Only 13 years in the making...
and I love my new ride!
(I must admit, it's a bit weird driving something from this century!)
Marina and the Diamonds has only been to Salt Lake City twice-- and I've been there both times, front and center (wearing my handmade bright pink Marina tank top, of course). Performing some of my favorite tunes from The Family Jewels, ElectraHeart and Froot, Marina put on a damn good show! Come back again soon now, ya hear! I'll see ya there.
Scottish electronic band CHVRCHES may have just dropped one of my top albums of the 2015! It's been on a loop all month long. Favorite Tracks Include: Leave a Trace, Keep You On My Side, High Enough to Carry You Over and Empty Threat.
I'm checking in to Season 5 for an extended stay.
A woman gives up her prestigious job and upscale Manhattan apartment to search for love in California. Lively musical numbers and a refreshing, energetic lead, Rachel Bloom, make Crazy Ex-Girlfriend a charming, eccentric commentary on human relationships. -RT
Electropop, Alternative rock, Dance-punk, and Synthpop band YACHT just released their sixth studio album where it instantly found its way into heavy rotation. Favorite tracks include: I Thought the Future Would Be Cooler, Matter, Don't Be Rude and LA Plays Itself.
Mrs. Clinton had a very good October.
And it all started with a very special (and she-larious) visit to her SNL doppelgänger. Maybe Kate McKinnon should just be her running mate?

Portlandia Season 5 is now available on Netflix, and it's one of it's strongest outings yet! Taking on everything from tiny houses, the Post Office, healthcare, Sea World, fashion and the 4th of July... Carrie and Fred left me in stitches this month!
Nom nom nom! Thanks in part to an out of town visitor (See #15) I dined out (a lot!) this month; revisiting some old favorites and discovering plenty of new joints. It's fantastic that there are so many delicious options where I live. If you visit Sawadee, Blue Lemon, Squatters Brew Pub, Taqueria 27, Johanna's Restaurant, The Original Pancake House, Simply Sushi, Tsunami, Blue Plate Diner or Hub & Spoke, you'll leave a happy camper with a full and belly. Great, now I'm hungry again!
An outwardly perfect suburban housewife leads a secret life as a psychopathic killer in this gleefully dark satire. When the woman's crimes -- all committed to uphold her vision of family values -- are revealed, the housewife becomes a media sensation, winning the hearts of millions. Serial Mom may have came out way back in 1994, but thanks to HBO Go, it's won over my heart too! Finally!
I stumbled upon Black-ish thanks to Hulu's auto-play, and boy I'm glad I did. It's provocative, timely and most of all hilarious! Like the Clevers, the Connors, the Tanners that came before, the Johnson clan has already found a way become a favorite classic TV family. (Oh, and I also kinda have a bit of a crush on hot Tracee Ellis Ross!)
In the lawless border area stretching between the U.S. and Mexico, an idealistic FBI agent [Blunt] is enlisted by an elite government task force official to aid in the escalating war against drugs. 'Led by outstanding work from Emily Blunt and Benicio del Toro, Sicario is a taut, tightly wound thriller with much more on its mind than attention-getting set pieces.' -RT
These singles rocked my world this month. We haven't heard or seen much of Mackelmore, Jake Shears(!♥) and especially looking at you Ms. Adele! Welcome back. My ears are happy for your return. Listen and Love:
Mackelmore and Ryan Lewis' Downtown
Adele's Hello.
NERVO feat. Kylie Minogue, Jake Shears & Nile Rodgers' The Other Boys.
