A week of music and Abbeys

This week in work-land, music came to the forefront as my job thrust me into the worlds of One Direction (a new boy band...) and Rodrigo y Gabriela (a fabulous guitar duo) among others. I had actually heard some music from Rodrigo y Gabriela before...I missed my chance to see them at ACL a few years ago—at least as evidenced by the fact that "Diablo Rojo" is on the sampler I got from that ACL trip. Amazing talent. As for One Direction, they are just fun, fluffy entertainment.

On the home front, I've been visiting the home of Lord Grantham on Downton Abbey. It is as good as I had heard, with the intrigue and personalities all well flushed out. And I don't know enough about the time period to notice any flaws, which I'm considering a good thing. Can't wait for the next disc to come!
