FAMOUS FORECAST

You know it’s fall when the streets are filled with colorful scarves and classic Barber jackets, so keep enjoying this fall weather because it’s not going anywhere! Temperatures are in the mid 50’s this morning but will get up in the high 60’s just in time for happy hour.


WEDNESDAY JAM

Brought to you by Tazewell Jones of FamousDC

Ok, autumn. We see you out there, and we’re going to celebrate you. What better way than with music, an art form so emotive that it often elicits from within us very visceral memories of people, places, and yes, even times and seasons.

Death Cab for Cutie’s 2005 album “Plans” first hit record store shelves at that summer’s end, on August 30. The timing wasn’t coincidental, with overt references within its lyrics to summer’s end, and sounds reminiscent of cooler temperatures. “Soul Meets Body” was the first single from Plans, released exactly 11 years ago yesterday, and today it’s our Song of the Day. Go ahead and give it a listen. We bet you’ll feel fall.

Like what you’ve heard? We thought so. You can find “Soul Meets Body” and other autumn sounds on our latest, aptly titled Spotify playlist.


WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

The good news is, the second debate is over. The bad news, there’s one more. The good news, we’ll be there – join us in Vegas.

THIS DAY IN HISTORY

Raise your mugs and boots of beer today at your favorite German beer gardens in D.C. because on this day in 1810, the tradition of Oktoberfest was officially founded.
