Took on the last $2 Tuesday last night with E2TG fave Jason Erie, Rhyan Sinclair, host Derek Hoke, and Ward Hayden and the Outliers (whose Don't Judge a Book album we covered here this year).  In the late night hour, an uplifting full-band set from Jon Latham - featuring some Christmas tunes and special guests.  It was exactly the sort of night I needed.


Let us jump back into our recap of 2019.  Some cool music today.  Dig it!

  *Note: The video playlist at the bottom of the post attempts to closely approximate the shuffle I listened to on my way to work this morning. When a video for a song was not available, I substituted another song by the same artist. When I could not find any videos by an artist, I included a related video or did not include a video for that track. This blog may reference unreleased tracks, however, no unreleased music is ever included.

This is my last day to remind you to make a donation to the WXNA Pledge Drive, but the drive runs through Sunday.

Time is marching on, and I am getting ready for a soft launch of E2TG version 3.0 soon.  I am going to make some decisions over the weekend about the timing of the changes.  December is historically the month we review the year that is winding down - which we do in the context of our annual awards - The Earies (tagline: They sound odd, but they really aren't)


Let's jump into this shuffle!

Let's get WILD with a Wild Wednesday shuffle - a shuffle of all the music I have saved to my phone's memory card.  It amounts to over 3,000 songs - I think.

Americana Fest week Day 2:   Caught the Broken Jukebox Media Showcase at The 5 Spot - saw Chuck Hawthorne, (E2TG Artist of the Year) Ben de la Cour, Eric Brace, Rod Picott, The Truehearts, and Meghan Hayes (all who have been featured on E2TG) plus Libby Koch and Terry Klein (who soon will be featured).  Fun evening.  Be sure to catch The Truehearts and Meghan Hayes on Week 3 and 4 of the E2TG Residency (respectively).

After that I headed to Dee's to catch some great music from Daniel Walker, Jaime Harris, Chris Moyse, Nick Nace, and Jon Latham - a really fun night - with lots of cool people in the crowd.  I am pretty exhausted.  Just three more official nights of AMA to go, and only a day and a half of work left.

Tonight Darrin Bradbury will be playing at Mercy Lounge as part of the ANTI Records showcase. 

On with the shuffle!

I am back!   I had a great time at Muddy Roots.  I will have a lengthy recap/overall observation about this weird, wild, and wonderful festival that is not 10 years old!

For now, I will just leave it at - it is a great music festival, it is a wonderful social event, and it is a hell of a lot of fun.

Onward,

We are finally ready to announce our second act for Week 5 of the E2TG 8th Anniversary Residency.  It is... MICROWAVE MOUNTAIN!!!!!  You may recall that MM was set to play last year, but unfortunately had to drop out due to some scheduling conflicts.  I am so thrilled to have on-board. Week 5 with The Big Dumb and Microwave Mountain is gong to be a trip!  Don't miss it (or any of our four other weeks).

We also have had some artist shifts to the previously announced schedule - so here is the FINAL LINEUP!

Now, we need to jump back into our first shuffle in over a week! Let's go!

We are back!  A ton of new music already added to get to and a ton of new music not yet added.  Things are heating up around here with Muddy Roots coming at the end of this month and Americana Fest coming next month, and then the E2TG Fall Residency.  Whew!  All I can say is strap yourself in and enjoy the ride, I know I will!

Onward and upward, we are long on music but short on time!  Let's go!  Today's shuffle definitely lives up to my stated goal of featuring the most diverse list of music as I possible can.
