Hey there, Solid State! How was your weekend?
Mine was terrific. Perhaps too terrific, actually. So terrific, in fact, that my work week is off to an awfully rough start. I don’t want to be one of those people who say they need a vacation from their vacations. I hate that shit — almost as much as when people say they’ll “See you next year!” around New Year’s Eve. But honestly, that’s what I feel like today; I need another weekend.
Worst. Monday. Ever.
I’m too spent to blog properly at the moment, so here’s a little tidbit from a blogger over in jolly ol’ England who has some really nice things to say about our own Colin Clary.
BTW, I didn’t actually Google Colin. That’d be kinda creepy. I just thought the Google thing flowed nicely for a title. Our food editor, Suzanne Podhaiser, graciously sent me the link.
See? There I go copping out again . . . sheesh.


The Smittens and Colin have gotten props on the British site Indie-mp3.co.uk, as well. I always find it interesting when bands from Vermont get a bit of buzz overseas by happenstance. I think the NE Pop Fest shows have helped spread their name about. Which is good, because all parties involved certainly deserve it.
The great folk blog songs: illinois also dropped some love on Clary last month. Here’s the link:http://songsillinoismp3.blogspot.com/2007/07/new-song-from-colin-clary-blowin-off.htmlsongs:illinois also posted about our own Starline Rhythm Boys recently too.http://songsillinoismp3.blogspot.com/2007/07/honky-tonk-friday-starline-rhythm-boys.html
The Cush play their first show in England tonight. Does anyone know if Burlington has a “sister city” there?
