The Show Must Go On

No matter how you may be feeling, the world around you doesn't stop. For me, that might be a good thing.

Music is my medicine, so I knew I was going to see Dawes in Davis on the 1st.
I got off work a touch early, (Thanks Brad!) grabbed my sister, and we were off. Now, I have only driven to Davis one other time but I felt pretty good about getting there. As luck would have it, no traffic, and we made excellent time! I parked right up the street for free. As we walked, we passed the band so I knew we were in the right place. It was like a little community center in downtown Davis. Not many people were there and a local girl started the show. Jonny Corndawg had Dawes to back him up and that set was a ton of fun! Then Dawes came on and, once again, knocked it out of the park. Ashley and I had so much fun!!! It's rare that we hang out and have such a fun time being silly anymore. I'm so overly excited for Dawes' new album... After the show, I was lucky and got to talk to Griffin and then to Taylor. (Never did figure out where Alex has gone) They are all such nice regular guys...all good.
*This one is for Taylor who didn't know who Charlie Musslewhite is.


The following Saturday I was in Yesenia's Wedding!
It started off super early. I had to be at the Mary Agatha Furth Center, with my hair done, by 9am. We set up the hall for over an hour and then got all dressed up. The limo came to take us girls to the church in Calistoga. Now, I'm not Catholic and this wedding was a Spanish Catholic wedding. I was a little out of place to say the least.  I just went with it and for the most part and did alright. The ceremony was beautiful. The mariachi band was by far the coolest thing. ;) Pictures followed and then back to the reception hall. I was home by 1am and absolutely exhausted, but it was a great day that I was super honored to be a part of!

Life is beginning to settle down into new routines. The future holds new goals and uncertainties. Overall, all is good and things keep on keepin' on.


P.S.
There are a bunch of shows I'm going to in the coming months. You are more than invited to join me!
