Bayside - Two Tunes for a Monday

If you hunted long enough, I believe I have these videos embedded in an existing post or page on this blog. However, they are phenomenal tunes. I'm disappointed that I am not going to see Bayside on Friday, June 19th in Davenport. I don't think that they would play either of them in concert that night.

Because I love Bayside, here's another tune!

So Much to Say

Obviously, this blog has become neglected when it comes to actually writing about life and my journey through it. I'm not going to list out each and every thing going on in life. That said, Bad Rumor played in MO on Saturday, 3-22-2025, and I will be updating https://prhmusic.blogspot.com/p/videos-of-me-playing-drums.html - All Videos of Me Playing Drums soon. Also, on Sunday, April 6, and Monday, April 7, I will be in Chicago for a two day BAYSIDE concert! My friend Chris and I are leaving North Liberty, iA, on Sunday (time TBD) and driving to the Chicago House of Blues. We're staying in a hotel in downtown Chicago that is walking distance to the CHOB. Then, on Monday, our tickets are VIP at the level where we will meet Bayside - Anthony, Chris, Nick, and Jack - prior to the show. The band Sincere Engineer is opening the show and the fact that I don't have "Sincere Engineer" as a label on this blog tells me that I am horribly behind in my writing about my life - they are one of the bands that I have come to really like in 2025. Also, as with the rising and setting of the sun, I am getting older. Last month, I went to see my eye doctor because I thought something was wrong with the glasses I purchased in December 2024. Nope - something was wrong with my eyes. I have cataracts. I saw an eye doctor on Thursday, March 13, and nearly twp weeks later, I've not heard when my cataract removal eye surgery will happen. I don't know if I've confessed in any of the other 13,388 posts on this blog ... but I despise having any action done associated with my eyes.

Everyday Royalty is STELLAR

I am embarassed to admit that the latest Anthony Raneri album called Everyday Royalty was released last week and it has taken me 6 days to acknowledge its release. This is a fantastic album and I hope that everyone in the entire world hears this album and loves it as much as I do. I embedded the entire album below, but I wanted to point out the best track on the album called "High Road" so I embedded it below:

And here's the entire album playlist:

12 Great Bands Plus 3 More

This is a list of 12 great bands. None of the 12 bands listed below are new to this blog - there was an existing label for each and every one of them so I have included an appropriate link in the list. I think it's interesting that Motley Crue and Guns-n-Roses have so many pages.

  1. Quiet Riot (15)
  2. Bon Jovi (9)
  3. Motley Crue (62)
  4. Cinderella (8)
  5. Twisted Sister (11)
  6. Poison (19)
  7. Europe (4)
  8. Guns-n-Roses (35)
  9. Dokken (34)
  10. Winger (4)
  11. Ratt (18)
  12. Warrant (9)

In contrast, when asked, I often will say that Metallica, Bayside, and Count the Stars are my 3 favorite bands. Here's how many labels for each of those bands exist on my blog:

Just to Catch Up

Remember Friday, April 10? I was ecstatic because two of my all-time favorite bands were going to play in Iowa. On Saturday, 8-19, Spitalfield plays in Des Moines and Bayside plays in Council Bluffs. On Sunday, 8-20, Spitalfield plays in Council Bluffs. I didn't know that was the actual daily schedule for the two day festival in Council Bluffs when I wrote the following post, but I know it now: Spitalfield and Bayside.
I also learned that Extreme and Living Colour are playing at the Paramount Theater in Cedar Rapids on 8-19-2023.
I also learned that the legendary metal band W.A.S.P. and Armoured Saint are playing in Clive on 8-19-2023.
How do I choose which of these legendary concerts I actually attend? It's a difficult decision.
I have an answer: don't decide. Instead, go with your family to an Iowa Cubs baseball game in Des Moines. I am not going to see any of those concerts on 8-19-2023. I am going to watch baseball.

Spitalfield and Bayside?!?!

In addition to the news that Spitalfield have reunited and are playing in Des Moines on Saturday, August 8-19, I learned that Spitalfield is playing in Council Bluffs at the Iowa is for Lovers 2 day festival... WITH BAYSIDE ALSO ON THE BILL!!!!!

Simmering in the Background

When Bayside literally drives through Iowa on their way from Lincoln, NE, to Chicago, IL, where I will be is up in the air. There's a chance - 50/50 - that I may be leaving for Las Vegas on 2-26-2023 for the Pink23 conference! I have submitted a session description to be a speaker and, as of 10-20-2022 @ 7:52 AM, I do not know if I have been accepted as a speaker at the conference. The conference is the one I attended in 2020 about ITIL and it has a James Bond theme, which would be really awesome!



Driving Through IA without Stopping

Life is frustrating. My favorite band - BAYSIDE - is going on tour in 2023 and the tour dates do not include stopping in Iowa.



If I do have the chance to go to Chicago on 2-26-2022, I would purchase VIP tickets. As of right now, that'd be $310.50 for me and $310.50 for my friend who goes with me. It's at the Metro and I have never attended a concert there.

I hope it works out!

Bayside Gets Snubbed!

On this page - https://loudwire.com/trivium-matt-heafy-pop-punk-past-covers-blink-182-dammit-anthony-vincent - there is a section called 50 Greatest Pop-Punk Albums of All-Time and to say I'm disappointed is an understatement.
