My Heart is Racing

So yeah just in case you were wondering I work downtown and I love it.  There's a lot that goes on downtown at lunch and after work but today I just read something that put me a little over the moon about being at work downtown this summer.  Cars & Guitars  -finally a reason to care about IndyCar -a music festival that is showcasing some of the best Rockabilly acts around.

The act I'm most excited about is Hillbilly Casino.  Crazily enough I first heard them on Lisa Freemont Street's You Tube Channel but there is also going to be Los Straitjackets, Lee Rocker, Paul Pigat & Cousin Harley, The Pontani Sisters, Alberta locals  Eve Hell, and Raygun Cowboys and the best part is it is all free!  If I didn't live here I'd be jealous. 

I live walking distance from it all (read I can stumble home no parking problems, no DD issues).  All in all it kind of made a rather bland Friday extra special and I can't wait for things to get going.  Right now the Works is on in the Square but coming up is my next favorite festival because it is all the local restaurants out in the Square making me mini lunch things!  Eek summer you are finally here!
