Stone Brew and JJ Grey

Good evening and Happy Friday!

On tap tonight is Stone's Ruination IPA. It's known as "a liquid poem to the glory of the hop." It's definitely for hop lovers only. I think many people would find the taste excruciatingly bitter, but I love it!

Last night I was ready to see JJ Grey and Mofro at The Visulite Theatre, but upon arrival we found out JJ had food poisoning and the show was cancelled. They'll either reschedule or I'll get a refund.

The venue had another group playing. We stayed for a beer and then decided to call it an early night. Not worth staying up late on a "school night" for a band I never heard of. They actually weren't bad at all, but not sure if I got their name.

Here's JJ Grey and Mofro playing one of my favorites when he wasn't illin'...


I did get home in time to see the Phillies win last night! Hope they can get two more wins back home in Philly.

- Salud!

New Woodside Lounge

Opened up the new Woodside Lounge yesterday.

The new Woodside Lounge has its own TV, even though it's around the corner from the theater room. It just goes without saying, all lounges must have a TV for sporting events. I believe it's in the building code. Music is served up from the stereo system currently residing in the dining room, but I'm thinking of moving it to the Lounge. Today I went streakin'! Remember, use that sunblock out there. - Salud!

Summer Mix 2007

I probably should give this over the weekend to think about it, because there are three songs not included in this year's Summer Mix that I've been flip-flopping over. The mix just seems very tight and I can't fit the songs in without repeating the "essence," "groove" or beat of another song. I think the mixes for me work best when they flow and take you from one place to another musically without beating you over the head with the same style. Another thing I like to do with the Summer Mix is incorporate the old alongside the new. I hate to put two old songs back to back, or should I say two songs from the same era back to back. Now as you look at my mix you'll see some old songs next to other old songs. I guess it's not a hard and fast rule for me, but I try to at least jump a decade between two old songs. Like last year I kept the sound effects to a minimum, using a mix I created of beach sounds for the opening and a crickets sound effect for ...
