Thursday Night Unwind

We have made it to another Thursday! And not to mention we are getting closer and closer to Christmas! I actually took tomorrow off so I have more of a weekend to finish up some Christmas presents. So I'm spending my evening watching some Doctor Who, and drinking a dirty martini. By the way, making a dirty martini is super simple. here, check out this video if you feel like indulging:

Yum! But onto the music now that you've got your drinks (or are dreaming of one). Tonight I'm going to share a new indulgence with you. A band I recently stumble across called iron & Wine. They are pretty chill, so they go great with a martini. First up is their song called  Boy with a Coin:

Thursday Night Unwind

Oh yes! We've made it to Thursday again! And as usual I have an action packed weekend planned. First on the list is after work. I'm going to a bar with some coworkers called The Lazy Oaf Cafe. I've never been there before, so it should be a good time. After that I'm going to the Crossroads Coffee House to see a friend's dad's band play. Then of course there will be some crafting and good food as well throughout the weekend. good times indeed. First step is to get through tomorrow at work... actually, that's the 2nd thing. First thing is to get to sleep tonight. So I think it's time to unwind! Up for tonight is a band that isn't as good recorded as they are live. Cause lets face it, you don't like The Flaming Lips because they have an amazing singer... you like them because they put on an AMAZING live show!

The first time I heard of the Flaming Lips, I was at a live concert thrown by Southern Comfort. I was there for the band that came on before them, so I was already up front & center. Then the band I went to see got off the stage and the Flaming Lips started. I was gonna walk away... but I'm soooooooooooo glad I didn't!

First up we have their song called the Yeah Yeah Yeah song... live (of course) :) Enjoy!!!!

Thursday Night Unwind

So work an odd shift on Thursdays. I work from 12:30pm until 9:00pm then i have to turn around and be into work and ready to go at 8:00am. At least tomorrow is half day so I only have to be there till noon (yay!) and then afterward is a trip to the beloved Ale Asylum here in Madison, WI for lunch... and a beer. Really good beer at that. My personal favorite is the one called Happy Ending (a Belgian abbey).

But enough about tomorrow, we need to focus on the here and now. Like that fact that I need to go to bed and I'm too wired to do so. So I like to unwind with some good tunes from time to time and a glass of wine (I'm really not a lush, but this post really isn't helping to prove that fact).

First up... a video! This is a group called The Head and the Heart. if you haven't heard of them I'd suggest pushing the play button on the video... cause they rock.
