Sure wish I could've caught last week's Two Cow Garage show in Fort Collins. I see so few shows these days (ie, none) - I'm in favor of lunchtime brownbag performances, but something tells me 2CG might not sound the same in the bright sunlight. While we await the band's pending album, please enjoy this citation from one of my favorite songs of all time:
You were short skirts and combat boots / I'm plastic army men. / A plastic soldier til death or / streetlights bring me in. / You Romeo and Juliet / Me Jack and Diane.Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, indeed. This Episode coincided with our launch into KRFC's Spring Membership Drive, where the sound of crickets presided over the proceedings. Thanks to those who stepped forward, and I look forward to hearing from everyone else as R&B brings the drive to a halt next weekend. Thanks to Tarnation's Andy D, the hardest working man in lawn care sales, who braved a death-rattle cough to share a 4-hour studio shift with me this week. Next week, I'll be joined by KRFC's newest programmer, Fast Eddie.
