St. Patty's Day

So after seeing all the green shirts around on Saturday for Shamrock Fest, I hope everyone didn't party all the Irish out of them before St. Patrick's Day. I've got friends coming into town and there is going to be a ton to do. Chris Bruno from the Lloyd Dobler Effect is playing at O'Sullivan's in Arlington during the day, there is a big outdoor thing going on at Front Page in Ballston, and at night Everyone But Pete is playing at the Auld Shebeen in Fairfax. These are just a few of the things to do, OnTap Magazine has a whole list of things to do all week.

What are your plans for St. Patty's???

iTunes iMix

So I was trying to figure out how to best keep people up to date with my music, and iTunes figured it out for me. I created an iMix, called C.J.'s Mix, that I can update as much as I want. It's only going to have music that you can download from iTunes, but thats better than nothing, right? This is the first time posting it, so if it looks off the first time, I'm sorry. Click the link below and it'll send you to my iMix. You need iTunes installed in order for it to work. Check it out and tell me what you think!

Music

So I left it out of the title for my blog, but music is also a huge part of my life. I am proud to know a ton of musicians in the Washington DC area, and several who can be considered national recording artists or who have moved to different parts of the world. My love for music has provided me with great friends, things to do, and a sense of belonging to a community. I can actually say that on several occasions I have even turned a profit from promoting something I love. In the coming weeks, I'll occasionally post about a band, a concert venue, an event, or a person whom I feel deserves a hand for their contributions to the music industry. I hope I don't bite off more topics than I can chew, but because this whole thing is so that I can voice an opinion that I already have in my head, I figure why not try?
