Some inspiration.
Sometimes all you need is some good music. It was Jenni's birthday this past weekend and we went to see Eisley. For those of you who do not know , JB and I really love and appreciate their music. They are made up of all siblings and 1 cousin, and they are very pleasing to the ear. They were opening for the Fray (who we are not fans of) and we drove the 45 mintues to listen to their 30 minute set at the Shoreline amphitheater before packing up our little blanket and heading home. On the way out they were by their merch booth signing autographs. Jenni and I stood in the shadows and watched them....those youngsters who make pretty music. *sigh* then our friends told us to stand in line and meet them and we were like "Um no". Because:
A: we felt too cool for that
B: we felt shy
and
C: we felt old

But we stood in line anyways. yes we were the oldest except for the kids standing with their parents. We got up there and were like "you're really good'' and were all shy and dorky. Oh well. It made our night and it was JENNI"S BIRTHDAY!!!!!!
The next night I saw Tegan and Sara play in a small theater. Wow. They are some chatty chatty mama's. I've seen them play a handful of times but never in my life have I watched them play when they talk for a good hour. The show was over 2 hours. They played their entire new album and some old stuff. It was really fun except there was no air in the theater and I was silently wishing they would just come to my house and finish the set so I didn't have to sweat my butt off in the theater. No luck. But it was a great show and I left feeling good about music.
We are sending out the record tomorrow to be mixed. FINALLY. Boys and Girls,,,,,,I wish you all knew the blood sweat tears and work we've put into this . I hope you like it!! I'm so excited. And we promise the best cd release show ever...

Remember. Be kind and wear your sunscreen!!
