So many shows...

I saw Jake Bellows and Alessi last night at the Goofy Foot Lodge. It was a great show. Alessi is this singer-songwriter from London who spends quite a good amount of time in Omaha -- she's great. She's kind of freak-folk with less emphasis on the freak part, plus she's pretty endearing live and really nice and she's got a great voice. Jake Bellows from Neva Dinova also sang some back up with her, and their voices play really well off each other.

Well, there are a ton of possible shows to go to this weekend and into the next week. It's a little overwhelming. My tentative schedule looks like this:

Tonight: Honeybee, Talking Mountain and The Lisps @ PS Collective
Saturday: Thunder Power!!! and Tilly and the Wall @ The Waiting Room
Sunday: Flowers Forever and more @ The Waiting Room or Orenda Fink @ O'Leavers
Monday: Times New Viking and more @ The Waiting Room
Tuesday: UUVVWWZ and more @ Brothers

That's 5 straight days. I don't think I can make it. I'm not quite feeling 100% and I don't want to push it and then get more sick. Also, I should aim to try to keep at least some of my hearing for my 50s and beyond. I'm going to aim for 3 out of the 5. I think that's do-able.
