Day 19
National "Play Monopoly Day"
Play an album you can somehow tie to the game, for example, maybe one of the pieces is used in the cover art or one of the streets are referenced.

I usually picked the boot or car for my game piece, although I played Star Wars Monopoly most recently and even that was 20+ years ago. I honestly can't stand the game.

Nancy Sinatra – Boots
Reprise Records – RS 6202, 1966/1968

Pressed at RCA Records Pressing Plant, Indianapolis

Arlo Parks - Collapsed in Sunbeams


A bit of a stretch, but she seems quite comfortable in the space created for this photoshoot - so much so that I imagine it to be Parks' Place...

(I'll show myself out...)

I love everything you all came up with for Monopoly day! I was worried it was going to be a tough one but you all nailed it.

Wish I had a living room big enough to host one of the live shows. Such a cool touring model.

I think it was my only option, as far as I know. Or else I'd have to dive into my cds as I have an Against Me! one in there somewhere.
