Hey Sammy! I am sure you have plans, but in case you don't, I am going to be playing at Mercury Lounge on Valentines Day... Stop out for as sec if you can... Show starts at 9.
thanks for the comment, but im really just a music lover, like you. but, i think going to all these concerts will eventually kill me, or the RIAA will kill me for posting all the music, and then im hoping to be canonized as the patron saint of mix tapes. do i have your vote? can i get an amen?! ha! thanks for listening!
thanks for the add! be sure to stop by every week, or so, for s'more new music and some fab, fab stuff from the days of yore. and if you're still hungry, sign up for my free song of the week! thanks for listening! +mt
