making the world a better place, one music lover at a time...

Do you have friends trying to get you to listen to all kinds of new bands? Do you have a stack of albums you’re trying to make it through but can’t seem to find the time to listen to? Do you have albums in your collection that you listened to once in 2002 and still haven’t made it back to yet?

Do you remember how you listened to music when you were in high school? You were in your bedroom with the door shut maybe lying on your bed wearing those big cushy headphones following along with the lyrics in the liner notes, and by the time the album got around to the third or fourth spin you were dancing around singing every word to every song while playing your imaginary drum set on the ceiling. If you remember that feeling of falling in love with an album…and you miss it…and you want it back…you are the perfect candidate for: THE PROGRAM.

My friend Matt Lumpkin and I are taking part in an experiment in music listening – a journey to get back to the point of listening to music with the purpose of loving the music you listen to and listening to the music you love. If this sounds remotely interesting to you, check out my Mog (music blog), and read more about the program.

We invite you to join us or modify the program to fit you. As long as you are getting acquainted with the music you’ve acquired and are having a good time, you are becoming a better music listener, and the world will be a better place because of it.
