July 20th Playlist! "But it's all so easy, All you gotta do is try, Try a little tenderness"

Thank goodness for last night's rain and cool breeze to ease the heat of the past few days. My house has been as hot as it is outside... I have been ready for a break from the hot sun and the humidity. But I'm not complaining. I don't like to complain about the heat in the summer because we have so much cold in the winter that it just seems greedy or something. This is my last show for a couple of weeks, but fear not! My next show will be MY RADIO SHOW!!! I have waited 7 years to have another birthday show. It's going to be awesome! I'll "see" you in three weeks! August 10th. Put it on your calendar.

July 6th Playlist! "Strike two... Baby I'm howlin for you"

There were two highlights from my life last week. One was finishing my fourth half Ironman triathlon. The other was seeing The Black Keys live in Saskatoon. To be honest, I'm not sure which one I'm more stoked about! They were both super awesome and a great time. One big difference was that I was super glad to be done the triathlon, but I didn't want The Black Keys concert to end EVER. They did promise to come back so those of you who missed out on tickets, keep your ear to the ground and maybe you, too, can see this extraordinary band live.
