Hey, baby, it’s the 4th of July! 

That was fast.  Seems we got here in a hurry this year. 

Holidays are meant for remembering and when I do I think about growing up in the east with parades and Little League games and barbeques and days at the beach and a party somewhere and, of course, some fireworks.  Maybe those things haven’t changed but when I think back they seem a little more special because holidays—like a lot in life—just feel that way when you’re young.

Wherever I was there’s a good chance some rock ‘n’ roll was playing on the radio and when this holiday comes around there are a couple of songs in particular I can’t not think about.  Which means I listen to them again, and now through this thing called the internet, you can too.  Enjoy the holiday, folks, wherever you are.
