Crown N Chaos Vol. 12

Rockin’ into the New Year 🎆

📝 Straight from the Chaotic Mess That Is My Desk, Yours Truly, Bobby D:

Oh yeah, baby. I’ve got a desk. But today, it’s not just any desk—it’s a chaotic masterpiece of spilled coffee stains, forgotten snack wrappers, and notes I’ll never actually read. The madness is alive and well, fueled by caffeine, rock, and an unreasonable number of guitar picks.

The Rock King is officially back in action after a weekend of chaos, and let me tell you, we’re kicking it into high gear as we charge toward 2025. Buckle up, because the insanity is about to hit 11. Let’s dive in! 🎙️🤘

 1980s: “Sweet Child O’ Mine” by Guns N’ Roses (1987) – A rock anthem that never gets old.

 1990s: “Everlong” by Foo Fighters (1997) – Perfect for a reflective New Year’s vibe.

 2000s: “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” by Green Day (2004) – Because who hasn’t felt this way?

 2010s: “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye (2011) – A breakup anthem with rock-pop flair.
