Are you ready for the weekend?

This weekend the best date EVAH! and I will be packing up to see in an out-of-town concert. Mike Pinto is an indie artist that is worth looking up.

But if you're not as motivated to break out of the Jacksonville area, here are some other great options for you a little closer to home.

Get out and have some fun, friends. And remember, if you're bored in Jacksonville ... it's your own fault.
