To say the next few weeks are going to be ridiculous is an understatement. Here’s what’s going down, music-wise:
Tonight: Alabama Shakes/First Aid Kit/Dry The River/Filligar
Next Tuesday: Blind Pilot/Tyler Lyle House Show in Colorado
Next Thursday thru Sunday: Doe Bay Fest
Two Saturdays from now: Mumford and Sons Gentlemen of the Road Stopover
Mixed in there is a road trip out to Colorado, flights to and from Seattle and then a mad dash from Colorado back home so that I can get back to work on a specific day. Anyways, all of that is to say that I’ll be stepping away for a few weeks from this here blog to do all that traveling, friend seeing, picture taking and music watching. If I had to venture a guess I’d say that I’ll be back to regularly posting here on the 20th. That’s not to say I will be without internet, just that I won’t be able to write any words here. I’ll be all over Twitter, Instagram (username: sharpadam) and, mobile app cooperation pending, Facebook (edit: looks like the mobile app doesn’t allow posting on pages, which sucks, so Twitter & Instagram are where you can find me/updates). So check in those places for pictures, links and whatnot if you’d like.
I leave you with a mix of stuff I’ve been listening to lately (and will likely be blaring for parts of the 2000+ miles I’ll be in my car for). Some of it’s new, some of it’s old but all of it, I think, is top notch. See you in a few weeks. Enjoy.
