I love to hear encounters like that. Good luck for a long, wonderful marriage together.

I have a couple of questions about your blog:

1) Is it OK with you if I spread some link love and link to your blog? I think my visitors would like your blog.

2) I noticed on your blog that you link to other blogs, do you think its possible for you to link to our website throwbackguy.com?

Please let me know what you think. Thanks for your time.

BM

Yours was one, and you said you might play a song at the wedding (King Monkey – Badd Mann Dann Rapp and/or King Monkey Rapp). Did you play either/neither?

I was considering resurrecting the ‘ol blog and I clicked through to your comment.

Dig this

I am also 34, living with my wife (well, still a girlfriend, but we have her two kids, two dogs, and seven cats).

Also in a crumbling building!

What a small world.

I don’t know if you remember me or not, but we met at a Cloud Cult show. I am a very good friend of Steve from the Sneeze. Anyway, I have a huge problem on my hands. I was unable to procure “49:00″ before Amazon and Tunecore made it unavailable. I was wondering if you could burn it for me and I would pay you the full fee, plus burning and handling. Of course, I will buy the actual CD as soon as I can get my hands on it — so Paul gets paid. Either way, if you live in LA, that probably means I live within 30 minutes from you and would gladly come pick it up.

Thanks,

Anthony

P.S. Why does the Mets bullpen suck balls?
P.P.S. Should I be more excited about getting Favre?

I will also say this: I struggled most of all with the father-daughter dance song. Be the Boy is right, the normal choices are all very maudlin or angry. I ended up choosing a Paul Simon song (Slip Slidin’ Away), not for its overall father-daughter significance, but for the personal significance to my Dad and I. So, if you can find a song or an artist you both love, that might be a good bet as well.

But if your family already knows the relationship between you and your father the song is nothing more than a front when deep down inside they all know the truth. Weddings are not always going to be perfect but you can paint your audience a pretty picture right? Pick a song that makes you happy. That should be all that matters. ;o)

]]> By: betheboy http://betheboy.com/about/#comment-139 Tue, 10 Jun 2008 17:09:27 +0000 #comment-139 That’s the best question anyone has ever asked me on this blog, or any other blog. Here’s my thought on this. Don’t over think things. It’s your wedding day and the symbolism of the song will largely be lost on everyone but you and your husband. Plus most songs about fathers tend to be angry or maudlin, there are very few dad songs that say “You’re flawed but I love you anyway let’s dance.” You’re best bet is to pick a song that your dad will recognize and be comfortable with dancing to. I’ll email you another suggestion too.
