I had to dedicate the first post of my favorite month to one of my favorite "songs of the season"... "October" by Broken Bells! I put this song on my monthly playlist but mixpod was being difficult (per usual) and wouldn't allow me to add the studio version. Take a listen below then check out this awesome feature on Broken Bells' website!
Remember what they say
There's no shortcut to a dream
It's all blood and sweat
And life is what you manage in between

Flashback Friday
"Autumn Sweater" by Yo La Tengo, 1997 (but I didn't hear it until 2005)
I remember when I delivered my first radio news report in college, "Autumn Sweater" was the song that played into the segment. I wrote down the lyrics on my script and asked the DJ what the artist and title was. At this point in my life, I wasn't at all familiar with indie or alternative music. I consider this one of the songs that led me down the path towards the light. It was love at first listen!
It's starting to get pretty chilly in Pittsburgh. This weekend it's only going to be in the 40s... brrr! Autumn is most definitely my favorite season. I love my sweaters and I love this song! I thought it was apropos for this time of year :)

Debauchery In the Desert Tour!
Can't wait for my first trip to the desert... finally! Looking forward to gambling, champagne limo trips, tailgating Arizona style, Steelers, wine tasting, rocks and so much more! I'm staying at the Flamingo, so I'm going to "keep an eye out" for the spirit of Bugsy Siegel (he supposedly still haunts the hotel) and I'll be looking up in Phoenix for the lights!
