Block party - Bluegrass - Bikes

Tuesday, September 25th

Block party in the neighborhood on Atlanta Avenue.  Ben went to the Braves game with friends, Stephen and Towner.  I hopped on my bike and rode with a couple friends in the neighborhood to hear bluegrass band, Packway Handle.  We had lots of great food, beverages, and enjoyed our neighbors for a random Tuesday night gathering.  Ben joined me for a bit after the game.  Our bike rides home at night together are some of our most fond memories.

Ben used to listen to Packway Handle in college.  My first trip to NYC in August of last year with Ben we saw them play in Brooklyn.  We met one of the band members, Josh, and his wife.  They live in our sister neighborhood so it is always a treat to see them play.

Matisyahu - private concert

Thursday, August 23, 2012

Matisyahu played a private concert at our neighbor's house in her living room.  She had won a national contest and we were able to attend.  There were about 20 people invited.  We all sat in the living room, had wine, and listened as he played an acoustic set with his guitarist.  He rode in on his Harley with his 5 year old son, Shahlom. 

We were all added to the guest list to his show later that night at the Masquerade.  WHAT A TREAT!  Check him out and the link in our local paper, Creative Loafing, about the night and to see more pictures...  Matisyahu in Grant Park - Atlanta

Check out his Pandora station - you will likely hear some Bob Marley and great Reggae tunes.  One of the acoustic songs played was "Sunshine."  Check it out on youtube http://youtu.be/QPuU-iTIFoI

Yesterday Ben, Stephen, & I went to the Sweetwater 420 Festival in Candler Park.  Sweetwater is a local Brewery in Atlanta and they sponsor this festival each year.  We had a great time and loved seeing Railroad Earth play - upbeat  bluegrass band.  Thank you to our neighbor, Skip, who gave us VIP Passes!
