Now that the frenzy over fireworks is through, we're settling into our summer routine. This year, that seems to mean an extra amount of lawn-mowing and weed-clearing, thanks to all the rain. Ah well, we'll salve our mosquito bites and head out to the patios this weekend — because that's a summer staple, too.
Some of our member shows are taking breaks for the season, so our playlists might be shorter than usual in July and August. Never fear, we'll still bring the weekly roundup to your inbox. Pop in those earbuds while you toil in the yard and enjoy the sun, however briefly it may appear.
