Today’s Playlist – The Eldan Song<\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

So after the dark and wanderlust thoughts I had in my last posting with Jay’s (and my) past, separate as they may be, I wanted something a bit lighter on balance. So here is more of Jay’s wanderlust moments in his travels as he tours the globe.<\/p>\n

Rather than babble on about it, I thought I’d simply present it for what it is. Jay getting lost in Israel and then gifting us with a cute little number at the end. I swear this guy is a song writing genius.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n

I SOOOO want the picture of him in the Dead Sea on a T-Shirt. I think it’s fucking brilliant!<\/p>\n

The Always, Then & Now Tour…<\/span><\/h2>\n

Please check out his site<\/a> with links for his upcoming shows. I am definitely a late comer to the Brannan bandwagon whenever he pulls through my city. But now that I am going this year, I am making it a goal never to miss when he swings through town. I hope you take advantage of the opportunity as well. Also be sure to check out his web store at the following link<\/a>.<\/p>\n
