so Far….
My proposal is moving along much faster as of Monday… I need to focus on finding resources off the web for both Elton and Yellowcard. I can already forsee small issues with finding more than magazine articles for Yellowcard, but I should be able to find more on the connection i’m making between the War in Iraq as well as the album’s story line direction between the songs and the band’s journey away from Jacksonville, Florida (their home) to far away California. The connections I’m trying to make between Elton’s album is one between the Watergate scandal and the depressing tone of Elton’s songs. I’m researching more on how the morals and trust between the world and it’s leaders was going downhill in the 1970s. I think that finding off line resources regarding Watergate should be fairly easy. Most of the work I have to do is in the details of the connections. But I think that I’m on a roll so far.
