It’s been a few days since I’ve been out for music and I feel very tempted to go to a show this evening, knowing it’s not really the best idea. The nail in the coffin of this notion is that I am staying at a friend’s place and wouldn’t be able to find easy parking when I got back late.  I feel like I’d have a very different life if I had to rely on street parking in Los Angeles. Today, I am extra grateful for my reserved parking space!   

Since I’ve been staying in more this week, I’ve had time to dig into new music releases from TRISHES, Wolf Alice, Joe P, The War on Drugs, and Biffy Clyro! Lots of good stuff, all deserving of a deeper dive.

Still forming my plans for next week, but they will certainly include Colony House (“O YA!!”)  and any number of the following:
