Tempus Fugate’s Place

 

John Michael Montgomery

The Snoqualmie Casino is a great venue for seeing artists up close.
 
Tonights show was really intimate and casual. He played lots of old favorites which for someone with so many hits wasn't particularly hard.
 
My personal favorite Life's A Dance was early in the set and the whole crowd sang along.
 
To make the evening better, I ran into the Wahl's and got to say hello. I've missed them terribly so seeing them having fun was just a real treat.
 
I'm definitely looking forward to coming back to enjoy this place in the future.

Frustrated with having to wait 2 more hours to setup Google Voice because I'm getting on a plane.

What A Weekend

Summer is great for packing your days to overflowing. This weekend was no exception.
 
The sunshine baked into my skin every day and all the people watching and socializing nourished my soul.
 
Saturday was a zoo day with a chance to sample some brews at the Seattle International Beer Festival and some inspiring fireworks.
 
I got the chance to spend some quality time with good friends and make some new ones. They taught me about gin and tequila which just proves I can learn something every day. Even when relaxing on the grass.
 
To close out a Sunday that was supposed to be lazy, I got to catch a set by Boys Like Girls at El Corazon. It's such a great small venue for such a fun band with great stage presence. I've seen them on bigger stages and in comparison they just exploded being so close to the fans.
 
If I get the chance perhaps I'll post some of this weekends writings. For now, I'm heading to visit from friends in Burbank. If I'm lucky I'll get a chance to see @puarick, @shooman, and @dsummer.

The Cathedral of St. Paul

Taking a chance to see the sights in the Twin Cities with a good friend. After tooling around the Mississippi for a while we chance the views of the many churches in this town.
 
And have a chance to also watch the university track team running by. So there are lots of beautiful structures to be humbled by.

Matisyahu

Last year my friend @jraq introduced me to this artist and took me to see his show at the Paramount. Tonight I got a chance to return the favor at The Moore.
 
I took @thatonegirl for some totally bomb empanadas at the Buenos Aires Grill before the show. When we got to the show K'Naan was in full swing.
 
So I got to see a cool new artist and then jam to a recent favorite.
 
Good times.

Wallflowers

Fathers Day is a rough one for me.
 
So I went to see a show at the ShowBox for a distraction.
 
And I forgot that every Wallflowers song sounds pretty much the same. Now that's been made really clear.
 
It was a good night anyway.

Hey Monday, This Providence, Friday Night Boys

One of the best parts of seeing shows at the smaller venues is being able to hang with the bands in the bar.
 
Tonight got good and rowdy with @funjessica and a host of fans dancing along with some solid pop punk music.
 
The funniest part of the evening is when it was pointed out how much the bassist looked like @dsummer because of the fluffy hair.
 
The sets were solid and the dancing was awesome. Check them out if they come to your neck of the woods.

Alkaline Trio and Offspring

It's always cool to see the bands you've been listening to all your life do a righteous set.
 
After a solid heart to heart with @llpeyer, The Offspring is rocking my socks off!
 
They may be old, but they can still bring it!
