  My sister just asked Facebook, “If you only got one song to play at your wedding, what would it be?” She’s been married for 11 years come the end of June. She’s helping her best friend plan her wedding. I feel like she’s doing this with the thought that she will never get to help me plan one (I wouldn’t doubt it at this point…she’ll probably die before I find someone I love that much, and reciprocates). Still, I have an answer.

  All Young Girls Are Machine Guns - Leave Me Lonely (Ukulele Original)

  It’s been a long, long time, and you can hear the air conditioner in the back, and I forget how to play the song a couple times, and there are lighting issues, and you can catch my niece and nephew arguing at the end, and the video quality is total crap, but it’s a video.
  
  Ah, internet video celebrity. (Haaaaaa…)

  (Think of the ostrich laughing in that Family Guy clip at the end when I write Haaaaa…)

  So, I’m playing at O’Leavers, Thursday, February 16th with Caroline Smith and The Good Night Sleeps. I am so ridiculously excited and terrified for this. I played with them the last time they were in town and I botched it up real good because that, my friends, was the last time I got drunk. Then they turned out to be ah-mazing and I felt like utter crap for boozing on their time. I didn’t take a penny and bought a cd and now I will be making up for it by advertising the hell out of this little show.
  
  They are ridiculous. It is ridiculous how good they are. SO good. You should come…but only if you’re older than 21 (sorry).

  Dorians feat. Artyom Manukyan - Es Kulam

  I couldn’t tell you what a word of this means, but it is beautiful and sad and the video is heart-wrenching.

  20 Different Days - The Golden Hearts

  The Golden Hearts is my dear friend Adam Hawkins, without whom, I might never ventured into the world of music, and his lovely lady Katey Sleeveless.

  I’ve been overly weepy lately, and naturally, this just set my eyes a-tearin’ up. It’s worth the watch/listen. For the song, it starts at about 3:40, but the footage beforehand is just so wonderful. And at one point Adam plays rocks. Which is awesome.
