I am currently at war with a fan. The fan has decided that it wants to squeak and I have decided to take issue with that. So far, the battle score is fan: 1, me: 1. It took a couple of tries, but my latest attempt using WD-40 seems to have at least reduced the noise from a loud and constant scream to an occasional chirp.  I’m calling that one a win, but I’m not sure that the war is over quite yet.

We’ll have to press pause the battling next week as I will be in San Diego to cover Comic Con as part of team High Voltage.  While I am away, be sure to get out to some shows for me. I had the privilege of seeing Wrabel last week and he is one of those artists whose live show will blow any recording out of the water. Don’t miss him at The Hotel Cafe Wednesday night.

I’m feeling sluggish in the face of this heat wave.  As such, I wasn’t planning on leaving that spot on my floor where the cross breeze from my fan system hits just right, but somehow Saturday night I found myself at The Troubadour for King Washington’s album release event. I walked into the venue to a greeting of “welcome home” and was immediately grateful for more than just the building’s air conditioning. Although, the AC will be a great excuse to get out for some music next week. I think I’m most looking forward to seeing UK’s Bones rock the roof off at Bardot for It’s a School Night.

This weekend, I passed a very important milestone in the getting over a cold progression when I went to the movies (an actual theater, where the threat of a film-interrupting coughing fit was very real).  But with water in hand, and a few cough drops in the back pocket, I successfully made it through a screening of Wonder Woman. I enjoyed it SO much that the next day I went back to the theater to see Baby Driver.  Both movies had their merits, but the way music helped create the very fabric of the film gave Baby Driver the edge in my book.

With the 4^th of July holiday, the beginning of next week looks pretty light, music-wise, but the prospect of a free Barns Courtney show on Weds will help get me through the fireworks.

It’s been since I went to that screening of Only Lovers Left Alive in 2014 that I’ve mentioned how much I enjoy Jim Jarmusch’s work.  Today, I watched his 2016 film, Paterson, and feel like it’s about time to say it again. I love Jim Jarmusch! Paterson, starring Adam Driver, follows the daily routine of a New Jersey bus driver/poet over a largely uneventful week in his life.  It was one of those light on action, heavy on implications type of films (my favorite) and I will be contemplating it all week!

Also this week, I hope I will be able to get out and enjoy some music (this incessant cough/lack of sleep business has been quite limiting).  There are some very exciting show options including Sir Sly who is back at The El Rey with a new look and new music!
