My number one pet peeve about drumming, is that everyone thinks they can do it. Every drum circle of hippies I've been to, I want to confiscate their drums. You have fancy djembes, darboukas, and all sorts of frame drums and tambourines and shakers - but you can't count to four, let alone subdivide it.
There's so much going on around us now and being the beginning of the year, so many different feelings of optimism and concern in the year ahead. So this weekend's music thread is about feelings, happy or sad, righteous anger or compassionate love, share your favorite songs about feelings.
To soothe his fragile nerves, Donald Trump listens to his special, "The Best, Most, Magnificent Playlist, Ever in the History of Man, Believe Me!". Fortunately, we've got a copy right here!
From Hillary Clinton's version of The Christmas Song: "Trump's nuts roasting on an open fire. Bernie's nipping at your heels. Wall Street's bankrolls being snagged by your PAC, And you dressed up like Lib-er-als."
"I'm proud to be a Democrat where at least I can fistbump.
And I won't forget the Repubs who've tried, to elect a douche named Trump."
Welcome to the jungle, folks! Another weekend music thread has come our way. With all the events of the past few years, and the GOP still promoting social Darwinism, I can only conclude, that it's a jungle out there, and by "there," I mean right here in the good ole, bad ole U S of A!
Welcome to the Weekend Music Thread folks! I'm not quite sure what it sounds like, but I think I just heard the sound of Hell freezing over. Maybe it's the combined sounds of GOP heads exploding, over the recent Supreme Court decision to OK gay marriage across the board.
Hey Planet folk! This weekend's music thread is about people and places and dreams. There are so many people in song, living in places all over the world, and all of them/us have our dreams.
I thought that for this weekend's music thread it would be fun to post any example of duality with two songs in a single box that portray an opposite. We could also post a single song and have someone else post a song that portrays it's opposite.
Hey peeps! It's time, once again for the weekend music thread. We had a weekend thread several weeks ago where people would post mini-themes, on whatever subject they wanted. There were some really good ones, let's do it again!

We Need to Stop Playing Trump’s Game
It is long past time to stop playing Trump’s game of racism, hate, misogyny, and abject greed. If Trump is elected, he will end democracy as we know it. Harris will preserve it and work to make it better and far more inclusive so we can have it, as Lincoln said, a more perfect union. It will only happen if you vote.
