The Side Effects of Endorphins

Going out last night the world seems in a much better mood since the election.

I love live music. Last night we ventured over to the Tractor Tavern in Ballard. I love that neighborhood.. it feels so European with cars.

I am a new fan of Anna Tivel and went to see her. She was the opening band so only played for 45 minutes.. She played acoustic and I really like her band. Still the vibe was edgy nice and we enjoyed it.

Here is the song Animal Poem , which I love. I love the cadence of this song as well as the underlying poetry..

I did get to meet Anna as she was quite, reserved and damn Smart.

Not to many people go from dinner with her grandkids to the tractor Tavern, and on a school night. We only made it through about seven of the headliner and she was engaging.

Her name was Margaret Glapsy Anna described her. She is a bad ass.. her voice projected better than Anna‘s and had more of a stage presence when playing acoustic. I think she sounds like Alanis Morissette in this song.

And a big shout out to the Tractor Tavern for being a very accommodating and acoustic sound venue.

Tomorrow, I’m heading to see a band called Landroid in Everett. I’m going solo. Everett is that small that I’m walking to the concert.. i’ve been listening to Landroid lately and it’s kind of has a beach house vibe only a little darker. I think it’s going to be great..

Handels Messiah must be too right around the corner
