Parking Garage Music<\/h3>\n

I’m writing some tunes to be played out of the Muzak system of the big parking garage in town. Currently, it plays obnoxious baroque music, designed to annoy skateboarders. There is a pretty good coffee shop underneath it, with nice outdoor seating, but which is totally ruined by the classical music warfare, otherwise known as a nonviolent deterrent. Yeah, there’s a reason the Pentagon studies how people react to music. I think it might count as some form of psychic violence. So I never sit outside the parking garage and i get coffee there less often than i would otherwise.<\/p>\n

So next weekend, we’re having a music festival which is taking over the muzak system. And I have tunes for it that will not annoy me, but may annoy everyone else.<\/p>\n
