Songs From The Past

Yesterday I finished my working day and on the way home friends asked me to join them for a drink and playing pool. Because I had no other plan and I wanted to see them again after a couple of weeks I agreed and went to our local pub. Knowing that I couldn't play on their level I joined our little competition. Finally me and my partner had a very good day and we beat the champions for the very first time. Along the way we watched the games on Bundesliga on Tuesday evening and had a wonderful evening together. In the background there were a lot of songs we listened to during our competition. This are some I remember. Of course all of you will know them but these are songs that are monuments in musical history and you can feature them at every time. That they were classic and warm friends of mine doesn't matter.

Pool Hall

Since a few month I meet with some friends for playing pool at our local pub. I was sitting at the bar drinking my pint when I came in contact with an retired old man and we started talking about this and that, politics and sports and finally we talked about playing pool. Soon we started playing and I got a lot of lessons learned. I started playing when I was a kid of 15 years and played every couple of years later. Knowing that I was just a regular player that is able to play the rules the old man showed me the abilities of the game. He told me a lot about playing slow and waiting for the chance. Since then we meet with a couple of friends to play a weekly competition. And I have to say: the more I play the better I get. It is just another way to get rid of all the things that bothered me during the working week. Here are a few songs that were inspired by playing pool.

Enjoy.
