and my nightmares will have nightmares every night:

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Memorial Day - along with spending time with loved ones and ignoring the less than ideal weather most of us are used to for this time of year, do remember the true reason behind why this holiday exists (though let's be honest, today is b-e-a-utiful). A big thank you is necessary.

A special, dare I say SUPER special, edition of Mixtape Monday is coming your way, just 'cause. This week the tunes are brought to you by my dear friend Matt Talmage of Man In A Crowd. The band hails from the New York City area, so if that's also where you call home or near where, keep an eye out for shows around the area. If you remember, the debut album from his band Man In A Crowd was on NBH's top album list from last year. He and I often share music with each other through Spotify, so there's no one better to give you two, yes, I said it TWO playlists for today.
