#resound11: Theme Song

Last year’s Reverb 10 project has become Resound 11.

If your life was a television show, what would its theme song be? What music would be cued at the start of the show or when you entered a scene?

For this year, at least, I’d say: “Let’s Go Get ‘Em.”

The version above is actually two songs, performed by the TBC Brass Band. They can be found on the corner of Bourbon and Canal Streets in New Orleans, most often on Sundays.

I chose this song for a few reasons.

• It’s a New Orleans classic, and y’all know how I feel about New Orleans.
• It makes me want to dance my face off in the middle of the street — any street.
• The title, “Let’s Go Get ‘Em,” is, I think, how I’ve approached this year, though not consciously so.

The amount of sheer change that has occurred in my life this last year is pretty astounding. I did so much, that I didn’t even have a chance to stop and freak out over most of it. I just had to STFU and do it.

Y’know, I had to get ‘em. <misterjt>Let’s go!</misterjt>
