Seafair Weekend~ Bumbershoot not far behind!

I can’t believe SeaFair is here in Seattle, next up will be Bumbershoot over Labor Day weekend…man! this year has zoomed by so far.  Lots of badass acts coming to town, including Bob Dylan as headliner.  Check out the 40th Annual Bumbershoot lineup at: http://bumbershoot.org/

My apologies for no posts since Memorial Day but life is happening right now folks.  Yessir, right now.

Happy First Birthday to Jack James Bronson, my first & only (so far) grandson.  He is awesome and I’m glad he’s here on the planet.  My oh my.  Gotta love a recently walking busy toddler baby guy.  Too cute.

But I digress.  There have been many CD releases lately, too many to keep up with.  Dave Anderson - homegrown elegant jazz might I add - just played Tula’s.   It is essential for folks to check out our local music scene.  Yes, there’s lots of music “out there” but there’s plenty of great stuff here.  Almost too much music here at home in the greater Seattle area, but that doesn’t mean you should give up and throw up your hands because you have no idea who might move you.

Happiness is found where you least expect it sometimes.  Listen to a local musician and appreciate their hard work to please the audience.  They want to connect - in fact - strive to connect.  Without an audience they are self-serving and most of them are certainly not that.  So, download some music to your iPod or buy a used record at one of our beloved local record stores but, please, at least listen.

Check out new releases from Light in the Attic records or any one of our many local labels.  Some are better than others - some might strike your fancy, some might not, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Have a good one folks~  Today I’m listening to Ian Moore formerly of Austin, Texas, now of Vashon Island.  Awesome stuff.  Give it a go. I insist.
