Don't forget you could be laughing 65% more of the time

 

Meet John Grant.  I discovered him from the NPR music top 50 songs of  2013.  So I love this song GMF and I'm sharing it with you.  I must walk out the door but I will be back with a love letter to Kopecky Family Band shortly. 

 

 

 

KXT Summer Cut 2013

My super quick concert review - I'll add more later (yeah, that might be a lie)

The Avett Brothers - Absolutely one of the best live bands I've ever seen!!!   They are energetic, talented and amazing!!! I don't think anyone could see them perform and not love them.  I just don't think it's possible.

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals - I think the only song I knew by them going into the show was Stars but she was a good performer. 

Matt and Kim - fun and high energy but not my favorite music

Dawes - fabulous, I would love to see a full set.  They only got thirty minutes which wasn't enough.

Hayes Carll - I don't think he had enough time to find his groove.  I love his music and didn't get to hear some of my favorite songs.  I would like to catch him in a smaller venue for a full set.  Stomp and Holler was fun. 

Me and my guy at the end of the night.
