The Long and Winding Weekend.

9/10/2015
Just a quick recap of last weekend. 
Nikki Lane
Social Distortion
Thursday 9/3 was Social Distortion and it was an AMAZING show but Gialdron was having a very hard Autism day and inside The Depot it can become stifling but a great show!!!  I enjoyed both opening acts Drag the River and Nikki Lane and I even bought Nikki's CD.  A Social D show was the same way I found out about Lindi Ortega and I have loved her music ever since so I have high hopes for Nikki Lane.  Mr. Ness and company were awesome and I will never miss a show whenever they come close to where I am living.

Drag the River
Selfie 09/04/2015
Friday 9/4; I had the day off and dealt with financial issues for the month so that Kalenar could head off for his 2 week long trip to Delaware.  When the day was done, I took a signature selfie and settled in for a long night of inebriation and Celtic Punk.
Saturday 9/5; I had to parent consequences for The Wee Dancer and waited all day for her to get her room cleaned and her laundry done and AARRGGGHHH!!!!  Then Les Morgan came over with her thrall and we went to The Republican for a pint and a shot.
The Republican
The Layover
Sunday 9/6; I laid down the law and The Wee Dancer suffered the consequence of me getting angry.  So all I did was watch Defiance, list CDs on E-bay and watch her CLEAN HER ROOM. Then Bomba came over and we drank beer and watched Anthony Bourdain's Layover series and the night went well.
Monday 9/7; we finished the cleaning and the laundry but I was visited by The Raven Queen (my mother) and forced to go through boxes of crap that she hoarded from my college years.  I am very cross about this because it was not I who hoarded it and when I told her to throw it away she ended up bringing it to me.  In addition she had an intense burning need to get the electrical short in the Jeep fixed so I dealt with her mania over that as well.  The Wee Dancer and I saw Tomorrowland which I enjoyed.  Lastly I dealt with a grand maul tantrum from Gialdron because he can't take control of his life.  More on that issue later when I can process my thoughts but just know this Autism is a blessing and a curse and dealing with it my whole life with him has caused me to be very tired and at times I barely cling on to hope.  On this note I will not leave you, instead I highly recommend you listen and watch this Foxy Shazam video for Oh Lord and feel good!!!

Just Checking In

August 25, 2015


This is just a check in post, no true agenda.  Life has been hectic getting The Wee Dancer into middle school and the world does not stop when we are having a struggle living.  Over the last while I have been listening to a awesome new music and favorite old music as well.  Here is a list of bands I have enjoyed listening to over the last ten weeks;



The Tossers

Rancid









The Bay Street Bastards

Lindi Ortega


Matilda's Scoundrels

The Interrupters
Authority Zero
Show me Island


The Rumjacks




The Dreadnoughts





Make sure you click on the links and check out each artist's music and news.

Other than that life has just been hectic and good.  I am looking forward to seeing Social Distortion on September 3rd with Gialdron and hanging out with the pantheon.
