Makeup

Although I didn't know it when I chose the album to listen to, I recently reviewed the self-titled debut of "We The Three" the sibling trio from the 13th season of America's Got Talent. I don't watch AGT, and never heard of these semifinalists, but I'm glad I stumbled on to them. A very talented and good group of singers/musicians, the group's songs are filled with emotions. I really enjoyed many of their songs, including "Makeup" and "Running." The lead singer has a very Shawn Mendes vibe and perhaps a little Ed Sheeran as well. Plus they heavily feature the trumpet (which I play in a rock band), so that is sweet. I mean it is still modern pop, so I don't love it, but as far as it goes, it isn't too shabby.

Anyway, I am on to the finals of my main redraft fantasy football league! I fell in the semis in another league, while in dynasty I managed to win a consolation match-up.

As for photos, I have a massive amount from the past two weeks (Nov. 29-Dec. 11). Enjoy.

Mine

I had a read a TON of positive reviews before I actually got a listen to The 1975's latest album, "A Brief Inquiry into Online Relationships." However, despite a few tracks that really stood out, especially the ballad "Mine," I did not think as positively. I really enjoyed the band's first two albums. Listened to them front to back many, many times. However, a couple listens through of this, and I just didn't quite get it. Maybe it went over my head, or I need more listens, but apart from a couple tracks, I didn't really get into it.

The regular season ended in two of my four fantasy football leagues, and I made the playoffs in both! I will be in quarterfinal match-ups this week. In the other two leagues, I'm still in contention, but need big weeks in order to make playoffs there. Wish me luck!

I have some photos to share from the girls basketball opener and the Flyers boys home hockey opener from Nov. 27. Enjoy.
