I've driven down the highway 1 just hopin'...

So it's been hinted by a few people that I should actually use this as a blog instead of just a replacement for my radio show. So I will... do both.

I went to Dublin this weekend. Left on thursday night and got back today. It was really a mellow trip. Me and Lindsey met up and took the bus out to the Beauvais airport. Let me just say that if you're thinking of coming to Paris, don't fly in or out of that airport. It sucks. There's an hour and 15 minute bus ride from Paris... lame...and it costs 13 euros each way. So we got to Dublin late at night and crashed. The hostel was pretty good except for the loud Italian women that were in the room. I'd never done an 8 room hostel situation before and I have to say that it's kinda annoying having to deal with people that much but it's also really cheap. Because I can sleep through a hurricane, I will probably do it again. But if you're a light sleeper, you might want to consider a really cheap hotel or something else that has separate rooms.
We walked the whole city a few hundred times just seeing everything. I think we walked over 15 miles Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Not that much I guess, but we covered a very significant amount of ground without any usage of the city bus. We saw all the sights (I honestly don't think we missed anything really) but didn't go in anything because it woulda probably been lame and it all cost money with the exception of the museums and galleries which were worthwhile. Sunday was really tight because it was a foggy lazy day and we walked around, saw a good portion of the Phoenix Park, went to the modern museum, and met up with my homie Dave in a pretty mellow pub. If you ever go to dublin, make sure to go to the Porterhouse that's right on the edge of the Temple Bar area. It is maybe the only microbrew in a city overpopulated with Guinness taps and besides offering a wide selection of good brews, has 4 floors and live music later at night. Classic Rock Lindsey was a super big fan of the band that played Saturday night. I realized their talent but didn't connect with all the music since that's not what I listen to.

So there you go. My weekend in a nutshell.

Music time.

#14 Electric Feel -MGMT (i don't need any explanation on this one. if it hasn't been in your top 100 songs for the past at least 6 months it should have been)
&
#15 Detonate - LAZRtag (a little repetitive at times i know, but a great club jam none the less)

...that i'd see you soon.
