The month of May.

This has always been my favorite month of the year, and although it's about to come to an end, I did manage to do a few things worth sharing.

First up: My lover and I went to Florida for a week.

We slept in everyday, drank beer on the beach, watched the NBA playoffs, ate some fantastic seafood (Old Bay Steamer STAND UP!), and generally had a great, relaxing time. Pretty much everyday around 3:00 we'd walk from our condo down to the Tom Thumb convenience store to get beer and bottled water. On our way we saw a bunch of flowers that looked VERY distinct:

Second: Boom Bap was crazy. It was rumored to be the "last one for a while," and the people definitely showed up. Pics can be found at the BPM The Street website.

Finally: Radski and I spun for damn near six hours on Memorial Day over on the east side. It was my first time in that particular area, and it had a nice little feel to it. They absolutely BUTCHERED my man's name on the flyer though...

Radksi1? Oh yeah he's dope. He pulled out a Nashville record that I had to take a picture of. This shit was real dirty and real funky too, so I'm gonna have to be on the lookout. But peep the label...

TURN IT UP!

Anyway, I've been somewhat busy trying to figure out what's next for the Nashville music scene this summer (and on). I've talked to a couple people about getting some new parties going (RIP Funky Good Time and Boom Bap), and I'm pretty positive that we're gonna be able to push forward with the support of the people. So be on the lookout for Bowls, Geezus, Rate, and Radski....with a couple NEW parties coming sooner rather than later.

Until next time,

Bowls

PS: I'm hype for this DJ Numark set tomorrow at 12th and Porter. I've been living here for almost five years and this will mark the first time I've stepped in that venue. I'm sure I'll run into a bunch of you guys there. Peace!
