Hello 2007!
Can you believe it's April already? As always, SXSW was a busy busy time last month, hope everyone that made it enjoyed themselves regardless if they played or not. Aside from various projects with people and bands and events since the summer, the CD is out!! 15 bands from CA to NY and in between are featured on it. If you'd like a copy, see the music page. We'll be starting on the next one this summer and we'll send out email to members once we're ready to begin the project.
