Remember how I told you to go see Sonny and the Sunsets last night? I really hope some of you took my advice because that was one of the best shows I’ve seen in quite some time. Just pure energy and incredible musicianship and sometimes his hands were moving so fast on that guitar it was like hummingbird wings and everyone was dancing and it was amazing. If they were playing again tonight I would go.
Guys.

Down the street at Black Cat, Gardens and Villa played an awesome, but too-short set.
