Jesus freaks

the boulevard is not that bad

What a show. The technology in this show was very impressive, but then, he always has a great show with a strong vision.

His new album "Is This The Life We Really Want" is released this week.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter


It's been a long, a long time coming

It's been too hard living, but I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there, beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

"It was twenty years ago today Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play....."

And 50 years ago this month that ‘Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' was released in U.S.



( I always liked Joe Cocker's version and maybe we can all use some help...... )

Indonesia's hijab-wearing Muslim metal band Voice of Baceprot challenges stereotypes

GARUT (Indonesia) • With their heads covered with hijabs, the three members of Indonesian band VoB (Voice of Baceprot) do not look like your typical heavy metal group.

Formed in 2014, the band of teenagers met at school in Indonesia's most populous province of West Java, and use their music to combat the stereotype of Muslim women as submissive or voiceless.

Wearing a hijab should not be a barrier to the pursuit of their dream of being heavy metal stars, said Firdda Kurnia, 16, who plays the guitar and sings. "I think gender equality should be supported because I feel I am still exploring my creativity, while at the same time, not diminishing my obligations as a Muslim woman," she added.

Invited to perform at a recent graduation ceremony at another school, the trio quickly had fans dancing and head-banging at the front of the stage.

"I don't see anything wrong with it," said one fan who attended, Teti Putriwulandari Sari. "There's no law that bars hijab-wearing women from playing hardcore music. This also relates to human rights. If a Muslim girl has a talent to play the drums or guitar, should she not be allowed?"

Besides covering classics by groups such as Metallica and Slipknot, the band perform their own songs on issues such as the state of education in Indonesia.

Not everyone in the town of Garut, where the band were formed and which is home to several Islamic schools, feels the community is ready for them or that their music is appropriate for performance by young Muslim women.

"It is unusual to see a group of hijab-wearing girls playing metal music or even women shouting," said Mr Muhammad Sholeh, a teacher at the town's Cipari Islamic boarding school, adding that religious pop music is popular with many young Muslims. "But we're talking about metal here, which is loud."

Maudya Mulyawati, a student at the school, felt the band should focus on singing Salawat, an invocation to the religion's founder, Prophet Mohammad.

An official of a top clerical body said although the group might trigger a culture clash in a conservative area, he did not feel they broke with Islamic values.

"I see this as part of the creativity of teenagers," said Mr Nur Khamim Djuremi, secretary-general of the Islamic Art and Culture Division of Indonesia's Ulema Council.

I feel depressed, I feel so bad

I can't get your love, I can't get a fraction

psychotic reaction

And it feels like this!

Woke up this morning with light in my eyes
And then realized it was still dark outside
It was a light comin'down from the sky
I don't know who or why


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgD4CH_LeFU

Woke up this mornin', I was feeling quite weird
Had flies in my beer, my tooth paste was smeared
I opened my window, they'd written my name
Said: "So long, we'll see you again".

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride
