All right, mothahuggas, I’m pretty sure you don’t need me to tell you what day it is, but just know that it is time to bust out your fanciest Party Pants and get on down this evening. Personally I will be pre-gaming in Lewiston this evening, playing on a flat bed truck with a classic rock cover band to raise some funds for those affected by the fires, but when I return I’m going to be shaking it all over town. Why? Why not! There’s a plethora of badass things to check out, so join me in doing it to it this fine Friday evening. Here we go!

Ahhhh, we are so close that I can almost taste the copious amounts of vodka I will be indulging in this weekend. Granted I will probably start ingesting some amount of vodka this evening, but you get my point. Anyway, without fail Thursday brings the thunder so throw on those Party Jorts and get ready to boogie.

I hate to play favorites, I really do, but Wednesday are kind of one of my favorite days of the week. Sure, Thursday, Friday, and of course, Saturday are exciting times, but it’s always nice to be able to properly bust out your Party Pants early in the week and Hump Day always seems to have that going on for it, so let’s check out what’s crackin’ this wonderful Wednesday evening.

I know that I might sound like a broken record, but I am so incredibly thankful and overwhelmingly happy that it is Friday. This week really did its best to beat me down, but in the words on Sir Elton, I’m still standing – and entirely ready to hike up my Party Pants and put a hurtin’ on this Friday evening. So, let’s see what’s in store for us, shall we? Here we go!

Something about sunny days and climbing temperatures makes it very difficult to be productive and/or responsible. I’m just going to keep my eye on the prize and hurdle this hump just like everyone else, thankfully there’s a light at the end of this Hump Day tunnel as there are a bunch of great shows to check out all around town. So power on through this Wednesday and reward yourself with adult beverages and good tunes this evening.

Ohhh, Thursday, you’re trying to be wicked tricky, trying to disguise yourself as part of the weekend with the massive amount of fun things to do and see tonight! I think that means we should pace ourselves and get it going tonight as it is, after all, thirsty Thursday and the party starts now!

I’ve already been going pretty hard this week and I don’t see signs of anything letting up right on through the weekend so might as well hoist up this midweek Party Pants and settle on in for the ride. If we can hurdle this hump we’ll be on the home stretch towards the freakin’ weekend, so let’s power on through this Hump Day, shall we?
