Look what I found.



This was lost in an email inbox for a few months: September 3, 2010

It's definitely a Brett Dennen kind of day.
These headphones combined with life's simplest of tasks create a plot
On the train...
Two Asian girls are gossiping about texts on their hello kitty cell phones.
The lonely aged black gentleman stares out at the morning sun and looks forward to his weekend fishing plans.
The college freshman squeezes by with his iPod, a map, and over sized backpack.
The grandpa/dad/husband wears a tweed suit jacket well and catches up on the morning news.
The fashionista hairstylist sips her coffee and hawks under her over sized sunglasses.
And I sit with pearl snaps and headphones that play the music to this real life film that is showing every morning on the El. Brett Dennen plays a song for my life's soundtrack.
