Jaffna Is The Best Thing Ever and YOU HAVE TO GO SEE THEM AT THE FALLSER ON SATURDAY

Ok, maybe a little hyperbolic but believe me, the hype is ever so called for.

These are four good friends, each an amazing musician in their own right and together give life to the idea that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. And these are damn good parts so what does that say about the whole?

These four have played together in this combination and in many other variations for 30 years give or take and their music tells the story of a musical journey, taken together, arriving at a magical place. Jaffna will transport you, elevate, dare i say purify you?

Look, you know me and you know i’m really tough on music and this is amazing. Go see it.

Eagles Game Day Rally!

Reasons to go:

1. Acme’s Frosty Mug Beer Garden is a hidden gem. Yeah, it seems weird to sit in a corner of a grocery store and sip suds but it’s got a nice feeling. The ebb and flow of community, the gentle jingle of self check out. And true to the name, there is a cooler frosty mugs. If you can’t find it, ask Manager Steve.
2. We are the champions! and right in the thick of the pre-season odds to repeat.
3. You can buy me a beer.
4. Pick up some snacks for the game.
5. That’ll do, pig.

Holiday week. If you’re usually Thursday, you’re Friday.

Not the most provocative post but whatever. it’s not all Pynchon . Sometimes you just have to forget it, Jake, it’s just trash day.

The York Street Hustle is a real good time. Bring a picnic, a camp chair, and your ears.
