Geocache Description:


THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE ABOVE COORDINATES!


As our friend Criffree approaches that 2000 cache milestone, we thought it appropriate to put out a few caches in his honor.


As most of his friends know, Criffree is a huge fan of music of all different varieties. This love was born way back and no doubt fueled by the music smorgasboard of the late 70's and early 80's. Criffree was a product of those times having graduated from high school in 1980. I can remember back in those days of sitting in my room and listening to the radio. There were songs like "Sexy Eyes" by Dr. Hook that gave us that funky sound and videos of a young Michael Jackson in a sequined suit against a background laser as he sang "Rock With You". There were also pop ballads like "We Don't Talk Anymore" by the British mainstay Cliff Richard. About that time a new wave of music was coming into popularity like "Call Me" by Blondie. Then there was one of the greatest bands of all time putting out the megahit protest song that turned out to be one of the biggest hits of all time, "Another Brick in the Wall, Part II" by Pink Floyd. And who will forget the pop anthem "Pop Muzik" by M? And no matter what era you're in, there will always be a mix in of the R&B sound, like "Upside Down" by Diana Ross which brought a little of that soul into disco. Do you remember that sultry, raspy songstress Kim Carnes and her rendition of "More Love"? It sounded almost like a circus theme at the beginning. And one can never forget the American staple of Rock n Roll, even if it did contain a little bit of new wave and funk rolled in like Billy Joel's "It's Still Rock and Roll To Me". And alas, we hadn't yet forgotten the 60's & 70's with the folksy sound of Dan Fogelberg as he crooned "Longer". Ahhh, they just don't make music like that anymore. Wait! Didn't your parents used to say that?

Anyways, enough reminiscing, Congratulations Criffree on such a great milestone! "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars."
