“Sour Grapes” is a song about the times. It’s a WAR Time song… Performed by Basement Rebellion Volume up yall!! This song is meant to be played loud. It will be available everywhere on March 15th. Jesse Stover helped write the 🎶 lyrics 20 years ago. Michael Bowman produced it. It was recorded by Carl Brooks of the The Findells. Music making is best when it’s a group effort. The video was a fun art project, random shots of stuff around my house with Oliver and a few AI pics for good measure. Lyrics are: Plates & plates of sour Grapes Gasoline flows like wine Power by the hour With mechanical flowers The land of the free is fine It sure is fine You can do whatever You want to do That’s what they’ll be telling you You can be whatever you want to be But sooner or later all you’ll see Is plates and plates of sour grapes Bombs on a tray. Peace talks But peace don’t walk I see it running away It’s running away Click here to save it- /hyperfollow/basementrebellion/sour-grapes?utm_campaign=website&utm_medium=Email+&utm_source=SendGrid #war #harrisonburg #sourgrapes #musiclife #life

Ugh, I’m so sorry about @goldenponyva it was one of the few places we played that it felt ok to be loud and wild. Truly was Time well spent. Very thankful to @paulsomers and all the wonderful staff over the years. Amazing space. It will be missed. Here’s a new take on an old tune we wrote. The art in the video is all on my walls. If you recognize yours…thanks ! The song asks the question “ how can you balance Grief with Time well spent?” I think it gives an answer… Thanks for listening. Good luck Harrisonburg, we are gonna have to make some new spaces to rock. #harrisonburg #basementrebellion #rocknroll #timewellspent #time

Made some collards, used my old @thelittlegrillva recipe. That’s @drhowtrtl playing in the background with the amazing Bruce on Mandolin. It’s the vinegar that I really love in My collards, fresh tomato, chunks of onions, Lots of cut chopped garlic… salt to taste. Then you can drink the juice and it makes you feel like a healthy human.even when you know your not 🤣 Enjoy! #harrisonburg #collardgreens #mandolin
