Despite being a fan of nearly all of their pre-albums, we have to admit we’ve been pretty sour on the last couple of Counting Crows albums.

Op-Ed
…..we’re steadily working at trying to get more posts up this year. We’ve hit a wall since April and have found ourselves quite busy. Most of April was spent celebrating my 40th birthday and shuffling between doctor’s appointments. I’m once again working through some speech therapy issues, sinus issues and of course this Wegener’s disease. This is a passion project after all and one can only post when feeling said passion. The passion lately is for film, but that’s not to say we are not shining a light on music. To that end, there’s been a lot of great music released in the last few weeks that has our interest piqued and we’re hoping this month will be more productive from the blogging side of things. Those of you that read this blog faithfully know how to reach me, so feel free to drop a line. Would love to hear from our readers. Until then, stay safe and please remind your loved ones how much they are loved as often as you damn well can.
