one wolf

One Wolf, Fry's Adventures, Creating, Alan and The Literary Greats. wow.


Hola! Like most weeks, this one has been crazy.


Is Michael J. Fox on my shirt? Why, yes he is.
One Wolf played a show at the end of their three week tour in Dallas at The Cavern. They are buddies I met while living in Lubbock who make awesome music. At the end of the set, Daniel Markham announced that they had a few shirts left from tour and Mr Fox was on them. I had to get one...so I did. I also proudly wore it to work the next day! It was so good to see those boys.
remember when brandi hung out with them? wacky wednesday post? oh geez.

also...
I went to Fry's for the first time...odd. Has anyone been there before?

My friend Lauren and I were in need of some headphones and it is the closest electronics store to where we work. First off, it is completely too big and it took us way too long to find the headphones, and second, the place is just weird. 
Along our way to the back left corner of the store (where we later found the headphones) we found

this hat
and

next to

and New Moon hit a whole new low.
they are selling Blood (energy drink/candy) next to Twilight stuff. I read the package and it even has heating instructions. WHAT? At first I laughed then I just got sad that something like this exists.

oh and BONUS:

It's like the spice girls + instruments. 
I guess they have a huge following. Please click here to watch a clip.

What a fun adventure.

Well today/tonight I was running around doing a million things because Alan (our wednesday music man/my love) is coming in town tomorrow and I'm trying to get my space collected. I can't wait to see him. I worked on a few things this evening to pass the time because I'm a dork and still can't sleep when I'm excited about the next day.


finger knitting

 made some cards, feather dangles, feather headbands (i'm mailing two off this weekend for a very special lady in Nashville), and my map project. As you can see it is past midnight so I'm going to try and sleep now. If I don't, tomorrow will be the pits. 

I need all my energy because tomorrow The Literary Greats are playing in Dallas! 
If you live around DFW, come out to Bryan Street Tavern :)

muchos besos

Shameless Self-Promotion



I work at an independent record store. I enjoy it, but it's not my love. 
 
(actual marquee at our old location)

I book shows around Lubbock. I like to see a venue filled up with friends and new faces, all excited about the show taking place, but there is still something I am more passionate about. 
 
(local band The Diamond Center's farewell show, cleverly dubbed Texodus)

I started booking bands independently last year and have since found it to be one of the most enjoyable, challenging and non money-making jobs I have taken on. Maybe one day this line of work will allow me to buy Kelly more Pantone mugs or a lifetime supply of black bean and avocado burgers, but for now I plug along, simply trying to get bands I believe in shows all over.

Two of my acts just started East coast tours, three have just released new records, one is in Gwyneth Paltrow's backing band in a new movie, one recently celebrated their ten year anniversary and all of them are working hard and making music I'm proud to try and get in front of others. I am genuinley proud and honored to be working for these people, and I want to share them with you.
