Today was the 10-year anniversary of our first date. We went to a Reds game…
And then we went to listen to a couple of bands at a bar that no longer exists…
It was a really amazing night. And the rest, as they say, is history. 😀⚾🎶😍🥰❤️

Hard to believe, it was nine years ago.
Nine years ago today, my parents, Genifer and I got to see Sir Paul McCartney perform live in concert at Great American Ball Park during his On the Run tour…
It was an incredible show! Just beyond words good. And we had a perfect vantage point of the show from our seats…

Spaghetti western surf music?!
Back at the end of January when we were getting coffee one morning, and we noticed this poster in Sidewinder for The AmpFibians surf music series at Northside Tavern…
We were really curious so tonight we walked over to Northside Tavern to check it out…
The first band at Northside Tavern tonight was Jake Logan and the Midnight Riders. They said they play spaghetti western surf music and it was awesome…
The second band was The AmpFibians and they played more traditional surf music…
And they were awesome too…
I’m not sure what was going on in the backroom at Northside Tavern but there were a bunch of people back there…
What a really fun night of incredible surf music at Northside Tavern! 😀🌊🎶❤️

They released the 2020 lineup this morning for Forecastle Fest…
And it looks like we’ll be heading back to Louisville this summer to see Jack Johnson play on Friday! Plus both the Louisville Bats and Louisville City FC play at home on Saturday. It’s already shaping up for another fun weekend in July! 😀🗺️🎶❤️

Four years ago.
Four years ago, we saw The Mersey Beatles at Aronoff Center…
They were so amaaazing. Best Beatle tribute band I think I’ve ever seen. Thanks for the memories, Timehop! 😀🇬🇧🎶🦕❤️

Summer Gods Tour.
This evening we went to see Third Eye Blind play at Riverbend’s PNC Pavilion…
It was an incredible show! Third Eye Blind is just amazing live. I posted a few more videos of their performance to my Instagram. What a show! What a night! 😀🎸🎶❤️
And on the way to our car, we got a beautiful view of tonight’s full moon…
😀🌕❤️

Louisville is pretty awesome.
We had such a good time in Louisville this weekend. Our hotel was right across the street from KFC Yum Center. It was the perfect location for our trip. On Friday, we walked to Lousiville’s Waterfront Park where we saw The Killers at Forecastle and had some incredible Louisville-style pizza from Bearno’s afterward. On Saturday, we walked to get coffee from Please&Thank You. We were just going to get coffee and go back to the hotel. But we wandered off to find a house close by where Thomas Edison lived for a year when he was nineteen and then proceeded to stumble upon three breweries within a few blocks of each other… Falls City, Akasha, and Goodwood. We made it back to the hotel to rest and change before we headed back out to walk over to Against the Grain Brewing at Lousiville Slugger Field before we watched a Lousiville Bats game and met the Louisville Bat mascot. Afterward, we had more Lousiville-style pizza from Impellizzeri’s. Sunday morning we had breakfast at Dish on Market before heading home. Louisville is just a little over an hour away. We’ll definitely have to come back when Louisville City finish their USL soccer stadium if not sooner. 😀🗺️📷❤️
Who knew Louisville is so dang awesome? And we can’t wait to go back.

Bunbury Saturday.
After the dropping the buddies at Best Friends, we made it downtown and checked into our room for the weekend at the Renaissance Hotel in the old Bartlett Building at the corner of Walnut and Fourth Streets. Our room was really nice…
And then we walked down to Sawyer Point and Yeatman’s Cove to experience the big fun musical excitement of Bunbury Music Festival…
Genifer got us VIP tickets…
One of the best parts of being VIP was how close you could get to the stage…
One of the first bands we got to listen to was the band we were the most excited about, Third Eye Blind…
It was the first time I’ve ever seen them live, and they were awesome! I took a handful of videos of their performance. After Third Eye Blind finished, we walked across Sawyer to the other big stage. It was kind of a mess to get to over to the other stage. There were really three paths: One to the right through the people waiting in long lines for food, one to the left through the people waiting in lines for the bathrooms or through the center through the people listening to the music. We waded through the sea of people waiting in lines for the restrooms and eventually made it to the other VIP area…
The Saturday night headliner was Incubus…
There were so many great bands that played tonight. It was really a fantastic time. And once again, Third Eye Blind was just terrific. They were the highlight of our Bunbury Saturday. After Incubus completed their set, we walked from Sawyer Point back up from the riverfront into Central Business District, down Fourth Street passed our hotel to get some late night Dominos pizza…
We used to get Dominos pizza all the time when we lived downtown. Dominos pizza is one of the few things we miss about not living downtown. Because Dominos pizza is so good and so cheap…
And then we went back to the hotel to eat our delicious pizza and then we were off to bed. It was a really great Saturday of music at Bunbury Music Festival. 😀🎸🎶🍕❤️

Fourth of July.
Today was the annual Northside Fourth of July Parade. Last year, we skipped the parade because it was raining. And we were trying to get situated after just moving into our house. The weather this year wasmaybe a little on the warm side but pretty perfect. The parade was scheduled to step off from way up Hamilton Avenue at noon. So we walked down Pullan Avenue to try to stake out a spot streetside about fifteen minutes beforehand…
While we stood there waiting for our first glimpse of the parade, more and more people continued to line the sides of the street…
There was still no sign of the parade coming down the hill as we continued to bake in the hot noon sun…
So we started walking down Hamilton Avenue towards Hoffner Park…
Instead of standing with the masses, we walked down to Chase Avenue and proceeded over Northside Yacht Club. NSYC was having a Fourth of July USA beer & burger party with a Rhinegeist tap takeover…
Genifer had the Burrito Mexican Lager. I had the Maracuja Gose with Passionfruit. And we shared in the legendary NSYC Burger awesomeness…
That was a really great burger! Afterwards, we walked over to Urban Artifact…
And then we stopped back through Northside Rock n’ Roll Carnival for a little bit…
When we got home, we ordered a delicious NYPD Station House pizza…
When we got upstairs, we could hear fireworks all around us but we couldn’t see any…
But then we started to see some from our bedroom window…
We had a great Fourth of July enjoying all things Northside. Maybe we’ll watch the parade next year. 😀🍔🍺🍻🎸🍕🇺🇸

Northside Rock n’ Roll Carnival.
This evening we walked down Hamilton Avenue to Jacob Hoffner Park in Northside to check out the Northside Rock n’ Roll Carnival in a celebration of all things 45223…
We got a couple of tokens for beer…
Because they had Urban Artifact’s Keypunch on tap!
The first Keypunch of the summer…
Northside’s NYPD and Bridges were serving food…
And so were Dojo Gelato and Red Sesame…
We got some delicious Red Sesame chicken tacos…
They had some pretty neat Northside Rock n’ Roll Carnival t-shirts…
And the proceeds from the t-shirts went to Happen and Bread Winner…
Django Western Taco was also serving food as well…
We had to get a jerk chicken torta with pineapple and elote corn on the cob…
There was a large collection of really diverse and interesting bands all with very unique and distinctly different sounds…
What an incredibly fun celebration of the Northside community. 😀❤️🇺🇸
