This song has really caught my ear lately. The electronic beat is catchy and the lyrics are such happy queer love, it's just awesome. It really resonates in a way with the struggle I am having with my wife accepting the change to our relationship since coming out. Just want her to do it like her mother told her not to do. ;) 

 

 

I really like that. I could probably dance a rumba to that with my wife.

This is one of my favourite songs and with the pandemic still on going, it holds a new place in my heart. Most of my family and friends live several hours away and I have not been able to see them in quite some time. Including my parents and sister. I haven't seen them since I came out, with the exception of my dad, who I got to spend 30 minutes with, socially distancing about a month and a bit ago.

 

My wife finds the song very sad; but I find inspiration in it. A love so strong you will cross rivers and roads to get back to them.

I thought that looked familiar - The Head and The Heart - I found them right when I found Mumford & Sons and The Limineers - love all 3 bands

I agree, 3 great bands. Love the mountain folk rock sound in general. Good guitar, twangy banjos, good mix of up and down tempos and good storytelling.

Can't agree more - I also love the Duhks and Nickel Creek

I've only heard a few Nickel Creek tunes but one of their members Chris Thile hosted "Live from Here" (the successor to Praire Home Companion) until it was recently canceled due to funding.  He is so talented.  It was a great music show.

Chris received a genius award and with his work you can see why. I got to see nickel creek 3 times they were excellent in a class all their own. Thile was a child protege on mandolin. Check out "This Side" by Nickel Creek a wonderful hybrid.

Thanks for those tracks @Shay, hadn't heard either before. They were lovely.

 

Here's another one of my faves in the genre. It's a married couple making some beautiful music. They've got some folks supporting on this live version. They do an amazing cover of Sufjan Stevens' Amsterdam, but it's a Spotify exclusive. https://open.spotify.com/track/2Cyi6ezjKmGuXFrJglqQYl?si=y2gtBalxTK6yXcSxQQ-myQ

OMG - I really love Mandolin Orange - I subscribe to American Songwriter and they have turned me on to so many artists I'd never be able to locate - Mandolin Orange is one and I love their stuff.

On the way back from grocery shopping today - I heard a song by a group from Tulsa and I met the keyboard player when I was working at Leon Russell's old studio called The Church. I have to share a story he told. He was like 16 or 18 and came to the studio and Bob Marley and the Wailers were recording. Bob invoted him to join them in the studio. Marley offered him a cigar sized gange and he figured it should be ok after all Marley and band smoked ALL DAY LONG. Well, he took a toke walked back to the Hammond B3 organ and couldn't figure out how to play (although he is an amzing B3 player).

 

So they played one of his band THE GAP BAND songs and I had to have it here.

Rainy Day - someone Cyndee reminded me of the infancy of progressive underground free form radio and I used to listen every night - hear is my favorite weird song title and song I listened to.

      Well every girl needs a play toy. I just happen to have 7 of them.   My hoses finally came in. have the passenger front installed. Now trying to figure out how to do the drivers side when the tire is still on and there is no room to do it.  I'll figure sumthin out.  I is smrt.   Well have the wife home with me. She wound up falling back asleep after turning her alarm off. I woke her up at 6:20. She is due to work at 6. She decided to just call in.       MaeBe that is what this thread was started for. A chat place to share our days and thoughts for the day.   Hugs   Kymmie

      @Willow, it's great to hear about your wife's progress! It's also fun to hear about day-to-day stuff, like work. It's nice to think of this thread as a kind of morning chit chat place to go, like if we had a big table at The Daily Grind and were just listening and sharing over our morning brews.

      I'm at 11 months and definitely feel much better! I did go through rollercoaster of emotions. I'm looking forward to year 2 and hopefully fill out more. congratulations on making it this far and you are correct that you are in the early stages.

      Awesome news about your wife @Willow!!!   And, I hope everything goes well at work. There is certainly generational difference in how we look at employment requirements and what we expect/demand.

      That's awesome news!

      Good morning    I got to sleep in today, and I have a short day. Noon to 4:30.  I get to ease back into my work week. Looks like we have an abundance of senior staff today.  The top three have a 2 hour cross over together, Mgr, Asst and me.  I wonder what’s up.  I also see the asst isn’t getting her usual schedule at anytime this week, in fact, I have her schedule Thursday and Friday and she has mine.  I’m sure something is going on.     I do know that the Mgr would not mind if the Asst quit but she has no grounds to terminate her.  And then there is Richard.  He has the most years at the store, but he is very inflexible when it comes to his schedule he wants 32 hours no more and no less, 6:30 to 2 when he works nothing else and every Wednesday off.  So right now he’s getting 16 hours a week because that’s what works for our schedule.  No one is getting all the hours they would like, I’d love 9 to 5 MTWTF.  But that will never happen and I knew that when I started.  At least I don’t have to work 5pm to 0030 close.  I hate that shift.   I decided that I would not pursue the Jeep.  Yes I’d like to have one again but not right now.  Maybe someday.  Right now I have too much on my plate.  And maybe more coming at me.   Sorry for boring you with my work things today but that’s about all I’ve got.   Except, wife update! We went to Costco yesterday and she walked with the aid of her roller walker but she walked Costco!  Back is looking really good.  The deep wound is really coming back together  nicely.  Today she said she maybe over did it yesterday but that’s exercise for you the following day you are always a bit achy or tired but that’s a good thing!   Thanks for listening (reading)   hugs   Willow

      Thanks for explaining this, @VickySGVI would hate for this issue to be over. As long as there are trans folks alive it's never going to be over. We are, therefore we are.

      Good morning everyone,    @Birdie I love that shirt, it looks great on you.    I’m sitting on the back deck swing enjoying the birds and waiting for the dew to lift off the grass, so I can mow the lawn. We’re expecting four days of rain. The morning coffee is almost gone, so it won’t be long before the yard work begins.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I'm glad you've found an avenue of care and that is less glacial than the NHS! Let the countdown begin!

      I didn't know they required judges to be medical doctors as well!
