So, I'm moving into my new house.
It's been a process, but that's okay. I set up the stereo. I bought some kick ass second hand furniture. I bought a fridge.
And most importantly, I am going to start putting up some artwork. This will make this house my home.
How about you? What makes where you live your actual home?
Music first! Then quilts my grandma made(my blankies, lol).
After that, pictures/art, candles, and getting the kitchen set up.
Ahh, but what music, grasshopper...?
Oooooooh, so much! Classic rock such as Eagles, Stones, Jackson Browne; 90’s alternative like Offspring, Nirvana, Beck, Counting Crows; country such as Dixie Chicks, Johnny Cash, Vince Gill; bluegrass-the greats such as The Osborne Brothers, new Alison Krsuss; Celtic/world—including Lorena McKennit; then bits and pieces of others! Tom Petty, Sarah MacLachlan, Sheryl Crow..,.???
@BethDavis But I'm not getting the indie folk love here. Fleet Foxes. Gillian Welch. Mumford and Sons. I could go on....
Ah, yes! Gillian’s ‘Pass You By’ and ‘Wrecking Ball’..,love Mumford, Fleet Foxes, Lumineers, the Walkmen. Just discovered Band of Horses, First Aid Kit, Milk Carton Kids...Chris Knight for crying in your beer(great live). My taste is very eclectic: good is good!
My playlists go on for days.
I forgot NIN, Alice In Chains, Collective Soul, THE WHITE STRIPES! I could do this forever, lol.
@CarolinaGirl60 First Aid Kit!!! You are a legend for that namecheck!
@CarolinaGirl60 Okay, I'll go there - do you know The Tallest Man on Earth?
I like! Reminds me of John Prine crossed with Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
I can’t share the You Tube in this comment(on a phone), but: Lucinda Williams? Hot Blood, Lake Charles, Minneapolis...also, from the TV soundtrack ‘Nashville Season 1’: Something Stronger.
Setting up the stereo. Getting out my bass. Hanging some framed fossils on the wall.
