Favor (90/365)

Favor (90/365)

Eric & Katie had lovely wedding favors and sadly I had to dismantle this morning to pack. Monday.

KNAPSACK - "Simple Favor"

Send "Simple Favor" Ringtone to your Cell
Sitting close, under hush of mother told me
We're not waiver
We load you on cities too much
It is too

Take this cross
Somehow I'm lost without my anchor
Cut this rope I never wash
I am sunk with out this anchor

Now I'm struck with the beauty of this favor
It is too much
Now I'm numb wanna cut me with their razors
Well, they will cut you with their razors

We spoke soft we lived across i was unstable
We load you on cities too much
It is too

Now I'm struck with the beauty of this favor
It is too much
Now I'm numb wanna cut me with their razors
Well, they will cut you with their razors

Wheel (89/365)

Wheel (89/365)

The Wheel of Death at the Renaissance Festival!

BOB DYLAN - "Wagon Wheel"

Headed down south to the land of the pines,
I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline
Starin' up the road,
Pray to God I see headlights

Oh, I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh
I can see my baby tonight

So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama anyway you feel
Hey mama rock me
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
Hey mama rock me

Runnin' from the cold up in New England
I was born to be a fiddler in an old-time string band
My baby plays the guitar
I pick a banjo now

Oh, the North country winters keep a gettin' me now
Lost my money playin' poker so I had to up and leave
But I ain't a turnin' back
To livin' that old life no more

So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama anyway you feel
Hey mama rock me
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
Hey mama rock me

Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
I caught a trucker out of Philly
Had a nice long toke
But he's a headed west from the Cumberland Gap
To Johnson City, Tennessee

And I gotta get a move on fit for the sun
I hear my baby callin' my name
And I know that she's the only one
And if I die in Raleigh
At least I will die free

So rock me mama like a wagon wheel
Rock me mama anyway you feel
Hey mama rock me
Rock me mama like the wind and the rain
Rock me mama like a south-bound train
Hey mama rock me

Question (88/365)

Question (88/365)

Eric asked Katie the question and today was their fantastic wedding. It's not every bride that can actually harness the sun for her wedding.

THE OLD 97's – "Question"

She woke from a dream
Her head was on fire
Why was he so nervous?

He took her to the park
She crossed her arms
And lowered her eyelids

Some day somebody's gonna ask you
A question that you should say yes to
Once in your life
Maybe tonight I've got a question for you

She'd had no idea
She started to cry
She said in a good way

He took her by the hand
Walked her back home
They took the long way

Some day somebody's gonna ask you
A question that you should say yes to
Once in your life
Baby tonight I've got a question for you

Bicycle (87/365)

Bicycle (87/365)

It's the perfect bicycle wedding cake topper for Eric & Katie's Wedding Rehearsal Dinner.

THE MAX LEVINE ENSEMBLE - "Bicycle As Insurance Plan"

She said “calm down, it’s just a bicycle,”
Well I said, “it’s not as if I’d expect you to know,
I mean, it’s not as if I think you’d understand,
This is my insurance plan.”
And we’d been lost and called cops on the shadows,
And thought it was a way to feel safe in the dark,
But it wasn’t.
And the thought that our right to feel free was contingent,
On the places we walked wasn’t fair to begin with,
And I’d been walking back and forth for my whole life,
And thought of distance as an indicator,
Of the things we can’t reach for our limitations,
Though speed was suggested, the alleged way of,
Crossing that space to your destination,
They said “you go out, start the investigation.”

So lost again in the rain on fourth street,
There was a chain, not of events (those blurred)
But of a broken bike in an unknown town,
That whispered “it’s time you learned about exploration.”
And it went Fairview, Maple, Waldron, Gist,
And separated only by the shadows of the summer,
Downtown melted and I stepped out past midnight,
Into a world of idle roads and streetlights,
And I thought “this is what it’s like to feel in control.”
And I remember, feeling freer in the cold outside,
Through wind, down streets on a dark night ride,
Thinking “distance only is as it’s defined.”
And all this talk of taking matters into our own hands,
Was embodied by the passing pavement under,
And embodied in a way we could understand.

River (86/365)

River (86/365)

Checking out the New River.

OKKERVIL RIVER - "Down Down The Deep River"

Spit into the center of your hometown, there are leaves in the street,
and there are friends around you now. All the days of your life in a line.
All the way it seemed by 89...

But it's not all right. It's not even close to all right.

Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)
Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)

We lie awake at night in a tent and I say,
Tell me about your uncle and his friend
because they seem like very bad men.
Well we oughtta keep away from them.
Bend in the road back there, we saw the place to go.
Tell me 'bout the greatest show or the greatest movie you know
or the greatest song that you taped from off the radio.
Play it again and again it cuts off at the ending though.
Tell me I'm always gonna be your best friend.
Now you said it one time, why don't you say it again?
All the way down the line to where the telephone ends
come on and shout it on down the wire.

And it's not all right.
It's not even close to all right.

Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)
Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)

And as the rescue party, the volunteer team ah,
they're just kids of eighteen, and it's the worst thing
they've seen they're standing all around that tree,
and I'm so sorry that I can't stop crying.

(Oh, I know.)

Shivering from the late fall cold,
I felt like a solid ghost.
I ran and then I couldn't slow.
My father found me though, my father took me home.
He said, Oh, son, I saw you get knocked down,
and I ran out I bet your head was spinning.
With that bright pain you stunned,
when you've only just begun to be only just beginning.
Tossed in the viper pit, all those feelings and fears,
and all that difficult shit in all those tender years.
There was something in the air; something gathered in the air.
Something singing in the wind.

I'll be your fighter and you'll be my mirror.
And you'll be all right because I'll be right here.
Oh kid, now I'm not going anywhere.
I swear I'll try to not be going anywhere.

Though it's not all right. It is so far from all right.
We'll make it into a choice somehow.
I don't know, but you'll have a choice somehow.

Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)
We can never go back; we can only remember
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)

Maybe they told you 'bout the summer sky,
maybe they said there's a great gold spirit in the summer sky
or all your friends (all your best, best friends)
are gonna gather around your bed at night.
Well that'll make it all right because it is still so far from all right. Oh, kid, I know.

Down a hall in your house, down a road in December
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)
Up the stairs four flights, son; can you feel my heart shiver?
(Down, down, down the deep river, down, down, down the deep river)
Wakin' in the dawn with that dream getting dimmer and dimmer.

I said, Are we going down the deep river? Down the deep river?
Why don't you say you still see it, say you remember? Are we going down?
Are we going down the deep river? Because I know it's scary, baby.

Pillow (85/365)

Pillow (85/365)


Now I know how all the dog hair ends up on my pillow.

DEAN MARTIN - "Send Me The Pillow You Dream On"

(So darling I can dream on it too)
Send me the pillow that you dream on
Don't you know that I still care for you
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling I can dream on it too

Each night while I'm sleeping oh so lonely
I'll share your loving dreams that once were true
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling I can dream on it too

(I've waited so long for you to write me)
But just a memory's all that's left of me
So send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling I can dream on it too
So darling I can dream on it too

Cory Branan @ Capitol Theatre Macon 3.22.14



Check out more photos from Cory's set here.

Tulip (84/365)



These tulips were saved from premature droopiness by ikebana.

MUSTARD PLUG - "Murder In The Tulip City"

Murder In Tulip City.
The story you're about to hear is true.
Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent.
This could happen to any city.
It could happen to your city, but it didn't.
It happened in Tulip City.
Murder In The Tulip City!
In Tulip City you have the right to remain silent.
You have the right to attorney.
You have the right to wear funny wooden shoes.
You have the right to eat rusks.
You have the right to redeem double coupons on Tuesdays.
But most of all, you have the right to fear for your life
As you tread in the shadow of the Dutch Mafia.
Murder In The Tulip City!

My name's Agent 357.
I've seen a lot of destruction in my day.
But nothing that compares to Tulip City.
Bodies floating down the Grande,
Poison windmill cookies,
People mowing their lawns on Sundays.
You see, nothing is as obscene and unsightly
As when decent, honest, hard-working, upstanding people
Take control of the underground.
