Rocktober rolled on and I caught The Head and the Heart last thursday with my friend Erin Coffey at The Music Box. It’s a small venue with really awesome decor. I kind of want this in my house…
and a rooftop area which I really loved…
I wasn’t that familiar with the band beforehand so I started taking video as soon as I heard a song I liked. It turned out to be one of the opening bands – Lemolo, but that’s a good sign of things to come… here they are
The rest are Head and The Heart. I fell in love with the lead singer in his awesome striped jacket. Swoon.
And everyone jamming together, love when they do that…
All in all, a really great show with awesome energy and fabulous music. I have been listening to their album nonstop ever since.
Saw Beirut last night at the Greek Theater. Beirut is one of those bands that I have been listening to for years and I still have moments where, part way through a song I will think, wow, I really really love this song. LOVE.
I think Beirut is the closest thing I have to a favorite band. I am not good at picking favorite anythings. I don’t think I catch all the lyrics and I’m pretty sure I just sing gibberish a lot of the time but the music just resonates for me. If my soul had a theme song I think it would involve trumpets and ukuleles…
So- play the videos below. You don’t need to watch them. Just let them play and do other things and enjoy the tunes. I was so hypnotized that I would forget I was filming so it’s all a bit…drifty. Enjoy.
‘Goshen’ from the new album The Rip Tide
‘The Penalty’ from The Flying Club Cup (2nd album)
This was just to show what the Greek is like (amazing)
Lastly, just another color. We had great seats…first time I have ever paid more for a better section and totally worth it.
The Elle magazine daily horoscope is the creepiest thing I have seen in a while. It seems to be horrifyingly accurate so far. My daily dose of how did they know that?!

lastly, for my father’s amusement…
I often find myself wondering what to do with all the videos and photos I have on my phone other than show them to uninterested folks who want to be doing anything else…So I made this. Many of my videos from California…a slice of life I believe they call it.
Still working on the quality…but the animation is getting better!
p.s. this is where I work, pretty snazzy.

Still learning what works and what doesn’t…too many reflections make it look like video
