Friday 5

By October 26, 2018Friday Five
Aloha!
It’s Friday, which means it’s time for another edition of the Friday 5. Enjoy!
What I’m Listening To
Here’s your Halloween playlist, courtesy of Billboard 🙂
What I’m Watching
Alain de Botton is one of my favorite modern-day philosophers and authors because he relates classic philosophies to the present day. I’ve shared his books before, this time it’s a video. For those brave enough 🙂 Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person – Alain de Botton
Quote
I’ve sent this one before, and it’s always worth revisiting.
“But we must not forget that only a very few people are artists in life; that the art of life is the most distinguished and rarest of all the arts. Who ever succeeded in draining the whole cup with grace? So for many people all too much unlived life remains over – sometimes potentialities which they could never have lived with the best of wills; and so they approach the threshold of old age with unsatisfied claims which inevitably turn their glances backward.” Carl Jung in Modern Man In Search of a Soul.
What I’ll be Doing Next Weekend
Well, I have a couple of shows with my band, and an appointment at my favorite Napa winery…but I’ll definitely be carving out some time to see Bohemian Rhapsody, a biographical movie about Freddie Mercury and the rock band, Queen. I see a little silhouetto of a man…
Music Science
Have a great weekend!

PS You can help to keep the Friday 5 going. This has always been a labor of love, and yet there are costs to hosting the website and an ever-growing email list. Consider supporting with $2 or more dollars per month. Thanks!
