In the middle of a bit of a work-crisis, so I’ll keep this short. Actually this whole week has kind of been one work crisis after another…and sadly I do not see the end. I did get out Wednesday night to check out rocksters, Leogun, and I am pleased to report I have a new band love from the UK.

Sad Robot continues their Silverlake Lounge residency Monday night and then my favorite band from Culture Collide, Denmark’s terminal, has a show Thursday night also at Silverlake Lounge. And if we’re talking about can’t miss shows, Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers are making their last stop in the LA area before they go on an indefinite hiatus (one of my least favorite word combos).

Is it Monday again already? My days are becoming a blur. This summer is proving to be a hot one and all I want to do after my morning ride is come home and pass out. Which is what I did. So, if this seems a tad incoherent, I apologize. I might still be in that groggy phase after you are awoken too early. Another reason my days are all a blur is San Diego has a super huge event coming up this week which I’m attending. Perhaps you’ve heard of a little thing called Comic Con? No? Well, look it up.

Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 7/18-7/24

I’ve been dancing around the apartment all morning…kind of on a Wallflowers kick, although my player just hit a Nirvana tune and I can dig that too. The good mood is most likely due to the fact that I have my car back and it feels like freedom. Also, I have a day off for the first time in what seems like ages (grocery shopping, bill paying, and household chores have never felt so good).
