Starting the weekend off with watching the #Cavs live for the first time this season. This is also my first #NBACup game ever, and this court will take some getting used to.
The Cavaliers have won in DC every time I've been in attendance, hoping the streak continues.

Concert #20 of 2025 is Cautious Clay at the Atlantis in DC. Saw him before at Newport Jazz Festival but his set was a disaster due to tech issues, hoping he has a better time tonight.
Elujay is opening, so I'm excited to see him live fir the first time.

Concert #18 of 2025 is NxWorries (with Rae Khalil opening) at the Fillmore in Silver Spring MD. Sucks that the #Guardians couldn't come through earlier, but this is a solid consolation prize lol.

Capping off vacation with my first-ever USL match! Watching Rhode Island FC (and #Crew96 alum Noah Fuson) take on Detroit City FC here in Pawtucket.
Tidewater Stadium is lovely and super easy to get to, so off to a great start.

At Fenway Park for the first time ever to watch #RedSox vs #Royals tonight and this crowd fucking ROCKS. It's Dominican Heritage Night though so that feels like cheating a little bit.

Newport Jazz Festival Day 3 was a perfect cap on the weekend!
Isaiah Sharkey and Kiefer played two of the best live solos I've ever heard, Christian McBride's Big Band killed their set, and it was an honor to see De La Soul again.
Off to Boston for Leg 2 of vacation.

Newport Jazz Festival Day 2 was spectacular for both weather and the artists performing!
Carrtoons, Samm Henshaw, and Flying Lotus were the highlights for sets I checked out. VERY much looking forward to Samm's next album based on his set, he crushed it.

Newport Jazz Festival Day 1 was incredible as always, with perfect weather too!
Finally saw Yussef Dayes Experience and Thee Sacred Souls live, and would highly encourage everyone who sees this to watch both bands in concert. Elijah Fox is a COLD keys player.

It's the middle of the 3rd inning and Newpprt is down 8-1. On top of that, Newport has no DH and started the 3rd inning with a position player pitching. As I'm typing, two separate players almost died from a flying bat.
This is rapidly approaching @sickoscommittee.org conditions.

Continuing my Newport Jazz Festival tradition of watching a Newport Gulls collegiate summer league baseball game.
I think James Karinchak was the last #Guardians player to play for the Gulls before making the big leagues.

Concert #13 of 2025 was a matinee concert of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra playing select works from George Gershwin.
Was my first time ever at Strathmore Music Hall, and honestly it's a really nice venue. Super excited to see Herbie Hancock here in November!

Game 1 of 2 was a 31-24 USA Women's over Fiji. USA started strong with two quick tries, but Fiji capitalized after USA let their foot off the gas and made a bunch if mistakes.
USA Men's v. England is next!
