Hi

So, I'm starting my own blog. I'm really not sure why, I guess secretly I wish I could be one of those blogs that gets this great following and ends up having a post featured on the Urban Outfitters blog. But, I really doubt that will happen, so instead, I just have another outlet for expelling all the jumbled up stuff in my brain. Here's how I'm going to roll this baby out, week by week:

• Music Monday...
  
• Artuesdays...


• WDIYs (Wednesday Do It Yourself for the acronymically challenged)...


• Foodie Thursdays (no cleverness here, sorry)...


• Fashion Fridays...


• Saturdays I'll be making the Weekend Web post.

As you may have noticed, my blog has no prevailing theme. This may be my downfall, but I decided it must be done. So, let's get down to business, sugar. Get ready for...

Music Monday

!

For the introductory post, I'll tell you a little about music and me. I play bass quite nicely. I sing pretty well. I play drums with soul if not skill. That's about it for personal ability. My real passion is in listening to music. I am by no means an expert or a critic. I'm just passionate, which thankfully is a very forgiving term.

My favorite place to sift through emerging (or well established) artists is the Urban Outfitters Playlist. Not updated too frequently, but it makes up for it in quality. They also offer free downloads on occasion. That reminds me, UO is currently running a contest to win their top ten albums of the year. You have until January 19th to enter, if you want to check it out.

In other musically related news, my good friend Morgan Enos, who's something of a local musical enigma, is playing a show January 15th and he invited me to join him. We have the most ridiculously awesome name for our duo/band, but you'll have to come to the show to find out what it is. It'll be at the buchon house in San Luis Obispo.

I'll leave you on this melodious monday with five artists I'm absolutely infatuated with. These links are for their music videos on youtube. Enjoy, and I hope you have a lovely Monday. See you tomorrow.
