Hank Williams is floating in Space – CED 2014 part 3

Today is day 3 of the “Creative Everyday Challenge, 2014″.  Where I draw something and post it every day.  I bit off a bit more than I can chew AGAIN tonight, I would like to work on this a lot more…and obviously the background is stock image, but hey it works.

Sticking to the theme, “past, present and future” tonight I bring you, Hank Williams Sr. floating through space.  Hank passed tragically 51 years ago this week, so I have been thinking about him and his music a lot this week.  Ive actually had this idea in the hopper since about Tuesday.  Not to get to existential about things, but his legacy lives on here on planet earth, big time.  So many songs, so many folks influenced by his songs, and so on and so on.  Like branches of a tree.  That set aside… his music was transmitted by radio waves in the 40s and 50s, which would put those same waves somewhere like 50 light years away from planet earth (roughly, science folks if you can exact this one please do so).  Anyhow, this got me thinking, Ol Hiram is floating out there somewhere in space, in wave form… and if there is anyone listening they will hear that BEFORE Disco, Vanilla Ice, and Luke Bryan – all things that bode well for us not getting destroyed in some plasma ray hate bomb from afar.

 

Anyway, Cheers.  Installment 3 in the books.
