I took the day off work and barely saw the morning.... so no traditional shuffle but I did run an errand earlier and shuffled a few tunes.... Plus I had some other things to share:

Tuesday Morning Music Shuffle - Tilt-a-Whirl Mix
Tweet #E2TG
Well! The impromptu debut of Ear to the Ground Presents: at The Building last night was a huge success or at least a hell of a lot of fun with some awesome music. Thanks to Darrin Bradbury for doing all the leg work, and to The Western Shore, Sarah Potenza, Jon Latham, and Darrin and The Fran's Eastside Super High Band for bringing the awesome tunes. Hopefully, this will be a semi-regular thing in 2015.
Let's jump into the shuffle... shall we?

Monday Morning Music Shuffle - Middle Man Mix
Tweet #E2TG
I am more convinced than ever that I did not delete my playlist (as mentioned Friday) through some incredibly bone-headed clumsy ass maneuver. No, it appears that my phone is possessed. My cell phone contract ended in November, and my now two year old phone has developed a mind of it's own. It has begun initiating screen touch activities all on it's own... typing (and sending) gibberish text messages, taking pictures, opening applications, etc. I think it knows that it's days are numbered.
So, until I get a new phone, any activity which comes from me should be suspect. Including this post... am I writing this or is my phone writing this?

Tuesday Morning Music Shuffle - Pitch Black Mix

As with many people, my mind is consumed with thoughts of what has happened and is happening in Ferguson, Missouri and what it says about us as a nation - as human beings.... I am not one of those who thinks he has all the answers... in fact there are just a few things I think I know.... repeated and systemic injustice creates situations where violence flourishes. Violence and Hate are never the answer. Peace and Love always are the answer. Justice must proceed peace. We are one world and one people. We really need to work on losing this idea of them vs. us.
Coincidently, we begin today's random shuffle with a cover of Gil Scott-Heron song, but not the one I've seen others posting today...

Friday Morning Music Shuffle - Live My Life Mix

So another week of Ear to the Ground Shuffles comes to a close. I am a bit short on time so I thought I would try something... a 3 Words post. I will attempt to comment on each song using just three words. This may be more time consuming than writing a long post, but here goes nothing...
Have a great weekend!

Friday Morning Music Shuffle - Hollerin' Mix
Tweet #E2TG
First things first: The Grey A have a brand new video for their timely song "Dumb Fool". It's a fun film noir style video which includes our old friend Howard Rabach pounding on a table. Check it out here:
Second of all, I had a great time seeing Darrin Bradbury and The Fran's Eastside Super-High Band deliver a stellar set at The 5 Spot last night.
Careful readers will recall that back in September yours truly had two reviews featured on the No Depression website. One was for The Grey A's album My Country and the other was for Darrin Bradbury's album Motel Oatmeal.
Now there is another coincidental connection between the two - if you look at picture above, at the extreme right of the picture - kind of in the shadows on the picture is Trombone player Diego Vasquez who joined the Super-High band last night and also played with The Grey A when I saw them at The Stone Fox (and played on The Grey A album I believe).
Finally, I need to announce that there are big, big things in store for #E2TG in the coming new year. (Translation: I am basically punting the last month and a half of 2014 so expect nothing from me until after New Years by which time I hope you will have forgotten that I promised "big, big things")
Seriously, the Shuffles will continue unabated... well mostly unabated.... well just somewhat abated... well at least occasionally unabated...

Thursday Morning Music Shuffle - This is the Blues Mix
Tweet #E2TG
Nashville - come out tonight to The Five Spot in East Nashville at 9:00pm for an awesome show. The Harmed Brothers, Charlie and the Foxtrots, and #E2TG favorite Darrin Bradbury who will be backed by the star-studded (and stud-starred) Fran's Eastside Super-High Band!
Apologies to Tim Carroll (who by the way is part of the aforementioned Super-High Band) for appropriating the title of one of his songs for the subtitle of today's shuffle. The song isn't in the shuffle, but it came to my find, when I heard the high concentration of Blues numbers in the first part of this morning's shuffle.
Shuffle Up!
