As you all can tell, the Plot Your Escape event did, in fact, turn out to be real. I may have been the only one on the face of the Earth who was worried about a possible scam, but to me…no info on the internet can be a deal breaker. The internet knows all and … Continue reading

Songs of the day – Plot Your Escape artists – Sara Bareilles and Maroon 5
As excited as I am for this Plot Your Escape concert, I have a few fears…mainly because there is practically zero information about it online. I could Google for hours and come back with nothing more than a time, location and pile of tweets from people asking how to get tickets. However, I did meander … Continue reading
Plot Your Escape – Surprise Chicago Concert: March 1, 2012
I’m going to this? Somebody pinch me, please. If you don’t mind, I’m going to bother you with a small portion of my life story. This is about my inability to win contests. Big, small, short, tall – I don’t win them. I’m pretty sure that if I was the only person to enter a … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Real Thing” – Jamie Lawson
Today, I’ve decided to feature a song I don’t know how I found, by an artist whose name I apparently don’t know how to spell. It’s official. I’m losing my mind. It’s the real thing and I just have to accept it. Why do I say this, you ask? (And if you don’t…ouch.) Naturally, any … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Up” – James Morrison ft. Jessie J
Sometimes, when I am first introduced to an artist, I know immediately that a long term love affair is about to ensue. No matter how much I may want to fight it, I know darn well that within the next 24 hours, I will be buying his or her music, probably in CD form. Love … Continue reading
Songs of the day: “A Sunday Kind of Love” and “At Last” – Etta James
Hearing that Etta James lost her battle with leukemia today left me with absolutely no choice but to feature one of her best as today’s song of the day. Quite frankly, it’s not like I would have been capable of finding something with such a lasting quality, anyway. For some reason, I remember the exact … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Montreal” – The Weeknd
Well, if today isn’t a legitimate example of stumbling upon a song, I don’t know what is. I’ll be honest. I was planning on being lazy about finding today’s song of the day. I signed in to Spotify and hoped that the power of randomly clicking things under “What’s New” would lead me to a … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Us” – Regina Spektor
Today’s song is brought to you by a “twin” friend of mine. People have confused us for twins on a few occasions so perhaps that’s why she took the time to suggest it to me. She liked it and thought it was lovely and probably thought I would, too. What do you know? I, too, … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Summer is Over” – Jon McLaughlin ft. Sara Bareilles
Well, it’s official. The first snow of the season has fallen and my wanderlust begins. Lust for where? Oh, you know. Anywhere that stays above freezing during the winter months. Anywhere I can take a stroll outside without a serious fear of my face freezing off. Or fingers. Or toes. Anywhere I can send a … Continue reading
Featured Artist: Monte Pittman
Let’s take a stroll down the musical resume of Monte Pittman. -Age 24: Move to L.A.to pursue a career in music. Worked at a Guitar Center and realized he should be teaching the instrument rather than selling it. -Started teaching, and had Guy Ritchie (yes, the British director) as a student, since his famed beloved, … Continue reading
