Is the week already half over? Or is the weekend 50% more within reach? It’s been a fun one so far, and tonight, I am checking out The Chloe and hitting the Bahamas show afterward at The Basement East, so I am stoked about that doubleheader. Come hang!

Also, it’s Win Stuff Wednesday, so throw yourself a little preemptive party in your mind for when you win, and put your name in the hat for all of the fun things coming our way this May.

We love giveaways like this guy love trains (sound on), and one that we know he would approve is America the Beautiful: National Parks & Landmarks by Rail happening on May 2nd at Cheekwood Botanical Gardens & Estate. It’s one of those exhibits that feels more like a full-on experience than your average stroll through the gardens, with 10 running trains, more than 850 feet of track, iconic scenery, and a chance to “travel” a bit without leaving your seat. We’re giving away 4 seats on the May 31st trek, so harness the pure joy, and catch a ride!*

WIN STUFF WEDNESDAY

Today’s Win Stuff Wednesday is a reminder that rather than just more actual “Stuff”, we like to gift our loyal fans and friends with experiences! Nothing beats (or takes up less space in your closet than) seeing a killer rock show, your favorite comedian on-stage roasting that loud guy up front, or settling in with family and friends at one of the many upcoming festivals. Check out the latest possibilities and sign up for as many as your heart desires.

BONUS: Today’s Instagram WSW post is up for Whiskey, Wine and Whiskers, and this is one you won’t want to miss, especially if you love strong drinks, petting dogs, and spending money for a good cause!
