The last sliver of warm weather has disappeared, it gets dark at 5 p.m. nowadays, and Penn State football is on a bye week. On top of all of that, Penn State is coming off a tough loss against Northwestern. It’s understandable to feel a little blue on this chilly November Monday. In this edition of Music Monday, we’re pairing our gloomy mood with equally melancholy music: good old blues. Indulge your grieving soul with a little B.B. King and Wilco for the day. Just remember: better days are (hopefully) on the horizon.
