I've just had another really great night. Let me just say, I *love* the music scene in Nashville.
It's just amazing because almost every time I go out to see someone sing, I find more singer/songwriters that I want to check out and support... my myspace page is getting chock full of musical talent. I may have to make another page for my personal stuff, because I don't want any fun filler stuff to distract people from the awesome music that I want them to discover. Tonight I found two more great artists, and I'll be adding them to my list.
If you haven't tried the music scene in Nashville, and I'm talking about the writer's rounds and small gigs around town, check out www.myspace.com/gwenbanks to find a few talented people to go out and see and expand on your experience from there. A few of my favorite places to go are Bluebird Cafe on Hillsboro in Green Hills, Lyrix on Peabody and 1st ave, Fuel on 2nd ave, Dan McGuinness Pub on Music Row, and 12th and Porter... on 12th and Porter.
And if you need any suggestions, just ask! :)

Starting out
One has to start somewhere, so where better than at the beginning...
No, you're right, that might be a bit excessive. Why don't we just start from where we are now.
I got back a couple of weeks ago from this year's main family vacation. We had a great 10 days in the lovely state of California and my family and I hit Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, San Diego Zoo (and the trolley tour), and a bit of LA (Kodak Theatre on the night of Al Pacino's AFI Lifetime achievement award, to be precise). All in all, a great time, and a very relaxing vacation. Didn't even hurt to go back to work, because life was just too darn cool to be upset about it. :)
Now today, I had visit number four of my five Laser Hair Removal treatments, and let me tell you something. This stuff HURTS!! Smarted like a devil. I definitely see an epidural in my future, because I apparently have a lower pain tolerance than I thought I did. Geez. I have to say, though, even though right after the treatment I stung like a banshee and had red welts all over my legs, the redness is basically gone now and my legs look normal again. But from the smell of burning hair in the room today, I think we killed off a number of folicles that will never see the light of day again. So mission accomplished I suppose. The nurses themselves, however, will do well in their off hours for a little extra cash as dominatrix types, though. Shoot, if I paid for this treatment myself, imagine who else might. They've got my recommendation.
One last note for the day. If you haven't found my myspace website yet, and you love music, take a look. I'm trying to support the singer/songwriter talents in Nashville and San Diego, and my friend Matt Martino has his 1st CD release party coming up in July. Two parties, actually, and I'm totally stoked to see him where he is right now. We're going to have a big bash in downtown Nashville on July 28th at BB Kings, so if you want more info, let me know.
