Interview With Daniel Correa

By


1. Where are we talking from today? A. Miami, Florida.

2. Where did you get your artist name from? A. It’s my name. The Collective Bus part is from the word Colectivo, which is a type of bus commonly found in parts of South America. The idea of a rotating cast of players, sans myself of course.

3. Music wise what are you working on right now? Are you currently promoting a single or album? A. There are a few different projects floating in the stratosphere. I write constantly. My last single Take A Chance as well as my entire catalog can be on Spotify though.

4. Who or what were the most significant influences on your musical life and career? A. Michiro Endo of The Stalin has had the biggest impact on me as a performer. Musical influences depend on what I’m working on, but I always go back to Stevie Wonder, Mitski, Neil Cicierega. More importantly, I owe a lot to my family and friends who push me to be a better person, which matters the most to me.

5. Who are your favorite musicians? A. My favorite musicians are those I value as individuals who also happen to be great musicians/composers. People like: Zachary Di Lello, Dorothy Hindman(check out Setting Century, it’s dope), EMIA, Carlos Riviera, Kat Reinhert, and many many more

 6. What have been the greatest challenges/frustrations of your career so far? A. You have to put so much in before you can get a return on your investment. There’s a lot of gate keeping in this industry that’s being slowly corroded away.

7. As a musician, what is your definition of success? A. Being able to be without worrying about what you have to do because you don’t have to do anything.

8. What is your idea of perfect happiness? A. When your unconscious self has been satisfied enough that it lifts you into an alternate state of being. One of humility and grace.

9. What is your present state of mind? A. I’m as well as my anxiety and depression will allow. Everything is honestly pretty great, but mental illness is a seedy, deceptive creature.

10. What is your most treasured possession? A. Friendships!

11. What do you enjoy doing most? A. Writing music or playing DND, it’s always a toss-up between these two.
12. Where would you like to be in 10 years’ time? A. In the pit moshing with friends and strangers alike while making a comfy salary to support me and others, creating more avenues for opportunity and success.

13. Where you @ online?
A. You can find pretty much everything at danielcorrea.com.

Eminem "Revival" Album Review

By
The best and worst Eminem record I've ever heard.  Album Rating 3 out of 4.  Song Rating System 4 out of 4 - Really liked  3 out of 4 - Liked  2 out of 4 - Didn't like  1 out of 4 - No response  "Revival" is the ninth studio album by American rapper Eminem . The album was released on December 15th, 2017 through Aftermath Entertainment , Shady Records , and Interscope Records . ( Wikipedia )  1. Walk On Water ( feat. Beyonce ) - 4 out of 4 - Probably will go down as one of the most underrated of Eminem's hits. The song encompasses all of the talents and personalities of one of this generations greatest artist. Unlike some of his prior works, the song is not set on a grand stage but a simple piano-driven beat with raw, honest lyrics and a beautiful hook from Beyonce. 2. Believe - 2 out of 4 - It's interesting to hear Eminem switch it up and rap over more trap-like beats. Honestly, he does it better than most of the yo...

1. Where are we talking from today?      A. I'm in Nashville, TN 2. Where did you get your artist name from? A. I was the lead guitarist for Rock & Roll Hall of fame Leon Russell from 2005 to 2007.  When I joined the band I had long curly hair.  Leon mentioned to me after a couple of gigs that he thought that  "I ought to have a power name".  Hence that day, I became J. "Curly" Speegle...  He was big on that sort of thing.  His real name was Claude Russell Bridges, so it kinda made sense. 3. Music wise, what are you working on right now? A. I'm actually on a hiatus at the moment.  I started touring at 19 or 20 and stayed there for a lot of years, so I'm just enjoying a little downtime... 4.

Well, Leon Russell obviously.  But there are a lot more that are pretty significant as well.  There is a gentleman by the name of Owen...

WWE TLC - No Tables No Ladders No Chairs?

By
TLC Highlights  The WWE paper view definitely lived up to the hype, well i guess. The paper view itself was great. Every match on the card was exciting, entertaining but there was just one problem, no tables no ladders no chairs. To call itself a TLC paper view the only match that used anything of the sort was the main event. The rest of the nights card featured traditional matches in traditional style. As mentioned earlier over all the matches were great but if your going to call it a TLC paper view actually have matches involved with tables, ladders and chairs.  Asuka vs. Emma  Winner - Asuka  Cedric Alexander & Rich Swann vs. Gentleman Jack Gallagher & The Brian Kendrick Winners - Cedric Alexander & Rich Swann  Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss vs. Mickie James Winner - Alexa Bliss WWE Cruiserweight Champion Kalisto vs. Enzo Amore Winner - Enzo Amore  Finn Bálor vs. AJ Styles Winner - Finn Balor  ...
