An Evening With Mumford & Sons

“Do you think it’s worth it?” Dave looks at me and I feel my frustration piling over. We have been on the road for five hours watching the brake lights fill the freeway ahead of us. “It’s always worth it,” I snapped back at him. I knew my pre-show anxieties were setting in and mixing…

San Diego: A Story of Sunrises

One of my goals for the New Year was to wake up early and greet each day with a fresh and open mind. The best way for me to do this was to wake before the sun and watch her beautiful rays wave hello to the moon. Dave and I had been spending our final…

Selfie Seals

Lord Huron: Strange Trails

Earlier in May, Dave and I went to see Lord Huron at the Observatory North Park in San Diego. They are currently touring for their sophomore album, Strange Trails. Psst.. You should probably go!  We had both seen the young band a few years ago when they opened for Dave Matthews Band at the Gorge.…

“Please.” “No.” “…please..” “No.”  *** Waking up Saturday morning, the gorgeous sunshine peeking through the blinds and the warm weather seeping through the open windows, I was reminded why I love Southern California so much. It was only 7:30am and already a seemingly perfect day outside. Dave and I got up, chowed down some eggs…
