#JuteBox

have you ever wanted to kiss a car?

[techniiciian]

“do you remember, matt?”

the blonde’s gaze cast heavily onto the being beside him, the words sinking in slowly only to unlock something deep within him. the flicker of faint recognition blossoms in his hazel eyes as memories flood him. it causes his spine to straighten, his chin to be held higher. his heart hammers in his chest, a drum beating in time with sounds that cascade into a familiar symphony so only he can hear inside his head and heart. “of course i remember.”

his right hand slowly crosses to his left side, his shoulder curling with the motion as if he’s reaching for something that might just be in his left pocket. the look on his face is unreadable, his determination grave. but just as those finger tips nearly brush against the seem of his pants his arms snaps out and into the air on his right side. his pointer finger extended as his hips cock to the left as his left leg extends to the side.

matt remembers the 21st night of september.

Jutebox musical… save me…

A drive along memory lane.

Burn the Jutebox

"I have to get up early for work"

"I didn't bring a change of clothes"

"There's a good chance it will rain"

All of these (plus a few more) are the reasons I was using to convince myself NOT go to the Osceola County Faire this evening.

I went anyways.

I'm glad I did.

Burn the Jutebox is a group of extremely talented youngsters (I can say that because I'm closer my 100th birthday then my 1st) I follow on social media. They are a great cover band and play songs from the 70's all the way up to modern music.

Now, I've seen hundreds of new bands go by on posts while scrolling through social media and I follow none of them. But this group was different.

They have a great respect for classic rock n roll by playing songs recorded decades before they were even born. They also have the skills to do many different genres very well.

But the reason I really took noticed was the energy.

Looks to me like they really enjoy the music they play and have a real genuine passion for it.

Personally, I love a good rhythm section and this one was a good one.

The young lady holding down the bottom end played a really good bass guitar and had a great honest blend of engery and musicianship. I love to see women who rock!

Which in turn reminded me so much of someone else who felt like that about music at their age. ME.

I know I don't mention it often on here, but I had many years where I followed my love for music through being a drummer/songwriter in various bands.

First in my late teens and twenties. Playing lots of shows but never finding the right combination of people.

As that search continued I ran into real life. I got married, had to get steady day job, kept fighting with my gender disphoria and the dream of being a working musician faded.

I revived it in my late thirties after connecting with an old friend who turned out to be a great songwriting partner.

We wrote some awesome songs and played regularly live, but focused to much on orginal music. This made it hard to connect with audiences (and get steady gigs) and mixing in covers would have been wise.

Of course, hindsight is always 20/20.

We did write some really good songs (I think) with my songwriting partner doing the guitars and vocals, while I wrote the lyrics, co-wrote and arranged the songs.

Yes, recordings and pictures from this time frame do exsist. But I hesitate to share them. The recordings are dated (done on 4 track cassette tapes. Long before digital technology) and the pictures are of me pre-transition (so I hate looking at them). Ask me nice and I might share.

But the struggles were bad and I hung it up again until my fifties when things finally clicked into place for a while.

I was in a working cover band that had an agent, played lots of shows and actually made money! TRIAX played all over the mountain west in bars, clubs, weddings, fairs, and lots of corporate events.

It was a glorious time. At least musicly.

Until things fell apart. Again.

Hearing Burn the Jutebox play many of the same songs I once did really sent me down memory lane with a stop at nostalgia place.

Maybe, someday, I can play a few live shows again.

But that seems wildly far-fetched, highly improbable and darn near impossible.

Still, when I was watching BTJ play "Saturday Nights Alright", "Sex is on Fire", "Take on Me" and a kick butt version of "The Immigrant Song" I couldn't help but wonder....What if?

Apparently taylor didn’t let max use pieces of her catalog for his jutebox musical and other artists were fine.

Will we ever see them collab on a song again?? Do you think Taylor’s being too much by not letting him use her music ??

wasn’t that just a blind item

[adamrenfro]

Me: Jutebox Hero is a dumb song. Spouse: I think that’s JUKEbox Hero. Me: What'd I say? Spouse: Jutebox. Me: Well, when the Anglos, Saxons, and Jutes invaded England, guess who brought the boxes? The Jutes were god-like, true heroes in their boxing and packing capabilities. Spouse: It's okay to be wrong sometimes. Me: I know. It's a sickness.

Layla wasn't sure what exactly had got into Kaede tonight, he was a little more publically affectionate than usual — even though the bar was closed. He initiated it. Not that she'd ever complain, deep down Layla did love the moments where her love langauge of touch were matched back at her. To her it was a sign he'd grown a lot more comfortable in their relationship. The way he reached out for her felt completely natural, not forced. It was a good sign.

"I'm determined to work all of them out." Layla hums, after pulling back from the kiss. She neglects the uncleaned glasses next to her to stay well in the moment shared between them. "You should tell me these things, so I can play them." Lazily, Layla let's her arms settle and dangle over his shoulders, tilting her head to side. "I really like dancing with you — I like spending time with you in general — But this is special." Like their own personal secret moments only seen by the walls of The Reef.

"I was going to say no, but now I really wanna know what you 'stepping it up' looks like." A question posed in jest, only now pulling away to head to the bar's Jutebox. She types in a song. "As requested." A smile promtply shoots over her shoulder towards Kaede, "I like this version the best." There was something about the original King Harvest version of Dancing in the Moonlight had a bit more soul, a bit more romance to it. Something closer to the songs they'd enjoyed dancing to in the past.

"I promise to make the late night worth it for you, then."

“ are you trying to find out all my secret favorites? “ Kaede mused with a small smile. “ Songs about the moon. Anytime one comes on it makes me think about when you picked Moondance. Dancing in the Moonlight is one I’ve been wanting to dance with you here in the bar for a while “ he admitted before leaning forward to kiss her. It was one of those kisses that just felt so right in the moment.

“ are you already getting tired of me? Oh man I better step it up “ Kaede teased as he took a step back after the kiss. He didn’t think much of it; enjoying the fact that he was able to play around now. That was a part of his life he didn’t think he’d be able to have again. “ it could be fun. I’d like for us to not be stuck in the building for once as a business “

“ the only passing out I would wanna do is us cuddled together. But I intend to spend the rest of the night entertaining you and keeping your attention” @ponderosus

Moments in musicals people don’t talk about #6

The first time Strat sings “like a bat out of Hell” and the motorcycle takes off. The projections just look magical. It makes me want to jump on the back of a motorcycle with a stranger.

[ai-dont-care]

this broadway season was so good im so happy we got so many great musicals

[werewolfbarista]

@plushysunfish said this would sound really good if i sang it so,,, here it is!!

i think it sounds a bit awkward, but that’s just cause i’m trying to find my voice again-- it’s hard to actually sing right now because it’s changing really fast and figuring my range out is a bit of a mess!
