Are we entering into repeat offender territory??
Probably, but I don’t think any of you will complain. I also find it funny that the only two guys I have featured twice on hump day are British. Anglophile to the core. 
For more Gavin love, check out my first hump.

I’m going to forgo my typical list format today, because nothing is more magical (to me) than a Bush show. And that’s how I spent my Cinco de Mayo, so you get an entire post about it! I know you’re excited. If you are not, feel free to mosey along.

311 has been one of my favorite bands for a very long time. In fact, I remember blasting their self-titled item in my mom’s car when I was about 14 as we pulled into a McDonald’s drive thru and the cashier complimenting me on my amazing taste in music (naturally). Ever since, they remind me of sunny days, the ocean and my youth. I especially love listening to them on gorgeous summer days with the windows down – it gives me this wonderful feeling of utter happiness and like anything is possible. I secretly desire to go on their cruise (it leaves out of Miami), but I just haven’t been able to justify the cost (yet). With that said, I’ve always had quite the thing for lead singer/guitarist, Nick Hexum. Blame it on the shimmy, the crusty 90′s bleached hair (so bad) or just his rugged good looks, either way, I was hooked.
I remember being so excited to finally see them live at Warped Tour 2001. Unfortunately, I had one of those terrible concert moments where I collapsed due to heat/claustrophobia within the first song and had to be carried out of the crowd. Thankfully, I was able to wake up and watch from afar, but I won’t lie: it’s made me want to see them the right way ever since. One day, one day. Until then, check out these lovely pictures of Mr. Hexum.
I wanted to keep with the theme this week, but at the same time did not want to sacrifice Hump Day (I know it’s all your favorite post of the week), and then it came to me: I haven’t featured the wonderfully talented and beautiful Lenny Kravitz! Perfect. Now although a whole new generation will only know him as Cinna, Katniss’ assigned soft-spoken stylist for the games, he has always been one of my favorite musicians. I must have seen Lenny play live about 5 times during my high school and undergraduate career – I couldn’t get enough of him. I mean, who could? He is gorgeous and made some amazing music. The hubs even had one of his songs, Believe, on the list of songs he wanted to sing to me at our wedding (and when he did a test run, I cried like a baby – thank god it didn’t make the cut). I’m crossing my fingers that he does Cinna justice – he was definitely one of my favorite characters in the series.
Do you think he’ll do a good job, Tributes?
