Changing with the times

I'm so tired of going day in and day out thinking about what to blog. By the time I get home the moment is gone and I end up not blogging. I also have this expectation on myself that I have to post a pic of some sort. I just like the idea a lot and I have so many pics...but then I can't decide. I truly make too much out of this mainly since only like 3 people end up reading these. Today's pics are not very super selections, they just go with what I'm saying, I think.

It amazes me how Ireland just builds upon it's own historic buildings. most of the historic buildings are still being used to official purposes. In one of the pics you can see and old chapel with a not so old building next to it and in the background a brand new building being built. The other pic is the Dublin Castle. The Record Tower was build in 1220s The Chapel Royal was built in 1760s and the rest of the building was finished 1960s. A bit crazy I thought. I chopped the pics a bit so you can see how it was built hopefully, well it makes sense to my brain.

Listening to: Iron Maiden, A Matter of Life and Death....they're huge in Ireland and I like them. Here's a band that has been able to make a very successful career without ever selling out in any way. That's no radio airplay or any kind and the only time their video was ever played on MTV (back when they actually played videos) was on a show that played from 12a to 3a on Sat. The only way their music has truly evolved is in the way that recordings and mixing styles has changed with the times.
See, here's the thing with "progressive rock" The style is known for the way it changes even within a song and...well progresses. So the style lends itself for a whole lot of exploration and evolution without ever sounding like they've departed from their actual root. Well the band members also do solo projects so they can explore further into other styles.
