4.20 Bonnaroo

"I’m waking up to see the sun.

It’s a light that lets me know a new day’s begun.

I can leave behind the tears of my unconscious mind,

To the sunshine."

-Into the Sunshine, Julia Nunes

So, I was putting this off because I had no idea what to write about. Then YouTube happened. So, today Julia Nunes posted a video for the first time in a long while. Now you must know, I ADORE Julia Nunes. She's pretty much why I started playing ukulele over a year ago. Anyway, she posted a ton of new tour dates.

Now, for the past month of checking artist's tour dates, I've also checked for the June dates I'll be in Nashville, because it has some pretty sweet low key venues. So, I saw Julia would be an hour out of Nashville the same weekend I'm there. At this point, my hopes skyrocketed. Seeing Julia Nunes in concert would probably make my summer. Anyway, she's performing at the music festival Bonnaroo. Look at that line-up. LOOK at that line up. Pheonix, Regina Spektor, Ingrid Michaelson, and Julia Nunes alone would be fantastic. (Not to mention The Temper Trap, Needtobreathe, Okgo, Bo Burnham, Weezer, Conan O' Brain) All of this? Pure bliss. Oh my goodness.

But it's expensive. And from as far as I can tell, you have to stay the whole weekend.

Hopes back down. Juliaaaaaaa, I'll see you someday. I will.

This was a sad blog, but I had a good day. Promise.
