Lucero Family Picnic. C’mon, you know you want to go. You can buy me a beer and we’ll hang, okay? Cory Branan’s going to be there. William Elliott Whitmore. Glossary. Two Cow Garage. Southern Bitch. Yeah, you know you don’t want to miss it now, huh?
And hey, Mucklewain is happening again this year. We’ll be there too, although you all need to head over to their site and harass them to post the line-up, ’cause July is almost over and I’m dying to know who gonna be there this time. As with last year, we’ll do our best to bring you reviews of the bands playing and coverage of the show.

I have this massive stack of CDs sitting next to me, and I keep shuffling through them trying to decide what to review next. A more organized person would’ve made some system: alphabetical or chronological (in the order they arrived). But it’s more fun to shuffle them around like cards. Plus, mood plays a huge part. [And laziness.--Mimi] I can’t do justice to something sad when I’m gleeful and vice versa.

As I write this, it’s overcast and about 87 degrees out, so humid I almost feel like I’m swimming. It’s also only 9 am. Oh, summer! How I longed for you, and now you do me like this? I can complain endlessly about the Southern summer, but the truth is, I love it when it’s like this in the mornings. [This is hardly even the South. Srly.--Mimi] If I could, I would sit on the porch, drinking iced coffee and watching the world go by for hours until the sun burned away the clouds, and it finally got too hot to sit outside. The swampy heat slows me down in a way that’s oddly pleasurable. Sure it sucks to stand up and realize you’re sweaty, even behind your knees, but if you’re lucky a breeze will kick up and make it all worth it. Plus, I’m not exactly cold-blooded, but I do want to wallow in the wet heat a little, as it makes me feel warm through to my bones, which is always excellent (expect perhaps when I’m trying to sleep–but who needs sleep, I’ll sleep when I’m old).

Because it’s the 4th of July, we thought we’d do a totally cheesy patriotic post. Not what you expected? Well, that’s because you only know us on the internet.
We’re not going to talk about Lee Greenwood and Toby Keith (god, the first Gulf War was pretty wretched with that Lee Greenwood song, wuddinit? Jeez. When they busted that one back out after 9/11, I thought about moving to…oh right, I had already moved to Canada).
