Hey Guys,

When I'm feeling down... or when I'm feeling good, I always listen to music. What kind of music do you listen to? What songs help you get through the rough patches and which songs help you celebrate a great day?

Great songs for Chillin and calming;

Mat Kearney-All I need, James Blunt and Tegan and Sarah

Songs For that unusually good day when there is little pain!

Barenaked Ladies, and Tom Petty.

TOM PETTY!!! I think I will try it, it sounds like a good idea. Thank you

Music is something I hold near and dear to my heart. Not only does it get me through the tough times, confirm my happinness in the good times, it is my life. I have been making music for 15 years and although I have been faced with RA ending my career on a few ocassions, music gets me through.

I've always been a music person. Well, sort of. I'm tone deaf as they come. Hahaha But I LOVE bands n stuff. There are so many songs that by the first note I hear, in my head I've already recalled the memory or event attached to it. Sometimes I can even get smells to come back with it, it can be so strong. :) Through the years I've gone through many different bands and types. But they've always evoked some kind of emotion. If it DOESN'T make you cry, smile, sing, feel antsy, feel peaceful, feel pain, feel fear, feel ANYTHING, then it's just not music.i used to have lots of problems with my jaw. it still hurts some but it doesnt pop as much and i can open my mouth wider then i used to be able to...thanks to my night guard....My jaw has been doing that to me too lately, and I LOVE to sing
along to my iPod!

Fave music right now: Barenaked Ladies are and always will
be my fave band!
Will Hoge (not well known yet, good southern rock)
The Fray (even though they are more mainstream now, I
listened to them way back when!)

I used to go to a ton of concerts in Charleston, SC (where I went
to college). They always have bands at the little local bars, and
those bands make it big. I saw John Mayer, Vanessa Carlton,
and The Fray before they made it big. I even met the Fray in
summer of 05 at a beach bar concert. I still have the set list!
