Dabbin Dad’s Veterans Day Playlist 2016

Dabbin Dad’s 2016 Veteran’s Day Playlist – “You know what music is? God’s little reminder that there’s something else besides us in this universe; harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars.” – Robin Williams

I wanted to continue the tradition of creating a Veteran’s Day Playlist.  Music is great form of meditation and therapy.  I decided a while back to pick up the bass guitar again.  I give myself some time each week to try to untap from life and attempt to create something fun.  I’ve put together a playlist of songs that mean something different to me, remind me where I came from and express how I feel / felt at times in the service. Let me know what songs are important to you, by leaving a comment below.

#1.  Metallica – “The Star Spangled Banner”

First and foremost, let us not forget the sacrifices people have made for this country and to its flag…

#2.  Metallica – “Don’t Tread on Me”

I use to rock out to Metallica all the time during my time in the service.  They still get me pumped.  RIP Cliff Burton!!!

#3. Bruce Springsteen – “Born in the U.S.A”

What can I say… I’m a softy for the classics! Merica’…. 

#4.  Hatebreed – “Puritan”

I was a kid from Connecticut in the hardcore scene, I still remember listening to this 7 inch until the needle wore out.  I use to blare this in the barracks in Camp Pendleton and in the desert.  I finished off my military by seeing them play in San Bernardino.

#5. Black Sabbath – “War Pigs”

This song rocks.  It transcends generations! My father listened and pasted this onto me.  I introduced my daughters to Black Sabbath at a young age. The little one loves all things metal and punk.

#6. AMERICA F*#K YEAH! MUSIC VIDEO – Team America World Police THEME SONG
