Music in your dreams

One of my favorite music stories is one about a dream that Stevie Ray Vaughan had. Apparently he woke up one morning in a bad mood and his then wife asked him why he was in a bad mood. He said that he had a dream that Jimi Hendrix had come to him and taught him these secret chord changes, but Stevie was mad because when he woke up he couldn't remember them. I once had a dream that King Diamond came to me and wanted me to play in his band for a show he was playing at my high school. I woke up right after that so the dream didn't get to go any farther. Then another time I had a dream that I wrote a song and Kevin Dubrow liked it and wanted to buy it from me. That was a scary dream to think that I might have been responsible for something that ended up on a Quiet Riot album. Have you had a dream with a musician in it?

  2. Totally cool post - I love(d) Stevie Ray. I've had plenty of dreams about muscians but the one that stands out was actually a day dream. I was riding my bike and thinking about Jim Morrison and "listening" to riders on the storm in my head and I closed my eyes for a minute, hit a rock and went flying off the bike and broke my arm.

  5. Bruce-She has always scared me.

    Bar-That's a painful reality.

    Ben-That is looking less and less likely at this point.

    Mike-I am afraid that Waynestock sounds a little catchier than Mikestock.

    Mimi-Most of my dreams involve flying and time travel. I guess that is a little strange.

    Ranea-I once had a dream that I was giving blood and I woke up and one of my cats was sucking on my arm.

    Phoenix-At least you didn't dream that your were in Grease or at least I hope you didn't.

  6. Steve-Even in a dream Blaze Bayley wouldn't have the right to make fun of anyone else's singing.
