Or the Brew By Me?
March 18, 2008
It was the Brew Bayou in the Alumni Memorial Center.
Whew!

(Took this picture from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal’s website after finding it there via a Google Image search for the logo. No logo, but yeah, this was the place.)
Rockin’ Ben Folds
March 18, 2008
I’ve never made an official list of my all-time favorite albums, but if I did – this one would totally be on it:
Rockin’ the Suburbs – Ben Folds

Partly, I think the reason is the memories. I remember the coffee shop I spent countless late-night hours at drinking something with the name Triple in it while I was at Marquette. They played this album ALL the time, and everytime I hear it I can remember the smell of coffee, the sound of Ben Fold’s piano, and the cold air that sat right around the front doors.
What was the name of that place? It was the one in the student union, right across the street from… wow, I can’t believe I can’t remember the names of these places. I know I lived in Schroeder.
I’ll have to get back to you on that one. Either way – this album makes me happy. And provided the perfect escape during a crappy work day.
And now I’m craving coffee.
