Great show man, see ’em if you can. I’m in Irving all week if you’re free for a libation.
Can’t wait for this!
Just the titles “Cigarettes and Wine” and “The Last Song I Will Write” have me intrigued.
are you still in irving? there is a new “texas music” venue in irving (Cadillac Ranch), it might be worth having a brew at??
