Japandriods/Craig Finn - 930 Club - Washington, DC
If you have not seen the Japandroids in person...take the time to seek out one of their live shows. As a friend aptly put it - they are The Ramones meets Bruce Springsteen. With The Hold Steady's Craig Finn opening this tour is AMAZING!
Love Without... Women's March on Washington - Washington, DC
There is alot that can be said about the past 5 days...
Frankly I am growing a bit tired of debates about crowd size and other things from this weekend. Truthfully, I could care less if you voted for him or not...history will be the ruler to which he is judged not our opinions for/against him on Facebook.
With that being said, I wanted to share one photo from that "other" event that was in the news this weekend as my entire family had the privilege of being a part of it...I think it captures the message of what Saturday was about.
While there were issues some advocated for/against that I may/may not agree with - this gentleman sitting in between two fairly harsh signs never said a word, never debated...just reminded us all that maybe we can be just a little bit nicer to one another.
United House of Prayer Parade - Washington, DC
As we get into the throes of summer this photo popped up on my screen today to remind me of how Summer 2016 kicked off...stay cool.
Lucy Dacus - DC 9 - Washington,DC
I first heard Lucy Dacus sitting at NPR waiting for a Tiny Desk Concert. Our host, Bob Boilen had seen Lucy the previous evening and giddily played "I Don't Want to be Funny Anymore" post taping of the guest - I just remember sitting there shocked with this song. Well I had the chance to see her last night at DC9 and it was AMAZING. For some reason I think this will be the last time we ever get the chance to see her in such an intimate venue.
