boomerSoundLevelEleven ~ what does it mean?
in the movie This Is Spinal Tap, the scene where they turn the amp sound level up to 11 always spoke to me. i'm a boomer, i like my music frequently, with frequency and ecclectically. i toyed with the thought of titling the blog my generation for the great boomer anthem given us by TheWho, but decided on boomerSoundLevelEleven because it was more in keeping with the feeling i had when i decided to create this blog.
i was watching vh1classic and was expecting to see Nirvana videos [in their entirety], but instead what i got was mostly talking heads and no i don't mean the band, and only snippets of actual music. and then it occurred to me: i'm a modern woman of the 21st century, with an infinite amount of internet resources literally at my fingertips. why should i gnash my teeth in frustration because i have been duped yet again by the description on the program grid of my tv. when my appetite has been whetted for music, and more specifically music videos, darn it i'm going to satisfy that craving. these vids are some of my favs...i hope you enjoy them too.
