  *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


Moving on through the week!  Happy Halloween and happy Thursday!   Let's jump right into the shuffle!

Got those rainy day, mid-week, stayed out too late blues...   But, not really blues, but it is mid-week and rainy, and I did stay out too late...   Another fine edition of $2 Tuesday - great hangs, cool music, and $2 Yazoos for $2 admission.  Jack Silverman was dazzling with his jazzy, improvisational guitar sounds as he opened the night of music, Kristen Englenz made her $2 Tuesday debut to close out the night - with a killer band. In between was host Derek Hoke and Cara Louise from St. Louis. Plus DJ Tim Hibbs spinning Halloween themed songs.

Onward, it is Wednesday and that is day, we get wild and just throw open the shuffle to whatever songs are on my phone. Let's go!

Good morning.  It is Tuesday.  I had an enjoyable evening at Dee's in Madison.  Checking out Madison Guild Monday with Luisa Lopez, Tom Mason, Meghan Hayes, Mando Saenz, and Bob Lewis - with Megan Palmer making several guest appearances.

After that, I stayed for Cordovas who were remarkable as always.

A relatively short shuffle this morning due to some technical issues (i.e. apps not behaving like I want them to) but what are you going to do? Let's go!

On we go,  back at it for another week of E2TG. I am hard at work developing a plan for my proposed "reboot" of E2TG scheduled for early 2020.  I have some good things in mind.

Now, let's get on with the Music City Monday shuffle!

And that's a wrap!  Thank you to everyone who came out.  Last night was a blast.  The Big Dumb and Microwave Mountain were fantastic. We had a good crowd and a good time.

Thanks to The 5 Spot for being awesome as always. Thanks to everyone who came out throughout the five weeks.  Thanks to Ben Arthur, Conrad y Skordalia, Ryan Sobb, Don Gallardo, Jason Erie, The Truehearts, Josh Gray, Meghan Hayes, The Big Dumb, and Microwave Mountain for making me look like I know what I am doing. 

I have something different in mind for 2020 and our 9th Anniversary, but I am going to take some time to absorb all the goodness of our 8th Anniversary,

Onward, time for another Trending Thursday Shuffle - let's go!

I took an unexpected day off yesterday, so for today's Wild Wednesday shuffle - we are going to pull from the "New Music" playlist.  Don't worry, it is pretty wild as it is.
