Okay, we should get this year's mix going in earnest as it's going to be stupidly hot and humid here this weekend. If you posted in the previous thread, don't worry, I'll go back for those (unless you want to amend).
Same rules as usual:
1. The theme is "Summer". You're free to interpret that as you'd like.
2. Put your nominations in a Spoiler box.
3. You may nominate up to 3 songs. Any further nominations will be ignored.
4. Unless we get an insane amount of nominations for some reason, everyone's first choice is automatically in. The rest of the mix will be filled out with the other nominations.
Also, toss out a list if you feel like it.

Today's listening is I Am Easy to Find by some band called The National. Anyone else going to Rock the Garden tomorrow?
My dad will be there I guess. I sent him a few albums to catch up with. He's already been on The Beths train for awhile now.
I will be there in time for The Beths.
Not for the $70+ they wanted.
Ticket price is quite often the main reason I don't go to more shows (with a 2 yr old being a close second and living out in the country in 3rd). Maybe I'm just cheap, but there seems like very few acts I will pay the price they're asking.
I know it's been out for over a year now, but "If We Were Vampires" has been my go-to song for like a week. No idea why I'm on that kick.
I'd never head it before the concert a couple of weeks ago, but yeah, it's a heck of a tune.
i'm going to assume this is a nomination.
It'd be my 4th (I commented my 3 in the prior thread), but if you need filler, hell yeah.
ahh. gotcha.
Is there a track listing from last year? I can't remember if I put a song on it, and need a quick reference. ?
There is a link literally at the top of this post.
I clicked the 2018 link and still can't find the track listing.
