hey dude this is Aaron collins from little thousand (r.i.p.) anyways, I know this is last minute, but I'm freaking out because we need musicians to play tomorrow night (Tues. Nov. 30) between 6 and 1030. SO far my band is playing last for about forty five minutes tops. I'm playing a solo set for about an hour and there's some maybes. The show is at Baba Budan's and it's a benefit for the drop in center downtown. Contact me asap, if you could provide an hour of music that would be stellar

Thanks for your support man. Shows, they'll be a happening, we're going low key at first, but will let you know.  We're working on a couple of things but don't have the dates yet. Maybe we can share a bill sometime with one of your fine organizations. See you soon, M
