p{color:blue;margin:30px}. Not sure why, but everytime I hear this song, actually Miss Welch in general, I just wanna pick up my guitar and play along.

Gillian and David Rawlings played Liberty Hall on the 11th. I managed to snag two videos before my camera ran the batteries down. The first is a for a song made popular by Johnny Cash called Tennessee Stud. The second is One Little Song with a bit of the beginning cut off. It was freakin' hot and Gillian and David seemed in high spirits... lots of stage banter. For me the highlight might h...

So I saw Bright Eyes a week or two ago in Columbus, and I haven't updated yet because, well, i was really disapointed. I was expecitng a show like the one they played at The Agora like 5 years ago, and it was really sub-par. I think one of the biggest problem was that it wasnt GA, and whoever mixed the sound sucked balls. Conor peaked like 10 times during his set. Even got feedback a few times!...

The weather has been wonderful. I've been sleeping with the windows open again and wearing dresses. I've been waking up in the morning and putting on some Gillian Welch while I get ready for my work day. In the midst of my morning activities, (making lunches, getting two kids dressed and ready for school, making coffee, finishing last night's laundry, feeding the animals) Gillian just makes i...

Everytime I have guests over I play Gillian Welch's Soul Journey resulting in many many compliments. Her voice just jumps out and grabs you and says come on ya'll lets make some music. Awesome news is, she's going to be at Cochella this year!!

What a dreary week its been here in Columbus, OH. I for one, am ready for the weekend!Have you all met Gillian Welch? I am sure most of you at least know the name...I love her! Her music I mean...such a terrific songwriter, and I could listen to her all day long...and I have today as a matter of fact. I will leave you all with a wonderful example of her talents...good night!

It's just after midnight here in Columbus,Ohio. I thought for a second that maybe I should wait until I was TOTALLY sober before I attempted to write this weekend's wrap up, but than I realized that such a retelling would probably be MUCH less honest. Comfest is everything I love and hate about Columbus all rolled up into one three day weekend.The 'scene' here is just small enough that you can'...

(but missed elvis costello - doh!)and...

I've got a headache comin on. I can feel it creeping up my spine and into the base of my skull and making it's home therein.I am overly stressed out with life's constant frustrations.I shouldn't be... ever.This song soothes my nagging headache. I can close my eyes and drift off into the beautiful voice of Gillian Welch and the jangle of the guitar and imagine I'm behind the wheel of that "flat ...

That's a serious question.I went to a Bright Eyes concert last night. Yes, I knew Gil and Dave were opening and that they would be wonderful, but I expected Conor Oberst to at least give them a run for their money.Do I even need to tell you that he did not?I don't know how they do it, but with two acoustic guitars, a banjo and a harmonica, these two consistently produce and perform music that j...
