A quick post of a picture that represents something I need - inspired by the EDM group challenge:
Yep, for me it's music... I always have it playing and, since I saved up for my first Sony Walkman (1983 - remember?) I've always had a selection to take with me whenever I'm out and about. My husband and I finally upgraded all our music systems a couple of years ago - we'd been running on a system made up of elements of my old Hi-Fi set and his, both well over 20 years old :o) ...overnight we changed this to the best new digital stuff we could afford and also bought a really lovely new turntable because we have hundreds of albums still on vinyl (which we still regularly play) as well as all the CDs and digital downloads. In fact we are about to start digitising all the vinyl so we can upload it to our iPods. Oh my little iPod how I love it!! I carry it everywhere with me, play it in the car; plug it into computer speakers when I work alone in the library in school holidays etc,etc.
This is a very quick sketch, rough around the edges but it conveys the message well enough. The album it is set on (I had been listening to) is 'Desperate Youth, Bloodthirsty Babes' by TV on the Radio if your'e interested - great played loud!
I never properly learned to play an instrument, though can play lots of them by ear, but I just can't get beyond the most basic sheet music. My husband is a musician though, he plays a bass. Played bass, he hasn't been in a band for a while now. When I first met him he was in a band called The Keep. Amazingly a video of them playing their song 'Sit Down' has turned up recently - filmed back in 1989!!! Where did the time go?
I will be making the draw for my giveaway on Saturday.... do leave a comment at this post if you haven't already - if you'd like the chance of receiving one of the items!
