BiAs an Army brat, Larry May travelled more than most will by the time he was ten. His parents were stationed in New Jersey, Hawaii, Georgia and Alabama.

His family spent time in France, England, Spain and Scotland before moving back when he was eleven. He was an avid reader and listened to music incessantly in his room. His teens were typical of a small town Southern upbringing. He grew to love Alabama and its denizens. He also questioned some things that were commonplace. He met the girl that would be his wife when they were both seventeen. She took a young man mad at the world and stood him up, dusted him off and was patient while he figured it out. They opened CD Cellar Christmas 1997. The store has been through many iterations but continues to be based in a love for music and serving its musical community. Larry was responsible for starting a music festival for downtown Anniston. It ran for five years and brought national level talent to his hometown and also thousands through its gates. This spawned an art gallery and also reviving the Christmas parade under his watch. The couple's son, Andrew, was born in 2004. He's an accomplished musician that plays with his band, writes and records their music and also is a full time student at JSU. Larry has written a music column for the Anniston Star newspaper for well over a decade. He interviews national touring artists as they traverse the Southeast. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Karl in Hackensack – "I’m dating a female that drinks socially and loves to hang out. If we go to dinner, she wants to go to a lounge afterward, then to an after-hours spot and then invite people back to her house. This is almost every weekend. Is this a red flag?" Paula in Anniston – "My boyfriend invited my dad to my birthday party after I told him my parents don’t mix well. My dad brought his wife.
