we'll miss your old home, yazoo.

yazoo brewery, my third home (a close follow up to mercy lounge), is officially closing their doors at marathon village and heading to the gulch. not that i've been here for years or anything, and certainly not that i've lived or worked there, but i do love that place.

plus, after my very nice, albeit expensive, sweater--i'm ready to promo yazoo wherever i may roam.

(p.s.--if you live anywhere in yazoo's distribution area: tennessee...etc,
check out hop project #27. just got bo
ttled. it tastes like the milk of the gods. and i'm pretty sure it gives you the ability to see through people's clothes. but only the attractive ones)
and then, whilst you drink a bottle of hop project #27 or the pale ale, listen to this band:


I call the one in the back center. Hailing from Springfield, MO, these 4 guys put out what they call, "foot stomping indie rock." Annnnnd, I wouldn't disagree. I think part of the reason I have taken such a liking to them is through their use of Dostoevsky in a lyric. ( I saw someone mention this elsewhere and immediately took notice.) Nothing like a good literary reference to catch my attention.

Oh, and Ha Ha Tonka is the name of a state park in Missouri. Look at that. They're nature lovers. Humanitarians. Naturalists. Also. I have no idea how I heard of these guys. I literally think I just stumbled across them one day. Maybe saw their name on Paste or something. But here they are, having conveniently fallen into my lap...ooooohhhhhhh....a girl can only hope.
