I missed last week’s show. It’s not something I do on the regular, but it couldn’t be helped — I got called to Austin, TX on business. It wasn’t bad — Austin is a great town — but it was on enough short notice that I didn’t have a chance to make note of the show’s cancellation. So to anyone who noticed, sorry.

Ain’t nothing special about this week’s show, just another train wreck mix of rap music. Enjoy…
