals, Soup of the Day. Fun punk band.
Can't find online.
Day 57: Queens of the Stone Age, Sick, Sick, Sick. Mmmmm...Pepto soup!
Day 58: NoMeansNo, Cats, Sex, Nazis. No, wait, THIS is my third favorite band!
Unfortunately, there's no video for this song. Instead I will link you to an incredible, amazing, powerful live performance of their song The River.
Day 59: Supersuckers, Fisticuffs. Could THIS be my third favorite band? Heh.
Day 60: Del the Funky Homosapien, Proto Culture. Del rules.
Day 61: Death Cab For Cutie, The New Year. My daughter got me into this band.
Day 62: Donny Osmond, Puppy Love. It was the obvious choice.
Video, 1972. My god. The memories of being in love with him. Man, I'm old.
Day 63: Soundgarden, Blow Up The Outside World. Before Chris Cornell turned into a girl. He was only half girl here. He was all man on Badmotorfinger.
Day 64: Smashing Pumpkins, Blank Page. The midst of my muse crisis.
I'm linking to this instead of the song because it never fails to crack me up.
Day 65: GBH, Midnight Madness and Beyond. The best punk band you never listened to.
Can't find it, so here's a live version of City Baby Attacked By Rats
Day 66: Stephen "Tin Tin" Duffy, Kiss Me. In which I get my 80's new wave on.
Listen. Hold on while I dance for a little while.
Day 67: Fear, New York's Alright. Here's a story by Todd about a Fear show that turned into a riot.
Day 68: Queens of the Stone Age, Quick and to the Pointless. Yes, another QOTSA song.
Day 69: Queens of the Stone Age: Auto Pilot. Umm..yea. I get on kicks sometimes.
Video. In my top five favorite of theirs.
Day 70: Wu Tang Clan, C.R.E.A.M. Dolla dolla bill, y'all. One of the finest albums ever recorded.
Day 71: Adam Ant, Yin + Yang. I really reached for this one.
No video, so here's his best song.
Day 72: The Cure, A Forest. Guess I was in "Band from my wild years" mode.
Day 73: Suicidal Tendencies, Go Skate. I really love this picture. And I love skate punk.
Day 74: Youth Brigade, Sink With California. More skate punk. Complete with California shaped birthday cake.
Day 75: Atmosphere, Trying To Find A Balance. Go see out the album Seven's Travels right now. Complete awesomeness.
Video. Give it a listen. Great lyrics, great beats.
Day 76: Phantom Planet, California. You probably know this song from it being the them to The OC. So I'm going to link to another song by them that rocks. And there's zombies in the video!
Ok, here's where we get lost. This is when I went to California. I still haven't gone back and posted a photo from each day there. Guess I should do that. So don't mind the missing days.
Day 78: Descendents, Weinerschnitzel. Mmmm...chili dogs.
Video. The song is about 11 seconds long.
Day 79: Frank Zappa, Who Needs the Peace Corps. Tales of Haight Ashbury and the broken dreams of my childhood.
Can't find it, so here's a clip of Zappa on Letterman.
Day 81: The Who, Tattoo. Oh yea. Five hours watching someone get a tattoo. Actually, it was more interesting than it sounds.
Day 82: The Vandals, Rico. The best song about California ever written. With my love letter to Sacramento.
Sadly, I can't find this online. Email if you want to hear it. But here's another Vandals song for you, The Legend of Pat Brown.
Days 83 and 84 will have to be thrown in at the end.
Day 85: Faith No More, Last Cup of Sorrow
Neat video, with Jennifer Jason Leigh
Day 86: The Von Bondies, Broken Man. The best rock and roll band you are not listening to. Did I say that already?
Day 87: 50 Cent, Candy Shop. Sometimes listening to his stuff gives me the creeps.
Day 88: Meat Puppets, Fruit.
No Fruit video, but here they are doing Oh, Me, which Nirvana covered beautifully.
Day 89: Blind Melon, Three Is A Magic Number (Schoolhouse Rock). I heard Blind Melon is touring. I hate when bands replace singers. I mean yea, he's dead. But change the band name and move on. Replacing singers never turns out well. Except when Faith No More did it.
Day 90: Tom Chapin, Happy Birthday. Kids music that adults find more than tolerable.
No birthday video, but here's a cute song about the states.
Day 91: Indyanna, Go National. I wish this band got more recognition. Good stuff.
Here they are at Old Ironsides singing Stealing is Wrong.
Day 92: Dead Milkmen, I Hate Myself. In which I take a photo of a toilet bowl.
Struck out yet again on a video, but here's the band doing Stuart.
Day 93: Quicksand, Thorn in My Side. In my top 20 of favorite songs ever.
Video. Get your anger on.
Day 94: Adolescents, Wrecking Crew. My favorite picture of Lili.
A bad sound recent performance of the song. Didn't know they were still around til I saw a flyer for a show in Sacramento.
Day 95: Filter, One. Such a great cover. And I still haven't found my ring.
Day 96: Swingin Utters, Five Lessons Learned. I'll be using more from this punk band pretty soon.
Day 97: Hanson Brothers, The Hockey Song. Fun, fun Canadian punk by the guys from NoMeansNo. And a hockey bet lost.
Day 98: Stone Temple Pilots - Big Empty. I've been on an STP kick lately, after ignoring them for so many years.
Day 99: Bouncing Souls, Hopeless Romantic. Fun song, fun band
Day 100: The Fray, Hundred. I'll be honest. I only knew of this song from my daughter and I needed a song with 100 in the title. Then I listened, and liked. So I learned a little musically from this as well. Photo includes about 40 notes.
Day 101: The Who, In the Blue and Red and Gray. Finally got a copy of this song. Very sweet. Really like the words, which fit nicely on this photo.
Day 102: Judas Priest, All Guns Blazing. Rip-it-up metal, to go with a lame ass phot of some rip-it-up video games. Hey, I've been sick. I try.
Live video. Rob Halford rocks.
Day 103: The Von Bondies, C'mon, C'mon. I might have said this already, but if you don't own this album you are missing out. I've been playing it non stop in my car for about three weeks and I'm not even near sick of it.
Day 104: Meatloaf, Paradise By the Dashboard Light. Why, it feels like just yesterday when I wrote about my hatred of this song....oh, it was!
Hah! I found a video of a couple doing it at a wedding!
And that's it. From now on I will write a little about the band and link, if possible, to the song when I do my 365 photo each night.
When I first started this, the idea was to take a song from my library and take a photo to go with it. Somewhere down the line, I was taking photos and finding songs to go with them. I'd like to challenge myself more with the camera by going back to the other way of doing it.
Now that you sort of know my musical tastes, feel free to make requests for songs I could do for the rest of this project. It doesn't have to necessarily be the song title that is to go with the photo, it could be a specific lyric as well.
Grade I listed historic building constructed in 1330 for the Archbishop Melton of York as a gaol (jail). It served this purpose until the mid 1800's.
"Hexham (/ˈhɛksəm/ HEKS-əm) is a market town and civil parish in Northumberland, England, south of the River Tyne, and was the administrative centre for the Tynedale district from 1974 to 2009. In 2011, it had a population of 11,829.
Smaller towns and villages around Hexham include Corbridge, Riding Mill, Stocksfield and Wylam to the east, Acomb and Bellingham to the north, Allendale to the south and Haydon Bridge, Bardon Mill and Haltwhistle to the west. Newcastle upon Tyne is about 25 miles (40 km) to the east and Carlisle is 37 miles (60 km) to the west.
Hexham Abbey originated as a monastery founded by Wilfrid in 674. The crypt of the original monastery survives, and incorporates many stones taken from nearby Roman ruins, probably Corbridge or Hadrian's Wall. The current Hexham Abbey dates largely from the 11th century onward, but was significantly rebuilt in the 19th century. Other notable buildings in the town include the Moot Hall, the covered market, and the Old Gaol.
The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (Manuscript D: Cotton Tiberius B IV) records the murder of King Ælfwald by Sicga at Scythlecester (which may be modern Chesters) on 23 September 788:
This year Alfwald, king of the Northumbrians, was slain by Siga, on the ninth day before the calends of October; and a heavenly light was often seen on the spot where he was slain. He was buried at Hexham in the church.
The name of Hexham derives from the Old English Hagustaldes ea and later Hagustaldes ham whence the modern form (with the "-ham" element) derives. Hagustald is related to the Old High German hagustalt, denoting a younger son who takes land outside the settlement; the element ea means "stream" or "river" and ham is the Old English form of the Modern English "home" (and the Scots and Northern English "hame").
Like many towns in the Anglo-Scottish border area and adjacent regions, Hexham suffered from the border wars between the kingdoms of Scotland and England, including attacks from William Wallace who burnt the town in 1297. In 1312, Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland, demanded and received £2000 from the town and monastery in order for them to be spared a similar fate. In 1346 the monastery was sacked in a later invasion led by King David II of Scotland.
In 1464 during the Wars of the Roses, the Battle of Hexham was fought somewhere to the south of the town; the actual site is disputed. The defeated Lancastrian commander, Henry Beaufort, 3rd Duke of Somerset, was executed in Hexham marketplace. There is a legend that Queen Margaret of Anjou took refuge after the battle in what is known as The Queen's Cave, where she was accosted by a robber; the legend formed the basis for an 18th-century play by George Colman the Younger (The Battle of Hexham: A Comedy in Three Acts); but it has been established that Queen Margaret had fled to France by the time the battle took place. The Queen's Cave in question is on the south side of the West Dipton Burn, to the southwest of Hexham.
Until 1572, Hexham was the administrative centre of the former Liberty or Peculiar of Hexhamshire.
In 1715, James Radclyffe, 3rd Earl of Derwentwater, raised the standard for James Francis Edward Stuart in Hexham Market place. The rising, however, was unsuccessful, and Derwentwater was captured and beheaded after the Battle of Preston.
In 1761, the Hexham Riot took place in the Market Place when a crowd protesting about changes in the criteria for serving in the militia was fired upon by troops from the North Yorkshire Militia. Fifty-one protesters were killed, earning the Militia the sobriquet of The Hexham Butchers.
Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, Hexham was a centre of the leather trade, particularly renowned for making gloves known as Hexham Tans—now the name of a vegetarian restaurant in the town.
"Hexham" was used in the Borders as a euphemism for "Hell". Hence the term "To Hexham wi’ you an’ ye’r whussel!", recorded in 1873, and the popular expression "Gang to Hexham!". "Hexham-birnie" is derived from the term and means "an indefinitely remote place"." - info from Wikipedia.
Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

University of Oxford
The Radcliffe Observatory
Grade I Listed
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radcliffe_Observatory
The Radcliffe Observatory Quarter is one of the most significant development projects the University of Oxford has undertaken for more than a century.
It lies between the Woodstock Road and Walton Street, with Somerville College to the south and Green Templeton College to the north.
The land was previously occupied by Radcliffe Infirmary which was opened on the site in 1770. It was Oxford’s first hospital.
In 1772 building began on the Radcliffe Observatory, It was the astronomical observatory of the University of Oxford from 1773 to 1934, and is now in the grounds of Green Templeton College.
Over the centuries there have been many developments of the site. The Infirmary remained an independent hospital until the National Health Service was formed in 1948 when it became part of United Oxford Hospitals.
Although the site was sold to the University of Oxford in 2003, it was leased to the National Health Service until 2007, when all the hospital’s activities were relocated to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Headington.
Following an extensive consultation process, the Masterplan for the redevelopment of the site was submitted to Oxford City Council, and work began in October 2008.
The first buildings to be completed were new student accommodation blocks for Somerville College which opened in September 2011.

Alberton House.
This heritage listed property is in the suburb of Mount Albert. Alberton, a typical wooden construction two storey mansion was built in 1863. The towers and porch were added in 1870 and rooms above the kitchen were erected in 1910 or thereabouts. Mount Albert is another one of those volcanic cones. Alberton was once a 500 acre country estate but it is now enclosed with suburbia. Allen Kerr Taylor a Scotsman inherited money from his father and purchased the land in 1849 and built the house as a farm house in 1863. In 1862 on a visit to England he had married and needed a house for his new wife. His wife produced two children that died at birth and alas she also died at the birth of the second child in 1864. He remarried in 1865. As Taylor’s wealth grew from his real estate subdivisions and land sales (he was a successful speculator), he expanded the house which he needed to do to accommodate his 10 children with his second wife. When the towers were added, giving the house a slight Indian look, the mansion had 18 rooms. This was not surprising as Allen Kerr Taylor was born and spent his early life in Madras when his father was stationed there with the British army. The house remained in the Taylor family (Allen Taylor died in 1890) until a descendant of Allen Taylor bequeathed it to the public in 1972 complete with William Morris wallpapers and the furniture and contents.

Lister Block 10 years ago. And probably for more then 20 was an urban explorer and photographers paradise. I went countless times, once even to eat wings from a nearby pizza joint on the roof. It was impressively redeveloped after decades of neglect, proving it can be done especially if it's put on the backs of tax payers.
Here's my xp desktop at work - I'm a client servicing executive at an ad agency and handle a number of clients.
I wanted to able to keep my desktop clean, yet have my lists of tasks for each client visible. I created an overlay for wallpapers in Photoshop (download it here - snipurl.com/3u6r5). I then added my wallpaper of choice as the layer beneath that, and voila. Instant GTD goodness!

I've also set my taskbar to auto-hide, and am using RocketDock with the Stacks docklet to reduce clutter.
The Grade II Listed Great Malvern railway station, which retains most of its original Victorian station design by the architect E. W. Elmslie and is a Grade II listed building. In Great Malvern, Worcestershire.
Great Malvern station was opened by the Worcester & Hereford Railway in 1860 and the present buildings by architect E. W. Elmslie were completed in 1862. It was later absorbed by the Great Western Railway. The buildings are in local Malvern Rag stone and follow a French Gothic theme. A particular feature of the station are the awning pillar capitals on both platforms. They are decorated with high relief mouldings depicting different arrangements of flowers and foliage.
The station celebrated its 150th birthday on 23 May 2010 with the unveiling of a plaque and a special train. An additional part of this celebration was the reinstatement of some of the highly decorated lighting columns around the cab road at the front of the station.
The station is served by two train operating companies: London Midland (who manage the station) and First Great Western. London Midland operate services to Birmingham New Street via Worcester and Hereford every hour and also some services to Birmingham Snow Hill via Kidderminster and Stourbridge Junction.
First Great Western operate a roughly hourly service to London Paddington via the Cotswold Line and Oxford (some of which run to/from Hereford) and every two hours (except Sundays) to Bristol Temple Meads via Gloucester. Many Bristol services continue onwards to Westbury & Weymouth, with one through service to & from Brighton. There was previously a branch line to Ashchurch via Upton-on-Severn & Tewkesbury. Operated by the Midland Railway, it was closed in 1952.
There is a ticket office and "Lady Foley's Tea-room", an award-winning cafe on the northbound platform.

Crude composite picture of the East Range of Gainsborough's Old Hall. This is a Grade 1 listed medieval manor house (Fifteenth Century, in the main), built of timber framing and (early) brick. It stands in the Town centre, and is very well worth a visit.

Took a series of 4 handheld photos and stitched them to create a panorama on the way out of the Boynton Inlet. The view behind me was ominous. This east vantage point was equally menacing. The massive cloud reminded me of a listing ship. As if this massive precipitous cloud structure was waning from the sheer mass of itself.
