We reached the mid-point of the week.  Last night, I made it out to Dee's for the latest edition of Darrin Bradbury's on-going songwriter's night - this week featured Alec Lang (who is pretty new to town and who I enjoyed), Angela Autumn (who was fantastic), and the always great Chelsea Lovitt. Plus Darrin and Irakli Gabriel who played a fun, loose set.  

Then, I headed over to The 5 Spot to catch the latest Swill TV - Live show - featuring the 9th episode of the music video series.  The live show featured performances by Caleb Hayden Christopher - a bartender at The 5 Spot making his stage debut at the venue - his songs were great and his stage presence was fantastic, Sophie and the Broken Things - who I caught one year ago on a livestream and who I have played on the radio.  Sophie's band included the multi-talented Dave Coleman and drummer Lemmy Hayes (Buck 'N' Stuff), and long-time E2TG favorite Tom Schreck with rare appearance of his band Tom Schreck Escapes!  

Tomorrow - catch the next edition of Greetings from Nashville - with a collection of songs that seem to fit the Halloween season.

For sure crazy time... I am late posting today because... well, because these are crazy times.

Right at this moment, I am feeling overwhelmed by everything.  There are lots of things to be done, no places to go, and plenty of time for... what? Worry, action, distraction, fear, anger, joy, peace, love, hate, blame, despair, envy, activism, art, music... ah, music... well for the purpose, of E2TG today, I am going to stick to music.

Seriously, there are some good people doing good things these days, and plenty of opportunities to help in whatever way you can and how you feel led. I hope to post some links and things soon.

Today was my last day in my office for some period of time (at least two weeks), so the shuffle for the time being will not be my commute - it doesn't even take one song to make it from my bed to my chair.

But, today I did commute, and it was pouring down rain this morning, but there was very little traffic.  Let's just get to the shuffle. I have a whole list of things to do... (see above).

Be safe and stay in touch with people.  We have unprecedented ways to keep in touch.  We can isolate physically while staying connected.  Peace!

Oh, yeah, Happy St. Patrick's Day.  eh... cheers.
