We'll never run out of names

Every now and again I come across a band name that makes me think we MUST be running out of names. But when I look at it another way, it makes me think that the possibilities are endless. Exhibit A: Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. 

A friend introduced me to this album last night. I bought it immediately and I cannot wait to devour it whole. (I will wait, however, as there is other music in the house today for professional reasons and I'm quite enjoying eavesdropping.)

Thanks, Nick!
(New music to be added to the player soon. I promise.)

Why I love playing weddings

First of all, I should say up front that I resisted playing weddings for years because I thought I would hate it. People told me I would hate it and I believed them. And then I actually played one, as a kind of favor for my sister. And I had a blast! So now I play weddings and honestly, I love it. I always get turned on to good music during my interactions with the bride and groom. Right now I'm listening to an album I bought for a wedding I did Saturday night. If I was still working at The World's Largest Record Store, I would have heard this one already. But I don't, so I didn't. And this new Estelle record is a treat! It's lovely summer listening. I'll have to tracks posted soon, so check back if you want to have a listen.
