Week of Music

BEST WEEK EVER!  Thanks to a fab new friend, I have already been to two concerts this week, and heading to another tomorrow!  Thought I would share a playlist of the 6 bands I will have seen by the end of the week!  The best part is, they are all Canadian.  So proud of the Canadian indie music coming out these days...it's kind of amazing.

...btw...the lead singer in the burning hell is the best ukulele player I have ever heard...seriously he rocks it better than most people rock a guitar.  It BLEW my mind.

I think last night you were driving circles around me



I LOVE this song...I'm pretty sure it's better than the original by Kristin Hersh.  His voice is so captivating...I couldn't find a good video of this as it's just a cover...and all the videos are related to Grey's Anatomy so I thought you could look at his cute face for four minutes. This boy I went on a couple dates with introducted me to Greg's music...I may never see that boy again, but I am SO thankful he shared this with me!  Sometimes dating has some perks...went on another date tonight...that guy contributed this to my life....needless to say...I don't think there will be a date #2....

Tune Thursday - Oooo La La

I've decided to start posting more regularly...it's not like I don't sit on my computer everyday ANYWAYS!
So to start of I would like to share Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. This song is totally stuck in my head, and I LOVE it.  Her voice is so amazing.  And the drummer has the BEST mustache I have EVER seen ;)  Hope you enjoy!






This is a funnier video....them in their hotel room.  LOVE how the drummer has a hairdryer in his belt.  They still sound amazing.

Prompt #3

So I kind of strayed away from prompt #3....and followed this post instead...and decided to try out a new movie store as I swear I've rented all the new releases and decided to rent something different.  The Videodrome is pretty amazing.  It's a little small, but that doesn't stop them from carrying all kinds of different genres.  The girl that helped me was amazing, and helped me pick 4 movies...3 of which I've already watched, and 1 might have become a new favorite!


I rented


Still haven't watched Rockers yet...The Apartment was SO adorable!  I freaking LOVED it.  Once Were Warriors was super intense, but a really good movie.  And Night and the City wasn't my favorite....I fell asleep during it twice, and it didn't really seem to have a huge point. 
I will definitely be back...but because it's so far away (just off Whyte behind the Iron Horse) I'm scared of the late fees I will incur...they however also offer delivery and then you can keep the movies for a month...this could make my relationship with my tv even worse....is that even possible?!

MY FIRST....


GRANNY SQUARE!!!!!
My lovely Lindsay taught me to crochet yesterday.  And I think for my first time ever, I did a pretty fantastic job!  I am planning on making this lovely floor mat from our Summer Camp, but thought I should get a little familiar with crochet before I started...turns out it's SUPER easy, and I think I might love it more than knitting...



Hope you're all having as lovely a weekend as I am!
