Mumford & Sons

I am extremely unqualified to talk about new music, due to the fact I pretty much exclusively listen to Hall & Oates, the Band, Neil Young and the Talking Heads. Despite this, I really believe the Mumford & Sons album "Sigh No More" is awesome. This was originally going to be a best albums of 2010 post, but I realized the only albums released in 2010 that I listened to were "Sigh No More" and the Drive-By Truckers 2010 album "The Big To-Do. Please let me know if you've got any recommendations for me.



Mumford & Sons "Sigh No More"

Favorite Songs on Album- Winter Winds, Roll Away Your Stone, White Blank Page.

Old Virginny

Volunteer Traditions Virginia Cap

Oh, to be home again,
Down in old Virginny,
With my very best friend,
They call him Ragtime Willie.
I can't wait to sniff that air,
Dip'n snuff, I won't have no care,
That big Rockin' Chair won't go nowhere.

Gunboat

Another great band out of Oxford, MS. I was fortunate enough to see them a few times at Proud Larry's, during my time at Ole Miss. There are a few songs on their Myspace. Check them out, great porch music.

Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS, SHITTER WAS FULL!!!!!

The Versatile Barbour Rear Game Pocket

While some prefer the shorter length and closed sleeves of the Barbour Bedale, I'm personally a fan of the Barbour Beaufort. While I actually do prefer the longer cut of the Beaufort, the real reason I prefer the Beaufort is due to the rear game pocket. I've found this pocket to be infinitely useful. While originally designed for the field, it is just as versatile in an urban setting.

During my weekday Metro commute, I use it to carry a variety of things- the latest issue of Garden & Gun, LSAT materials, a vest-if I need an additional layer, beverages and snacks-basically anything I could need.
On the weekends, it is equally as useful- sneaking hooch into sporting/social events, carrying groceries or dog accessories- the game pocket really is the best thing about my Barbour.

Though the new Barbour Middleburn Jacket, despite not featuring a game pocket is tempting.........

James Mercer-Journey Through the Past

Neil Young is one of my favorite artists, but John Mercer's version blows the original out of the water, in my opinion. This song is yet another reason to see 180 Degrees South, if the adventure of journeying from Mexico to Patagonia via sail boat wasn't enough for you.

Christmas List

Barbour Storm Half Zip-Layering is key.
