Month recap: LCD Soundsystem, North Carolina trip, & Scary Pockets

 Well it's been quite a month, between work, travel and family, lots of stuff to catch up on.

Had a pact with family to see LCD Soundsystem should they get back together again and tour - and wouldn't you know it - they did!

It was honestly an absolutely fantastic experience that was even better shared.



Here's a fun video taken from the opening song of the concert:

(I can't even describe how INTENSE the bass was!  My ribs were vibrating!)



I love the lyrics to so many of these songs, but "tonite" is a particular favorite.





We also welcomed a little lady into the family, she's the sweetest:


I took on a bunch of cover work for a few comic book publishers (more on that when I can show the art) as well as an updated logo and t-shirt for our friend's restaurant Uxlocale.  Andy and I are also deep into pages for a few projects, Andy with Makimono and Penguin, and me with Penguin Random House and some indie stuff.

I went to visit family for a week, which was a lovely experience and really good for the heart and soul.  More relatives came in and we had a great time with a large group of us, my sister and her husband being excellent hosts and all around great people.

Edge of Urge was such a great find!

Also enjoyed a fantastic meal at Circa 1922, and had a fun time at my sister's cast party when she was done with her show at Thalian. (pictured above)  She even took me back stage to see where she does her makeup and hang her costumes.  

The cast party was at a really fun bar/live music venue called "Where Eagles Dare":



As was the pizza & arcade at Cugino Forno:



Got to finally meet this little guy and it was a blast and a half!





It was so wonderful for the three of us sisters to be in the same place at the same time, especially with birthdays in the family and anniversaries overlapping.  Lots of family time, some Mario Cart, and IPAs.

My sister got me hooked on these two covers:


Scary Pockets "The Chain" (Fleetwood Mac cover)




Scary Pockets "Stayin' Alive" (BeeGees cover)
