A Comment about Comments (Or the Lack Thereof)
Most bloggers aren't in it for the comments, but we appreciate seeing them from time to time. They remind us that this mindless banter is relevant to someone outside of our heads. Which is important for helping a blog get better. So those of you who spend your time, soaking over my carefully thought out words, I ask you one small favor:
Thank you.

Just a Bit of Randomness (Maybe)
(Hopefully this is a bit of reassurance to those of you who thought I'd lose my randomness....lol)
I need this little girl's outlook on...well EVERYTHING!! So I can do anything good, too.

The Tuesday Groove, March 22, 2011
So, I've been doing some 'blogger soul-searching' lately, and have come to the conclusion that this blog has no real focus. It's random, like I am, which is not necessarily a bad thing. But random posting is hard to organize, and hard to get people to relate to. So in the spirit of organization and presenting things that are easy to relate to, I have decided to only post music on Tuesdays.
Yes, I know. *sad face* It hurts me, too!
But instead of one song, I'll upload at least THREE for your listening pleasure. So maybe it'll all balance out in the end.
So without further bantering, I present the Tuesday Groove:
With one of the music industry's most well received festivals wrapping up this past Sunday, I am still pining all the killer artists and bands that I didn't get to see at SXSW (South by Southwest). Though the Cool Kids and B.o.B. would have been near the top of my list, here are some other acts I wish I could have caught.
The Kills --- Satellite
I remember when a friend of mine put me on to this group back in like '05 (with an awesome song called Superstition), and I was expecting them to really hit big. While they have always held weight on the indie scene, it finally seems like the rest of the world is read to take notice.
Lenka --- The Show
Lenka is such a feel-good indulgence, that you don't care who looks at you cross eyed while you're singing her 'awaken the karaoke star in you' lyrics, while in line at the local supermarket. Or maybe that's just me...lol. Don't judge me: this song just demands that I sing along!!
Fitz and the Tantrums --- Don't Got to Work it Out
One of the coolest and most unconventional R&B groups on the scene right now, Michael Fitzpatrick and company deliver funky performances in a genre that could use a few alternate sounds. I personally am sick of hearing Trey Songz and Chris Brown all the damn time!! Besides, Noelle Scaggs is so awesome.
So there you have it, the Tuesday Groove, for March 22, 2011, with emphasis on just a few of the amazing acts at this past week's SXSW music festival. I, for one, am already planning to be in Austin this time next year. Have a great Tuesday, folks, and spend today trying to find a way to truly enjoy your groove.
