I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday weekend. I spent most of mine working. I had one musical interlude Friday night when I ventured to the El Rey to see Dawes. They provided a fun and much needed break. Seeing that I’m going into this week a bit on the exhausted and overworked side, it will be a difficult one, BUT it is the last week I have to teach so after this week, my load should lighten up a bit. Fortunately or unfortunately (depending on how much available time you have), there are quite a few exciting shows this week. I’m especially looking forward to the Scarlet Grey music video premiere event on Thursday (although I hear the video will be up Tuesday…stay tuned).

SO many great options this week. Here are mine:
