No shows for me this week but that’s totally okay. I was busy/exhausted this week but I had the joys from the shows the week before to keep me going. I also did some music management and purchased some new tracks yesterday to add to my music mix. In other news, I’ve been spending loads of time into my room due to the fact that there’s a hole in my living room ceiling due to the fact that there was a leak in a copper pipe. The whole thing needs to dry out before it can get patched up so there’s no family or living room as the family room is stuffed with the furniture from the living room. Wheeeeeeee!!!

Well, I made it out to the two shows I wanted to go to this week! I almost didn’t make it to either one because I was kind of tired from everything else earlier in the day and it required some effort to get back out of pjs and into real clothes. I’m really glad I did make it out though. Rocktober is slowing down our calendar this week as it comes to an end. Sad face.

Well, I made it out for a show this Tuesday night but that was about it for me. It’s been an exhausting week and I doubt it’s going to let up anytime soon. There’s just not enough time in the day anymore. But this week I’m hoping to make it out to a few shows. Those shows being Coin/Colony House and Parade of Lights. So, those are my spotlight shows where you can probably find me this week. But there’s lots of other great stuff this week!

You know, this whole bi-polar weather thing is getting really out of hand. Thankfully today was cooler than yesterday and by that I mean it was mid 90’s instead of triple digits. Last, I checked, this was San Diego, not Arizona. I did manage to make it out of the house on Friday for the Redwoods Revue, which was a truly enjoyable evening especially because I ran into some friends I hadn’t seen for awhile. Always fun. This week looks pretty good too. Rocktober is holding strong.

I was lucky enough to have two wonderful show experiences this weekend. First was Creature and The Woods at Winston’s in Ocean Beach. I haven’t been there in years but I had a lovely time and even found a new band I like called Bedroom Talk out of Riverside. It was a late night, but a good night. The second was with Parade of Lights at The Loft at UCSD. We almost didn’t make it into the show but we got lucky and had a wonderful time! There was a lot of dancing and even an encore! Lovely evenings!

This week is shaping up to be another good one. We are just getting Rocktober started after all…

This weather has been absolutely miserable. It’s September, almost October and you just need to cool down. Literally. Weather wasn’t the only thing hot this weekend though. I caught the very first show of Billy Sunday, a side project of Jeremiah Zimmerman of The Silent Comedy which also featured a few other Silent Comedy peeps and a Fierce Creature. The next time they play, you have to go!! It was just a dancing good time! I mean, I wasn’t dancing because heat and sweat but a lot of people were and I was bouncing in my seat so that counts, right?
