The reason that I write this blog now, is because most tickets for feature summer concerts are currently on sale, or will be going on sale this […]
I’m not talking about Bud Light. I’m talking about real, flavorful beer. Well, Jon and I love it- Strange Brew and Murphy’s are always on the top of our list simply for the great tap selection.

If you’re reading this then I’m sure you’re responsible for keeping me sane through these rough 8 months of unemployment. “Nobody said it was going to be easy but nobody said it was going to be this hard.” Yeah, I quoted Coldplay, so what?! Seriously though, thank you. If I […]
